My write-up on Maybelline Superstay Matte lip Ink Review

The formula is very comfortable, it will last me all day without being overly drying. It will last me through water and food, and whenever I want to remove it, I’ll require any waterproof makeup remover. I’m right now using the Garnier micellar water, so it will stand up. 

The color range is gorgeous, so you will be able to find it but my favorites are Seductress’ which is a light pink nude, Pioneer is red with pinkish undertones, Seeker (brown with reddish undertones, Amazonian (nude with brownish undertones), and Transformer (wine-colored). and ‘Loyalist’ which is a tender neutral nude.

I feel like so many light nudes will be super white-based that even if you have a light skin tone, they’re not super flattering, but this one works really well. By the way, they have a vanilla cake smell.

The application method has my favorite type of applicator that is sharp and has a little bit of space in the center.  They’re delicate and simple to apply. They require a few moments to dry totally, yet by then they are transfer-proof. 

There are many shades with new colors and each shade is mind-blowing because they’re so pigmented and super long-lasting.

Maybelline new york superstay matte ink used to last a long time on my lips and the best part about this formula is that this stint is a glossy matte finish. It doesn’t look cracky or flaky like other liquid lipsticks. It claims to be 16-hour long wear and also smudge-proof and transfer-proof.

If you have extremely dry lips and you still want to use a liquid lipstick that lasts you a long time on your lips are highly recommend putting it like a lip balm.

It is very long-lasting but the formula is quite sticky and feels heavier on the lips. I noticed that it gets oxidized a little after application because I found a little change in the shade after some time.

Maybelline superstay matte ink lipstick is quite pleasant and pigmented, and it lasts a long time. It gives a moisturizing and hydrating effect on my lips. You can cover your lips in a single swipe without drying feeling.

It doesn’t get streaky and gummy on the lips. The ink lipstick not only gives a velvety finish but also gives a smooth application.

The brush shape applicator makes it easy and simple to apply. This is, without a doubt, the greatest lipstick I’ve ever used.

Packaging

Maybelline new york superstay matte ink liquid lipstick comes in long plastic square tubes with a cap and solid-colored body representing the shade of the lipstick inside and making it simple to distinguish the shade color. The shade name is present on the lower part of the tube, making it simple to discover specific shades.

It has a beautiful, big, and leaf-shaped doe-foot applicator for easy application that works perfectly, particularly, around the corners and outlines of the lips. So, the sponge has a sharp tip that characterizes the lip well and gives an easy look with no effort.

The size of the tube is normal with a decent amount of product at the cost paid and goes on for around 3-4 months if we use it on daily basis. Overall, the packaging seems a bit heavy and clunky but the applicator is very accurate and comfortable to use. 

Texture

This ink lipstick has a medium-thick consistency that glides and covers the lips easily without any tugging and bleeding. It doesn’t seem bumpy, but the thick texture makes it feel a bit creamy and dense on my lips. Even when the lipstick has dried completely, it still feels a touch sticky.

Formula

Lipstick has a tacky and rubbery finish that makes it not quite the same as most other long-wearing matte lipsticks. It does not have the dry finish of matte formula and has the subtlest trace of a sheen that makes it appear more ink-like. 

The most important thing is that does not rub or press your lips together until they dried totally because they stick and create patchiness together like a glue finish. These lipsticks aren’t for people who prefer sheer, lightweight colors.

Due to the thick consistency, you may feel heavy but after one hour no stickiness there. You might not require lip liner because this product is smudge-proof, so it doesn’t come out until you remove it.

Use bi-phase makeup removers like cleaning oils and water-based makeup removers to remove this Maybelline lip color from the lips.

Two to three layers can be applied without the worry of cracking or crumbling. However, after applying the one layer on the lips, allow it to dry for a proper matte finish. It takes about one minute to dry. Then you can apply more layers but allow every layer of color to dry completely before applying the next.

The formula is very pigmented and sort of creamy. They have a sort of sweet vanilla smell. The formulation of Maybelline ink is it is 100% smudge-proof and waterproof, as they claim.

Yes, it is slightly uncomfortable at first, but overall it is amazing lipstick. Because of its thick consistency, it peels from the inner lip line. I’ve found that a single normal layer is more effective than multiple ones.

Staying power

The stability is impressive. It effectively remains for 8-10 hours without bleeding or smudging of the shading. It looks wonderful for the duration of the day and never looks blurred. 

Because the pigment rubs off layer by layer, it stays on even after an oily and heavy dinner, beverages, and kisses, making it impossible to remove it all at once. That is the thing that works on its longevity.

It somewhat chips from the inward lip line and once in a while likewise from the middle before the day’s over. It relies upon the circumstance. Else, it endures long for me. However, reapplication is certifiably not a simple way with this lipstick.
