FAQs

How long does Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink in 'Ruler' last?

This lipstick is designed to last for up to 16 hours. Its formula is long-wearing and transfer-proof, providing exceptional durability throughout the day.

Is 'Ruler' transfer-proof?

Yes, once the lipstick has fully dried and set (typically within 1-2 minutes), it becomes completely transfer-proof, resisting smudges and transfer onto other surfaces.

How do I apply SuperStay Matte Ink for the best results?

For best results, apply to clean, dry lips. Use the pointed tip of the arrow applicator to define your lip lines, then use the flat side to fill in your lips with a thin, even coat. Allow it to dry completely without pressing your lips together.

How do I remove this long-lasting lipstick?

Due to its long-wear formula, an oil-based makeup remover or micellar water designed for waterproof makeup is recommended. Apply the remover to a cotton pad, gently press it onto your lips for a few seconds, then wipe away.

Does Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink dry out lips?

The formula is designed to be non-drying, ensuring comfortable wear for extended periods. However, preparing your lips by gently exfoliating and moisturizing prior to application can further enhance comfort, especially if your lips are prone to dryness.

Can I layer a lip gloss or balm over it?

It is generally not recommended to layer other lip products like gloss or balm over SuperStay Matte Ink, as this can break down the long-wear formula and compromise its transfer-proof and long-lasting properties.

What kind of red is the 'Ruler' shade?

'Ruler' is a bold, intense red shade. It's a striking color that offers a strong statement, suitable for various occasions and complementing a wide range of skin tones.

Troubleshooting

Lipstick appears streaky or uneven.

Ensure lips are clean and dry before application. Apply a thin, even layer. Avoid applying too much product at once. Use the precision of the arrow applicator to smooth out lines.

Lipstick feels sticky after application.

You might have applied too thick a layer. Ensure you are applying a thin, even coat. Allow adequate time (1-2 minutes) for the product to fully dry and set without pressing lips together.

Lipstick is difficult to remove.

Use an oil-based makeup remover or micellar water formulated for waterproof makeup. Apply to a cotton pad, press onto lips for a few seconds, then gently wipe away. Avoid scrubbing.

Lips feel dry or uncomfortable after wearing.

While non-drying, ensuring lips are well-hydrated *before* application helps. Gently exfoliate lips regularly and apply a light, non-greasy lip balm overnight or a few minutes before applying the lipstick, blotting off any excess.

Color wears off unevenly.

This can happen if lips are not clean and dry prior to application, or if oil-based products were on the lips. Ensure a clean base and allow the product to fully set without disturbance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional Longevity: Stays on for extended periods without fading.
  • No Transfer: Provides peace of mind that color won't smudge or transfer.
  • Comfortable Matte Finish: Achieves a true matte look without the typical dryness associated with many matte liquid lipsticks.
  • Precise Application: The unique applicator aids in clean and defined lines.
  • High Pigmentation: Delivers intense color payoff in a single swipe.

Cons

  • Requires Careful Removal: Due to its long-lasting nature, an oil-based remover is necessary for effective cleanup.
  • Precision Needed for Application: The quick-drying, transfer-proof formula means mistakes are harder to correct once applied.
  • May Highlight Lip Texture: As with many matte lipsticks, if lips are very dry or flaky, it may emphasize texture.
  • Limited Reapplication Window: Best applied once; layering too much can sometimes affect comfort or finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Prepare Your Lips: For the smoothest application and best longevity, ensure your lips are clean and dry. Gently exfoliate if needed to remove any dry skin. If you typically use a lip balm, apply a very thin layer and blot off any excess before applying the lipstick. This creates a smooth canvas without compromising the matte finish.
  2. Shake the Tube: Briefly shake the tube before opening to ensure the formula is well-mixed.

Compatibility

  • Skin Tones: The 'Ruler' shade, a bold red, is versatile and complements a wide range of skin tones. Its rich pigment makes it a striking color on many complexions.
  • Lip Liners: While not strictly necessary due to the precise applicator, you can use a matching red lip liner to further define your lip shape before applying the SuperStay Matte Ink for an even sharper look.
  • Other Lip Products: It is generally not recommended to layer other lip products (like gloss or balm) over SuperStay Matte Ink, as this can break down the long-wear formula and compromise its transfer-proof properties.

Care

  • Storage: Store your Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink Lipstick at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or extreme heat, which can alter the formula's consistency.
  • Cap Tightly: Always ensure the cap is securely fastened after each use to prevent the product from drying out and to maintain its efficacy.
  • Cleaning: Avoid cleaning the applicator with water or harsh chemicals. If necessary, gently wipe the outside of the tube with a clean, dry cloth.
  • Removal: Due to its long-lasting nature, this lipstick requires an oil-based makeup remover for effective and gentle removal. Apply the remover to a cotton pad, hold it over your lips for a few seconds to let it break down the product, then gently wipe away. Repeat if necessary.
