Lipstick/stain

[Cerydwen]

I'm in a show in a few weeks' time and need to find a lip product that will (a), show up under bright stage lights and (b) stay on me and not transfer to my leading man during snogging scenes (he's volunteered to practise lots, so we can test the product out

). Ideally I'd like a vivid pink, somewhere between a red like So Scarlet and a bright fuchsia like Show Orchid, but a bit softer (if that makes any sense - I can see the colour in my head, but I'm a bit rubbish at describing it).

I was hoping that MAC's new lipcremes would do the job, but there's not a colour that's 'right' - I've also heard that, while the colour stays on, it is not non-transferring, and I don't want the Lord Chancellor ending up wearing more lipstick than me!

Any advice would be very welcome

Benetint pocket pal (Benetint on one half, clear gloss on the other) is pretty good. Colour wise I'd say its more pinky red, on me anyway, but it does stay put. Stilas Cherry Crush lipstain is very pretty and is a deeper red and is especially long lasting!

Good luck for your show

Thanks Mercurial - I'll take a look at those
