These Lip Stains Will Last Through Your Most Intense Makeout Session

This formula comes in over a dozen colors that range from peachy nudes to a classic true red. Its balm-like texture makes it easy to glide on, but each tube delivers the same pigmented color payoff as your favorite lipstick with a touch of shine. 

Not quite red and not quite oxblood, Revlon's Colourburst Balm Stain in Honey is the ideal in-between shade that looks like cherry-stained lips when you swipe it on. The crayon contains hydrating shea, mango, and coconut butters that keep lips from getting chapped. 

Although it's not exactly as permanent as real tattoo, getting inked is the inspiration behind Dior's new liquid stain. It adds opaque, natural-looking color to lips that won't transfer or fade throughout the day. 

While this orange tube may look just as loud as the person on their phone that's sitting next to you on the subway, it goes on subtle. The balm-tint hybrid has coats lips with a shiny hint of orange, while its lip-shaped core simultaneously keeps things smooth thanks to moisturizing apricot butter and jojoba oil. 

A single swipe of Bobbi Brown's Crushed Lip Color gives lips lived-in, not lacquered color. Enriched with vitamins C, E, and beeswax, the formula hugs lips without settling into cracks or getting flaky. While there's 20 shades in the lineup, we love Baby, a soft rosy pink. 

A coat of this nutrient-rich stick gives lips a just-bitten, post-makeout session look, or even better, the same shade they are after a glass or two of your favorite red wine. 

A sheer matte lipstick may seem like a contradiction, but that's truly the only way to describe this Glossier tube. It has a shine-free finish that mimics the look of a just-blotted lipstick. Cake is the *perfect* peachy-nude that adapts to your natural lip color, so it's a universally neutral shade for everyone.
