Revlon's ColorStay Lip Color was one of the first long-wearing lipsticks on the market, with a slogan promising it wouldn't "Kiss Off." I really loved the original ColorStay (at left). Not only did it really last forever, but it also felt smooth and soft on my lips. Over the years, though, Revlon has been phasing out the line in favor of ColorStay Overtime Sheer Lipcolor. To me, this stuff is just too complicated—it requires a base layer of color plus a glossy "topcoat"—and feels weird on my lips.

Now, I'm delighted to announce that Revlon is returning to its roots with a new version, called ColorStay Soft & Smooth Lipcolor. The more traditional lipstick goes on much more smoothly than the older version and looks moist without being too glossy. You can try it for yourself for $9.49 here.
