The Inks Vinyl Cream High Shine Lip Stain

Perfect everyday nude! Very moisturizing with good lasting power

As someone who wants something long lasting but glossy, this was perfect. A little bit goes a long way and the shade was beautiful. Other than the price, it is a great product. I would definitely recommend if it’s in someone’s budget.

I have been loyal to this product for many years, although each time I purchase the colors and formulation are a little different. This is still my favorite lip product of all time. However, this time the formulation is a little thinner and drier which is not an improvement. I love the plum color, but I wish it was a bit darker / more opaque. FWIW, my favorite formula was the “rebel nudes” era.

Beautiful shade and great staying power but prove point is too expensive for how much product you get.

The color is pretty. The product, especially at this price point, is a complete waste. I don’t think YSL and I use the same definition of “stain” because there is zero staining of my lips with this product. It’s absurd that this is marketed as a lip stain instead of a lip gloss.

This particular lip stain didn't quite meet expectations, earning a three-star rating. The color payoff was decent, but the formula felt a little drying throughout the day. For a similar price point, other brands offer more comfortable and long-lasting options. It's worth exploring different formulas to find the perfect fit for your needs.

I didn’t want to live this because of the price. Unfortunately she really is THAT GOOD 😩 it goes on so smoothly and the feel on your lips throughout the day is hydrated and not sticky or thick. I will be buying every color

It is a nice pink color. I also have it in YSL Lip Butter, which I might add lasts as long or longer than this "stain". I had expected much longer wear. Doubt I would repurchase.

Always looking for a good long wear stain. I would t necessarily call this a stain, it’s velvety and luxurious with long wear that doesn’t dry or cake. Looks slightly glossy and has beautiful long wear.

What I Loved: • Blurring Effect: The formula has a beautiful blurring effect that makes your lips look smooth and soft. It’s like an IG filter but in real life. • Comfortable Wear: It feels velvety without drying out your lips, a rarity for matte products. • Lasting Power: Once it sets, it’s not going anywhere for hours. It’s not fully transfer-proof, but it fades evenly and leaves a nice stain behind. • Applicator: The pointed applicator makes it easy to get a precise line without needing a separate lip liner. I would write a list of pros but honestly right now there aren’t any! I’m obsessed.
