Affordable Long Lasting Lipsticks – A Good Christmas Ideas For Her

Christmas is nearly approaching and some of us might having a hard time to decide what Christmas presents for a woman. My suggestion is long lasting lipsticks below with reviews:


 (Recommended for REAL long lasting)
The kiss and stay name is truly describe this lip gloss. A present gift received by my mother from my aunt in London. And beyond my curiosity, I tried it without reading the product name. Till I’m surprised that after an hour and finished our dinner, the lipstick stays. It really lasts 8-10 hours. This lip gloss is a perfect present to a woman who loves long lasting lipstick. If you wash this using water the color will still stay. So you need soap or make up removal to remove it well.

Rate: 10/10
Price:  $5-$7 in UK stores $12 in Amazon / Php 210.00/Php  504.00

    (Recommended for full and dark lips)

Matte lipstick is advisably use for full lips simply because glossy and shimmering lipstick can increase the size of your lips. Nichido Matte is perfect and very affordable. It lasts and really covers your lips as you wish. I can say it is naturally an HD color especially with dark colors.

(Recommended for dry lips)

This is a perfect lipstick for dry lips. It deeply moisturized your lips without noticing it as the glossy effect goes to 3 hours or after eating. Dark color is perfect again for full lips and it’s my favorite. A lightweight to put on lips and for me, it lasts 6-8 hours.  
Just Bitten Kissable Balm Revlon Review


Rate:8/10
Price:  $12 / Php 500

This is one of my favorite to use and very light to put on lips. It lasts after eating or drinking that is more recommended for a night out party. It also moisturized your lips and vibrant HD color is expected. 

 
Max Factor Elixir Lipstick


Rate:9/10
Price:  $12 / Php 500
Where to Buy: Max Factor Outlet/Amazon  

 
 (Recommended for Daily Use/Daylight Especially on Teenagers)

This is very light on lips and you wouldn’t notice that you put something on your lips. Recommended just for your daily use or if you’re out for outdoor activities just like going to gym or playing your favorite sports. This is to make you look not pale and just simply looks natural. But if you have very dry lips, you have to put gloss first before applying it because it will have not the same color on dry lips. The good thing about this is can also use on our chicks to get your looks in bloom. When using it, try to apply it twice and let it dry.

Just Bitten LipStain


 The color lasts and helps you to outline the color of your lips. But I only recommend dark colors for buying this lip stain. It has a separate balm for you to decide if you want it to look matt or with shines but be careful on it because it easily get busted, only the moisturizing balm. This lasts for long hours but it only stays to 2 months especially if you always use it.
