9 to 5 Lipstick

As a professional woman, you pride yourself on leaving a good impression everywhere you go. That impression however doesn’t include lipstick prints. Tired of everything your lips touch wearing your lipstick?

“Finding a lipstick that actually sticks is a common problem,” Ebony Crawley, expert makeup artist and owner of ProStyle Makeup tells PINK. “Besides finding a lipstick that stays, I recommend using a reverse lip liner.” It’s a clear liner that goes on the perimeter of your lips to prevent smudging. It can also be used like a lipstick primer to prevent feathering and allow the lipstick to last longer.

Here are five lipsticks that last:

If you’re looking for long-lasting color and lips that won’t crack under pressure, try Sephora’s Maniac Long Wearing Lipstick – it contains a special hydrating formula that keeps the color moist and in place.

Voted as one of Redbook’s Most Valuable Products, the best thing about Maybelline Superstay, besides the under $10 price tag, is that the two-step system actually works!

Addict Lipstick by Dior is a weightless formula that will stay on, no matter how many sips of coffee you take.

Need a little protection? Aqualumiere Sheer Colour Lipshine SPF 15 by Chanel has got you covered – literally.
