Reviewer verdict

Across 27 YouTube reviews, the Maybelline SuperStay Vinyl Ink Liquid Lipcolor earns a Summa score of 3.6/5, ranking #1 among Lips (Lipstick, Lip Gloss, Liner). Reviewers most often praise its color payoff, longevity, texture/finish, while the most common criticisms concern color payoff, other.

Reviewers overwhelmingly praise this lipstick for its exceptional longevity, with many confirming its 16-hour wear claim and transfer-proof, smudge-proof performance. Its unique formula provides a high-shine, glossy vinyl finish that looks like a gloss but sets for all-day wear, a rare combination. Users find it highly pigmented, delivering full, opaque color in one swipe for most shades. Despite its staying power, the formula feels surprisingly comfortable, lightweight, and non-drying on the lips. The wide and expanding shade range, including many versatile nudes flattering for various skin tones, and its affordable drugstore price point are also frequently celebrated as major benefits.

The most significant drawback is the formula's sticky and tacky feel, which many reviewers found uncomfortable and persistent even after setting. Application can be challenging; the liquidy consistency is prone to messiness, and many shades apply unevenly or patchily, requiring multiple layers and careful attention. Users also noted the inconvenience of having to shake the product vigorously before each use due to formula separation. Furthermore, the initial glossy finish tends to wear off or transfer throughout the day, and the product can be very difficult to remove without an oil-based cleanser.
