Most longwear lipsticks trade comfort for staying power; this ink crayon delivers lasting, matte colour that still feels light and flexible. Maybelline Super Stay Ink Crayon is designed for busy days when you need your lip to stay put without constant checks or touch-ups.

A blend of volatile silicones and film-forming polymers helps anchor pigment to the lips, boosting wear and reducing transfer. Dimethicone and related silicones smooth over texture for an even glide, while synthetic mica and borosilicate particles contribute to a soft-focus, blurred effect. Antioxidant vitamin E (tocopherol) supports formula stability and helps protect the lip surface from dryness.

The texture goes on as a creamy crayon, then sets to a soft matte finish that feels flexible rather than chalky. Once set, it comfortably hugs the lips, resisting smudging and fading through daily movement. The result is a lived-in matte look that stays put without constant reapplication.

The precise tip makes it easy to define, shape and fill in one product, ideal for quick application. Glide directly onto lips, allowing a few moments for the formula to set before eating or drinking. For a softer effect, you can blend the edges before it fully dries.

High pigment concentration delivers opaque coverage in one stroke.Oil-in-matte technology balances bold colour with a cushioned feel.Soft-focus blurring agents minimise the look of lip lines.Lightweight esters keep the formula flexible for hours.

For extra definition and extended wear, pair with a complementary Maybelline lip liner beneath the crayon. Those who prefer extra comfort can tap a light layer of non-greasy balm on top once the colour has set.

A precise, twist-up crayon that delivers longwear matte colour with the comfort and control of a creamy pencil.

• Step 1. Start with clean, dry lips and, if needed, gently buff away any flaky skin.
• Step 2. Twist up a small amount of product to maintain control and preserve the tip.
• Step 3. Use the pointed tip to outline the natural lip contour, focusing on the cupid’s bow and corners.
• Step 4. Fill in the remainder of the lips using the flatter side of the crayon in short, light strokes.
• Step 5. Press lips together to even out the colour, then allow a minute for the formula to set.
• Step 6. For longer wear, avoid applying oily balm or gloss directly on top until the formula has fully dried down.

Pro Tips

• Use the built-in sharpener regularly to keep the tip precise for a more defined lip shape.
• For a diffused, blurred look, apply to the centre of the lips and gently tap outwards with a fingertip.
• To further minimise feathering, lightly trace around the outer lip line with a concealer before applying.
• Blot once with tissue after the first layer, then apply a second layer to intensify colour and wear.
