  • My BFF in high school had enviable natural, berry-hued lips. Me? Not so much. I was definitely not blessed with a rosy lip color. My peachy palette is monochromatic -- including my lips -- so I’m an ideal candidate for lipsticks and stains. (Take this quiz to discover your ideal glam lip color.) It must be in my DNA, because my mom is the self-professed "lipstick queen" and my grandmother wore lipstick well into her late eighties. Our family mantra is: “Put on a lil’ lipstick and you’ll be fine” (no joke).

  • So I’m always on the quest for a magical lip gadget that is long lasting, but keeps my lips moist and shiny and tastes good too. Well, TotalBeauty.com readers have tested loads and loads of lipsticks and helped determine which ones made this list of best lipsticks. My interest is clearly piqued, is yours? Read on to -- hopefully -- find your new fave …

  • No. 10: Revlon Renewist LipColor, $9.99

  • One reader was "surprised by how much I liked it. My experiences with drugstore makeup brands have been pretty hit-or-miss, but this one was definitely a hit!" Another loved the "super moisturizing, lasting power and absolutely awesome color.” See what else they had to say.

  • No. 9: Chanel Rouge Allure Luminous Satin Lip Color, $30

  • Readers give praise that "this is definitely my 'go to' lipstick" and that "it goes on soft, but at the same time stays on." See what else makes it worth the price tag.

  • No. 8: Neutrogena MoistureShine Soothing LipSheers, $8.99

  • Readers say that it has a "subtle cooling sensation, which is great on hot days." See why the slim packaging is a bonus.

  • No. 7: Estee Lauder Pure Color Long Lasting Lipstick, $22

  • Readers say this long-lasting lipstick does what it claims: "I can apply it in the morning and it goes on smoothly and makes my chapped lips look great till noon." Read more about its texture.

  • No. 6: Clinique Almost Lipstick, $14

  • Readers say it is “so much better than lipstick" because it is "somewhere in between a lipstick and a gloss or sort of a lip stain." See which color choice is worth the hype.
