See how different lipsticks fared in the test!
We tested numerous lipsticks and the best ones are presented below.
Estée Lauder, Pure Color Illuminating Shine Sheer Shine Lipstick, 29.60 e, Look Fantastic.
User experience: WOW! This lipstick is hands down the best lipstick I have ever tried. At first, I was surprised by the lipstick’s usual narrower shape, but it was just fine. With that, the lipstick was easy and effortless to apply, there were no streaks.
The end result was beautiful and slightly shiny. The color was adequate, but the product was still very moisturizing and nourishing. This is no wonder, as the product contains a moisturizing blend of hyaluronic acid, ceramides and triglycerides. The lipstick lasted well on the lips when eating and sipping wine.

Joe Blasco, matte lipstick, 28.50 e, Joe Blasco.
User experience: Joe Blasco’s matte lipstick can be called luxurious, beautiful and long-lasting. The lipstick is richly pigmented, so there is enough color right from the first swipes.
You can rely on the product’s durability for a longer time, but you still need to add it to your lips from time to time after the first use.

Lancôme L’Absolu Rouge Ultra Matte Lipstick, shade: 196 French Touch. 38 Kicks.
User experience: The luxurious matte lipstick from the French brand Lancôme does not disappoint. The deep red, dramatic shade stayed on the lips well. It took drinking well, but the tester added lipstick after meals to keep the intense color on the lips.
As with highly pigmented blushes: I recommend starting to add blush by lining the lips. The formula was pleasant and did not dry out the lips, which can often be a problem with matte lipsticks.
Special note: The beautiful, clickable lipstick sleeve is convenient, because this way the cap stayed in place at the bottom of the bag for all-day trips.
School grade: 9
Maybelline Super Stay Vinyl Ink Longwear Liquid Lipcolor, shade: Cheeky. 12.90 e, Sokos.
User experience: Maybelline’s liquid novelty blush was a positive surprise. The vinyl-like shiny product is promised to last up to 16 hours on the lips: and it was long-lasting, even though the tester added the product throughout the day and evening. With the shiny, creamy product, you got plump lips that were noticed.
There was enough pigment, even if it was a lighter shade. Lips felt moisturized and soft, but not too sticky like lip glosses.
Special note: The ample novelty red has an excellent price-quality ratio.
School grade: 9
Essence, Hydra Matte, 2.50 e, Cocopanda.
User experience: The product lives up to its promise. The end result is a matte shade, without drying or cracking. The shade is super beautiful and the lipstick is pleasant to apply. The lipstick has a very strong watermelon scent. The packaging’s pink appearance and scent make the lipstick ediblely cute. Fortunately, the scent does not remain strong on the lips.
Red has to be added throughout the day, but it doesn’t pack on top of the previous layer or create a messy end result. The tester had the shade Peach it!
School grade: 9
Nature Republic, Byflower Triple Mousse Tint, 16.90 e, Bearel.
User experience: Byflower Triple Mousse Tint gives the lips a wonderful shade. The composition is light and mousse-like, which feels pleasant on the lips. Lighter than usual composition.
The product gives the lips a deep and matte look easily. By layering the lipstick, you can create a gentle or intense result on the lips. A moisturizing and lovely lipstick! I like it. The lipstick lasts a long time on the lips, although you have to add a little more, for example, after eating.
School grade: 8.5
Sothys, Rouge intense Sothys, 42 e, Sothys online store.
User experience: The composition of the Rouge intense Sothys lipsticks is absolutely delightful. It is soft and almost melts on the lips, moisturizing them. The lipstick quickly creates an intense and seductive shade on the lips.
This lipstick lasts well into the wee hours of the night, even if you exchange several kisses during that time. Of course, in order to maintain the intense shade, it should be added to the lips from time to time.
School grade: 8.5
La Roche-Posay, Toleriane lipstick, 19.20 e, Pharmacy Plus.
User experience: La Roche-Posay’s Toleriane lipstick is an extremely moisturizing variety. There is no need for lip balm with this product. The shade of the lipstick is beautiful and soft. Of course, the more lipstick you add to your lips, the more color you get.
Due to its moisturizing properties, the lipstick is not incredibly long-lasting, but I would like to add this beauty to my lips a little more often.
School grade: 8
Madara, Matte Cream lipstick, 28.90 e, Madara Cosmetics.
User experience: Madara’s lovely vegan lipstick leaves a sophisticated velvety look on your lips. They seem immediately kissable. The product spreads easily on the lips, leaving behind a pleasant feeling and a beautiful color.
The product contains, among other things, blueberry seed oil and shea butter, which promise to nourish and protect the lips. It also feels like that on the lips.
School grade: 8
Yves Rocher, Rouge Elixir Satin, 17.90 e, Yves Rocher.
User experience: Yves Rocher’s lipstick has a lot of pigment. Color and duration are enough with every swipe. This lipstick contains camellia oil that promises to care for the lips. The product fulfills this promise, as it keeps the lips soft and moisturized for a longer time.
The lipstick lasts a really long time on the lips. You could wear it for a long time even when washing your make-up, so you don’t have to worry about it disappearing from your lips right away.
School grade: 8
Catrice, Cosmetics Power Full 5 Lip Care, 4 e, Cocopanda.
User experience: The product surprised me with the first experience, because it looks like a regular lipstick, but is actually a tinted lip cream. However, the product could be described as a lipstick that moisturizes the lips at the same time. Different superfoods, such as cucumber and goji berries are the ingredients of the lipstick. The shade is really pretty, but you have to add a few layers of the product if you want a more visible end result. The product does not dry out and adding more during the day is not a problem because the composition is so pleasant.
The product can be added even without a mirror thanks to its composition. It does not leave strong lines on the lips. You cannot get a very intense result with the product. Odorless. The tester used the shade Addicting Cassis.
