Product: Max Factor Lipfinity

Description: Max Factor Lipfinity is the original 2-step long lasting lipstick that won't come off, won't leave a mark on your glass, isn't affected by eating and won't smudge when you smooch for up to 10 hours! Lipfinity is the first lip product to use PermaTone , a breakthrough ingredient complex that delivers up to 10 hours of long wearing colour combined with moisturizing benefits. PermaTone works by gently attaching itself to the skin in a flexible mesh, allowing the colour to move with your lips and the skin and to breathe throughout the day - so your lip colour will still look beautiful, even after 10 hours! Available in 35 glamorous shades, Max Factor Lipfinity is Passion Proof (the original kiss-proof lip colour), pizza proof (won't come off with oily foods) and party proof (no transfer on the edge of your glass).

Its two step application is simple:
1. Paint Lipfinity liquid colour base on clean lips and wait a minute for it to dry.
2. Polish with Lipfinity "Moisturising Top Coat" - you'll never have to apply the colour base again but you can apply the topcoat as often as you wish .

When you are desperately in need of a "nothing must budge my lipstick" this is it! I was impressed with the lasting power of the colour. Of course the top coat had to be reapplied throughout the day but the actual colour of the lipstick stayed on my lips through the whole day.

This is great for those ladies whose lipstick tends to disappear or for special occasions where you just want to be sure your lipstick has stayed put. A word of warning; you do need the remover to get it off you lips at the end of the day (Remover $14.95).

Not even my waterproof eye makeup remover was good enough. I would not recommend this lipstick for ladies who have dry or very dry lips as the colour can be a bit drying, however if this is not a concern for you this is a great product to try. The colours in the range are excellent and very extensive.

Not a bad lipstick. It stayed on my lips quite a long time. The top coat gives a nice glossy shine. It felt good on my lips -not sticky at all. The great things about this lipstick is, it does not come off like other lipsticks do. However this can be a bad thing too, as it is hard to get off at the end of the day. Good price for a lipstick. I would buy this product again.

I found the application a little tricky at first, but once I got the hang of it I was really pleased with the results. I found I could get a lovely sheer coverage for work or a great night look as well. I really only needed to touch up at work due to all the talking at rushed lunches. I would definitely keep using this product as it is great value for money, you certainly don't need much of the product to go a long way.


Excellent staying power. This Lipstick is really easy to apply. It felt great on the lips, not heavy at all. The top coat did need to be reapplied during the day, but the paint stayed put for ages. I loved using this and I will definitely buy it again.

I have tried the Lipfinity lipstick a number of times in the past and always with the same result. The colour application is VERY drying and even after the gloss application, the lips feel very taut. When I have used the product over two days my lips have actually peeled. The colour wears off on the inside of my lips when eating and drinking and looks extremely unflattering. I didn't like using this product at all. I would not buy this product for myself again.


Personally I found this product a little too messy to apply as it had too much colour on the applicator. It dries to a matt finish and needs several applications of the Top Coat to feel comfortable. The colour only lasted a few hours on my lips before becoming patchy. Overall I wasn't happy using this long wearing lipstick.
