Maybelline Superstay Ink Crayon Reviews

I was already a convert of the Superstay Ink Crayons when I received this trial, so it was with pleasure that I was accepted. This crayon is called 'Make it happen' and is a deep plum red. It's somewhat bright for my tastes and relevant events, but it's a good warm shade of red. I've called it a plum red because there is an undertone of deep berry or magenta, rather than ruby red or orange red. It's pretty much the same colour as the tube. I have tried a number of red lipsticks in this type of shade, trying to find one that doesn't bleed. This one did not bleed and stays put quite well but needs to be touched up after warm food. The sharp end helps to get a crisp line, which is very important on a high maintenance shade of red like this one. The sharpener on the end of the tube will come in handy for that reason. I have another colour where the shade is more of a nude shade, so I probably won't need the sharpener on that one. It's more of a bonus than essential for some shades.

Stickability? It's not as long lasting as the Matte Lip Ink, which is the older cousin product, but it makes up for it in creaminess, range of colours, and the easy application. I will be phasing out my matte lip inks and getting these instead. They are infinitely more useable, and great for lips that aren't so plump anymore, as the thin tube lets you get into all the cracks and crevices!

How to get the stuff off - I used a waterproof makeup remover as that is all I had in the house at the time, but I suspect most removers will be successful. There was a dark pink stain on my lips when I took it off, but it faded quickly.

I have not found this product to dry out my lips so far - I haven't had time to try this shade out over a full day duration, but my other shade can be worn multiple days in row with no ill effect to my skin.

All in all I recommend these and will be buying more.

These Maybelline Superstay Ink Crayons are a favourite of mine - I have 4 colours in total. They're nice and compact so slide easily into the handbag.

Application is so easy - use the point of the crayon to line and then simply fill lips with the crayon colour. It glides on so easily, and doesn't bleed. It has reasonable staying powder - I apply a couple of times a day out of habit but generally lasts the morning before re-applying. I love the little sharpener that is screwed into the other end - it's quick and easy to sharpen the crayon to a point if you like to line the lips carefully before applying lippy. I tend to let mine go rounded/blunt to make it easy to apply lippy on the go. Application is so easy that I even managed to master the bright red lippy look without over-doing it! I love them.

Removal - it needs a makeup remover/cleanser of some sort to completely remove it. I tend to find micellar water a good remover for this lip crayon.

I love these crayons. Have become a bit of a collector of them, and will continue using them now they're a favourite

I love this lip crayon! Lip crayons are typically my favourite type of lip product, they’re so easy to apply and feel nicer on my lips as they’re moisturising but also doesn’t move around and get everywhere during the day compared to lipsticks. I also like that with lip crayons you can decide how much pigment you want on your lips through the way you apply by either dabbing it on and smoothing it out or applying it straight on. I also love that you can use lip balm with this as well as I get really dry lips and this almost turns into a tint. I will say that you need to have some what smooth lips otherwise the lip colour will show up kinda patchy. It doesn’t have any scent which is nice and the packaging is slim so it’s so easy to chuck in a bag and take with you in the go if you need to reapply

I really liked this lip crayon it is super creamy, feels amazing on and i love the fact the sharpener is built in. It goes the distance during the day and the colour stays well, if u want to shine things up just add a little gloss over top. I would highly reccomend giving this product a go. Only thing I did notice that might be a slight negative is the dark colours stain the lips a bit even after using a makeup remover.

Thank you BR for giving me the chance to review this product.

I got the shade LAUGH LOUDER which is a Redy Orange shade. It is quite an intense colour, i wouldn't normally reach for this but gave it ago when going out one night and surprising liked it! I did a simple eye look to go with this lipstick so my lips popped. I was impressed with how well it stained on lips as i was drinking out of a can and when i came home i still needed makeup remover to remove it from my lips. It is easy to apply and really does go on like a " crayon " It's like using a lip liner to apply almost, stays well like a lip liner as well. I over drawn my lips and it still looked great! I also love the simple packaging. Id defiantly buy a nude shade in this product!

This was a surpise gem for me. I have the crayon in the shade 'laugh louder' Its a corally red shade which isn't something I'd normally use. However its BEAUTIFUL.

Like all of the maybelline trial products I cant get over just how long the application lasts. It looked flawless all day and made my lips look delicious.

Its a matte shade which really complimented the use of the burgandy pallette- the partys all in the shadows you see.

Another feature I loved was the actuall smell of the product- almost smells like vanilla? I found it to be moisturising on my lips as well. If the product smelt like 'crayons' like some lip pencils do that would have put me off but this smely so yummy I could eat it.

Its easy to apply, I didnt feel like I NEEDED a lip liner but if you wanted a more defined lip thats also an option.

Packagings strong and simple, with a twist top to ensure you get the most out of the product and for hygeine purposes.

I've worn this every day since reveiving it. 5 lip kisses from me .Mwah mwah....MWAH!!

I loved this product. I tested its staying power by leaving it on overnight. When I woke in the morning my lips still looked glam. It doesn’t feel cakey or dry like other matte lip products I have used. This will definitely be staying in my make up bag.

I have already gone out and bought this in another shade now!

This has become one of my fav lipsticks! The shade I received wasn't a shade I would normally go for, but after using it I went out and purchased one that was as Maybelline really have created a great product here!

It stayed on for longer than the 8hours I found and didn't need touch ups. It is easy to apply and even has a built in sharpener which for me is fantastic. Its one of those products I can quickly do in the morning, go about my day and know that it still looks good when I get home!

I actually found the ink crayon easier and quicker to use than normal lippy which is fab! It also doesnt seem to let my lips dry out either.

I got this in a coral orangey/red colour. Not one I'd normally choose for myself but it seems the Christmas fates have intervened and told me I needed a change and it looks fabulous. You can swizzle it up and it has a small sharpener on the outside. It has a dual purpose a lip liner and then you can fill in your lips. A crayon is a good name for it and it even smells like a crayon sort of a play dough sort of smell. It stayed on well and although there was transfer it was at an acceptable level.

I liked it and i'll be checking out the other colours in the range.
