REVLON ColorStay Suede Ink Lipstick User Manual

Instructions for Use

1. Prepare Your Lips: For best results, ensure your lips are clean and dry. If necessary, exfoliate gently to remove any dead skin cells.
2. Moisturize (Optional): If you have particularly dry lips, apply a thin layer of lip balm or moisturizer and allow it to absorb before continuing.
3. Apply the Lipstick: Open the cap of your REVLON Lipstick and twist the base to reveal the angled bullet. Use the precise angle to line the edges of your lips, then fill in the remaining area with the flat side of the bullet for even coverage.
4. Let It Set: After application, give the lipstick a moment to set for a long-lasting, smudge-proof finish.
5. Maintenance: For all-day wear, avoid eating oily foods and press your lips together occasionally to refresh the color.
6. Removal: At the end of the day, use an oil-based makeup remover or micellar water to gently remove the lipstick.

Troubleshooting Tips

• If the lipstick feels too dry on your lips, ensure you are using a moisturizer beforehand. However, remember that adding too much balm may affect the long-wear properties.
• In case of difficulty applying the lipstick smoothly, try warming the bullet slightly on the back of your hand before application.
• If the lipstick is not lasting as long as expected, avoid touching your lips frequently and minimize eating greasy foods.
• For issues with the lipstick setting into fine lines, apply a lip primer or a thin layer of foundation on your lips before applying the lipstick.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How long does the lipstick last?

The REVLON ColorStay Suede Ink Lipstick is designed to last up to 8 hours without transferring.

Is the lipstick moisturizing?

While the lipstick is infused with Vitamin E to nourish the lips, it has a matte finish and may not feel as moisturizing as creamier lipsticks. It's recommended to use a lip balm beforehand if you have dry lips.

Can I apply gloss over this lipstick?

Yes, you can apply gloss over it, but be aware that this may reduce the long-wearing and smudge-proof properties of the matte lipstick.

Is this lipstick suitable for all skin types?

Yes, the REVLON ColorStay Suede Ink Lipstick is designed for all skin types.

How can I choose the right shade for my skin tone?

Consider your skin's undertone when choosing a lipstick shade. Cooler shades tend to suit skin with pink or blue undertones, while warmer shades complement yellow or olive undertones. Try swatching the lipstick on your wrist to see how it complements your skin before applying it to your lips.

How do I remove the lipstick?

Use an oil-based makeup remover or micellar water to gently wipe away the lipstick. If it's particularly stubborn, hold a soaked cotton pad against your lips for a few seconds before wiping.

What if the lipstick shade doesn't match my expectations?

Colors may vary depending on individual screen settings and lighting conditions. If the shade isn't what you expected, consider using it as a base and layering another lipstick on top to adjust the color.

Is this lipstick waterproof?

Yes, the REVLON ColorStay Suede Ink Lipstick is waterproof and should not smudge or transfer when exposed to water.
