8 of the best new long-wearing, moisturising lipsticks

 There are eight new moisturising lipsticks on the market that won’t require you to touch up all day.


Long-wearing and moisturising lipsticks are hard to find, especially when it comes to matte formulas, but there are some new gems launching at the moment to solve the tricky issue of lipstick that stays comfortable while lasting all day….

 

Chanel Rouge Allure Ink Fusion, €36

Packed with oils, Chanel’s new take on matte lipstick, Chanel Rouge Allure Ink Fusion, €36, begins as a sheer stain that becomes one with the lips, but can be built up in layers to an indelible matte. It lasts for hours and comes in 12 perfect shades of nudes, pinks and reds, for the perfect winter wardrobe of lipsticks.

Bobbi Brown Luxe Shine Intense Lipstick, €32.50

Bobbi Brown’s new Luxe Shine Intense Lipsticks are one of the sleekest new lipsticks on the market, beautifully packaged in slick gold cases. Available in 13 delicious berries, nudes, raspberries and wines, they are packed with hyaluronic acid, vitamin E and emollients for a mega-watt shine that gives full coverage in one swipe that doesn’t budge all day. Foolproof lipstick for the daily lipstick wearer.

Giorgio Armani Lip Maestro Christmas Gold Mania Collection, €33

The gorgeous Lip Maestro collection from Giorgio Armani is available now in six limited-edition new shades of warm browns, cool beiges, and perfect reds and pinks with a new shimmering golden pearl touch.

Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture The Slim Sheer Matte, €35.50

The new Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture The Slim lipsticks are now available in a sheer matte, with buildable coverage that feels light on the lips and stays and feels comfortable all day. The square edges of the bullet allow for one-swipe coverage and make lining the lips a doddle.

Laura Mercier Rouge Essentiel Silky Creme Lipstick, €34

Infused with Mediterranean sea algae extract, the Laura Mercier Rouge Essentiel Silky Creme Lipstick, available in 30 vibrant shades, moisturises and smooths your lips before micronized coated pigments deliver a one-swipe pigment punch that lasts for up to six hours without bleeding, feathering, settling into lines or fading.
