What lip stain is best?

At once both modern and timeless, bringing to mind the intense purple sweetness of fresh summer berries and the impossibly saturated pout of a Rosetti model; a lip stain is the best way to impart a healthy tint to the lips (and cheeks) without ever having to worry about touch-ups.

The MAC Versicolour Varnish Cream Lip Stain delivers extremely long-wearing colour in a glossy formula that’s much more comfortable and nourishing than typical lip stains. Come for the glossy finish on application, stay for the long-lasting stain hours later. A shade like Stuck In Love (a nude rose) will flatter a majority of skin tones whilst lovers of more intense hues may find their match in No Interruptions (deep burgundy), Plexi Pink (bright fuchsia) or Optix Orange (deep coral). Once applied to the lips there is no reason not to tap a little extra onto the cheeks for a fresh and extremely long-wearing cream blush. This matching of lip and cheek colours is an easy way to ensure a tonal harmony throughout your makeup, making for a look that’s both polished and natural.

For a liquid lip colour that's the ultimate fusion of gloss and stain you can try the original Versicolour Stain. They're the ultimate fusion of gloss and stain in one fluid formula that melts onto lips for a full-on glassy shine that lasts and lasts and lasts. Infused with emollient oils, their creamy, lightweight texture stays bright, lustrous and so comfortable without ever cracking or peeling. Like an energy shot for your lips, they come in a range of 5 resilient hues that live long into the day (and night).
