I just got rimmel londen 16hr kiss proof lip gloss....its holding up pretty well so far.
It has a double wand u apply the colour first..let it 'dry' then apply a clear top coat which aparantly seals and locks it.
I was impressed wen the colour didnt rub  straight off onto the clear wand for starters! And you can re-apply the clear side for extra gloss but the  colour does hold well...iv eaten , had a cup of coffee and a smoke and its still holding up. Thumbs up from me. :-*

Ooh thanks very much! Will buy some tomorrow.
Does it dry your lips out though?

Atm I keep using NYC stain lip pen. It looks like a felt tip pen and it's amazing. Stays on literally throughout a handful of bookings hence 'stain' in the title and at a bargain price of 3.99. I use a pinky red colour and love it x

The rimmel one isnt drying... i still hav it on even though i need to top up the clear gloss coat my lips still arent feeling dry and th colour hasnt cracked or anything.
Have also tried the lip stain pens b4 they r good but too but  I like the look of lipstick..which i think i get more from this 16hr wand... only problem was thers only about 6 shades but i found 1 i liked.

I've recently bought two each of the Maybelline Color Sensationals and Bourjois Rouge Editions - in the latter, Brun Boheme is a lovely autumnal brick red. I find lipsticks a nightmare as I have ruddy cheeks (cool) and chestnutty hair (warm). They both wear well if blotted, re-applied, blotted (it always winds me up when women don't put lippy on 'properly'!)

Going back in this thread, I'm another Lily Lolo fan: I found Bare Escentuals made my face itch. I've used their foundation, powder, bronzer and eyeshadows - all good. The lipsticks are nice in texture, but don't last.

One thing I've found difficult to find is a brown waterproof mascara: Rimmel's is good though, as is a Miss Den one I bought on amazon. Despite using them and what claim to be waterproof eyeliners though, I always end up looking like a panda!  :o

I buy whatever is on sale  ;D

I don't wear make up much in my personal life and sometimes I only put on a bit of eyeshadow, mascara and lippy for bookings.

The only times I tend to use foundation etc is if my rocasea has flared up.

I've always gone with Channel, they do very pale and several levels of heaviness/coverage and they have a fantastic range of products, their mascara is beautiful.  I think they make a lot of their make-up with paler Europeans in mind who don't want a totally wild crazy all out colour look
More recently for quicker use I've been doing Bare Minerals.  I have used the clear liquid primer stuff (in a white bottle) underneath when I remember.   It makes SUCH an enormous difference to the staying power, makes the blemishes (I always have red bits) cover well - Bare Minerals do a special brush for blemish/concealment, the lady at the counter will show you.  I went for one of the starter kits.  When you find the colour you like get it on the QVC website, it's much cheaper.  I haven't had any reactions to bare minerals and oddly it doesn't make my dry skin drier.  So depending on the occasion one of those two.

For endurance, sweat action etc ;) staying power, it has got to be the Bare minerals used with the primer!!!

Just found estee lauder double wear! Im in love with it, totally sweat proof/ shower proof and flawless coverage, stops me needing to take it all off and on again between bookings.... doesnt aggrevate my skin either like most heavy cover foundations have problem skin)

Good one for lots of bookings or hard work bookings.... mascara that doesnt smudge i cant help with tho! i spend the second half of my long bookings looking like a panda. Guess pandas are cute at least.......

I have a full bottle of Est?e Lauder that I can't use as it dries my skin out but have found others that work well.

The trick with mascara is to wear waterproof and make sure your concealer and or foundation is not too close to it as the concealer especially breaks the mascara down.

I find I can't wear eyeliner on my lower lid as it smudges or just disappears.

Ooh I must try Bare Minerals sometime! I use foundation very rarely but my MUST have item is YSL Touche Eclat. It conceals, highlights and contours. I actually feel like crying when it runs out!!

I use maybelline 'better skin' foundation, which has good coverage without weighing my skin down. I don't think it's made my skin any better though but at least it hasn't made it worse. I have to look through the ingredients list because there's an irritant called methylisothiazolinone which is included in quite a few make up products. One to avoid, as you can become allergic to it over time, like I did when I got dry skin and eczema all over my face (I was miserable and had no idea what was causing it). I know that it's in maybelline bb creams.

[removed - please don't post these here]

Apart from that I use revlon lipsticks, there's one called rich girl red which isn't too heavy and doesn't dry out my lips as much as others, and of course maybelline great lash mascara is a must have.

For those with oily skin - Revlon Colorstay for Combination to Oily is my holy grail. Around ?12, excellent coverage, and decent shade range. I'm very reluctant to try anything else!
