I was thinking about trying it but get tired of trying products and not liking them and having no idea what to do with them.
I'm 53 and have never been able to wear lipstick, it drives me crazy.
So I was thinking about the stain.
Is it dry? Drying? Does it wear off in the middle and not the edges? What's the color like?
Thanks

I tried a few colors a year or two ago. They were OK though they definitely didn't last as long as a more expensive one that I own from Smashbox. I have perpetually chapped lips, so they kind of emphasized that--but that's the case with all lipstains, not just CG's. Honestly I'd give them a try because they're pretty cheap, then if you like the stain idea, you might want to splurge on a longer-lasting one.

I just bought it, not bad, I use gloss and a lipliner with it, it does stay on, wish they had better colors, though.

All stains are usually drying and if you have that feathering problem with lipstick you are going to get it with a stain. If you can wear chapsticks, you should look into tinted balms. Yes it wears off just like all lipstick stuff that needs to be touched up. If the tinted balm feathers there are pencils you can outline your mouth with or try concealer outline set with powder and blended out.(then apply lip product)

I LOVE lipstick, but I HATE Cover Girl's lip stain, it's VERY VERY drying, but every lip stain I ever tried has been too drying.

I bought one and it's okay...the color is more pink than the orangish that the tube is, so I'm not too pleased with that. It is more drying that lipsticks, which is normal with all lip stains. I actually prefer the ones I used to buy at Garden Botanika years ago...
