NYC Smooch Proof Lip stain 16h Review

After the slight disappointment in Elf's Lip Stain in Pink Petal I bought this one from NYC. Click here to read the review for Elf's Pink Petal.

NYC Smooch Proof Lipstain 16h 
#495 Endless Spice

I love this color. As you can see it is akin to a bright red lipstick. Especially, in comparison to my natural lip color. I have to admit I really thought this would be a brownish color because of the name, don't you think?

Here, I've added an un-tinted lip balm and finished the lips in the color.

This is an update 3 hours later after eating one meal and 12 oz of water (I drink a lot of water.) As you can see its completely gone. 16 hours indeed.

This lip stain is drying but nothing too terrible. I also happen to be obsessed with lip balms so my lips are VERY hydrated.

I'm still a huge fan. I'll just be looking for higher quality and longer lasting versions.

After having the Elf lip stain for three days it dried up (read about that here) So, I always store these upside down so the liquid in the tube is always in the tip.

Thank you for following along!
