So we put 13 popular long-lasting lipsticks to the test to see just how well they live up to their claims. The rules: No touchups for the entire work day, and no lip liner allowed. (After all, if a lipstick promises it's long wearing, it should be able to do so solo.)
Each long-lasting lipstick was tested by at least two editors to account for differences in lip condition (the better moisturized one's lip, the better the lipstick will stay) and eating and drinking behaviors. We shot hourly selfies, and deducted points for lipsticks that were difficult to apply or uncomfortable to wear. Because, ultimately, who cares how long a lipstick lasts if it leaves lips dry as the Sahara?
Here, the great long-lasting lipstick test, and the lipsticks that will actually last all day.
