Most long-wear lipsticks force you to choose between staying power and comfort; this 2-step formula is designed to deliver both. L'Oréal Paris Infallible 24HR 2-Step Lipstick pairs a high-hold base coat with a moisturising balm to give durable colour that feels comfortable from morning to night.

The base coat uses film-forming silicones such as trimethylsiloxysilicate and isododecane to anchor pigment to the lips, supporting up to 24-hour wear. The balm top coat includes beeswax, tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E derivative), sodium hyaluronate and collagen-derived ingredients to help condition, maintain moisture, and soften the appearance of fine lines.

The first step applies as a lightweight liquid that sets to a transfer-resistant finish without feeling heavy. The second step is a silky balm that glides on easily, adding comfort, a subtle sheen, and a smoother look throughout the day. Together they create colour that resists crumbling, feathering, and flaking.

Apply the base coat to clean, dry lips and allow it to dry completely before adding the balm. Reapply the balm as needed for comfort and a freshly smoothed finish without disturbing the underlying colour. For longest wear, avoid applying oily balms or glosses over the base coat before it has fully set.

Film-forming polymer technology helps lock pigment in place for extended wear.Conditioning top coat with beeswax and emollients helps maintain a comfortable feel over time.Hyaluronic acid and collagen-derived ingredients support a smoother, more cushioned look on the lips.Dual-phase system separates long wear and care steps for better control over finish and comfort.

For precise edges and prolonged definition, pair with a complementary L'Oréal Paris lip liner applied before the base coat. Finish the rest of the look with Infallible complexion and eye products to create a cohesive, long-wear makeup wardrobe.

A 2-step, long-wear lip system that pairs locked-in colour with comforting care for lips that look polished all day.

• Step 1. Start with clean, dry lips, ensuring there is no balm, foundation, or oil on the surface.
• Step 2. Apply a thin, even layer of the base coat, carefully following the natural lip line.
• Step 3. Allow the base coat to dry completely for 1–2 minutes without pressing lips together.
• Step 4. Once dry, apply the moisturising balm top coat over the entire lip area.
• Step 5. Reapply the balm throughout the day whenever you want added comfort or a refreshed finish.
• Step 6. To remove, use an oil-based make-up remover, massaging gently until the colour lifts away.

Pro Tips

• For extra precision, define the lip contour with a lip liner before applying the base coat.
• Apply the base coat in thin layers rather than one thick coat to maximise comfort and wear.
• Avoid licking or pressing lips together while the base coat is drying to prevent patchiness.
• Focus the balm in the centre of the lips if you want to maintain maximum wear around the edges.
