Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensuring your Revlon ColorStay Suede Ink Lipstick performs optimally involves proper setup, understanding its compatibility, and consistent care.
Setup for First Use:
- No special setup is required. The lipstick is ready for direct application.
- Ensure your lips are clean, dry, and optionally moisturized before applying for the best results.
Compatibility:
- Lip Liners: Highly compatible with various lip liners. Using a red or clear lip liner is recommended to define edges and prevent feathering, enhancing the lipstick's performance.
- Lip Balms/Primers: Can be worn over a very thin layer of lip balm or a dedicated lip primer. Ensure any base product is absorbed or blotted to maintain the matte finish and longevity of the Suede Ink Lipstick.
- Lip Glosses: While designed for a matte finish, a clear gloss can be applied over it for a different look, though this may compromise its long-wear and 'naked-lip' properties.
Care and Maintenance:
- Storage: Store the lipstick in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain its texture and integrity. Avoid leaving it in hot cars or near heaters.
- Cleanliness: Keep the lipstick bullet clean. If it picks up lint or debris, gently wipe it with a clean tissue. Avoid getting water or other liquids directly into the product.
- Cap Securely: Always replace the cap tightly after each use to prevent the product from drying out and to protect it from contamination.
- Avoid Excessive Twisting: Only twist up the amount of product you need to prevent breakage.
