With the ease of application of a gloss, the pigment of a lipstick and the staying power of a stain, liquid lipsticks bring together everything you could want from a lip product. Enriched with oils and waxes for long-lasting comfort and available in shades ranging from the perfect nude to the deepest plum, liquid lipsticks are applied with a wand before drying to a velvety matt finish which stays put for hours on end.
