MAYBELLINE Super Stay 24 2-Step Liquid Lipstick — Very Cranberry, Long-Wear Moisturizing Balm

This two-in-one tube combines a pigmented, micro-flex liquid color with a moisturizing balm to create a ruby-red finish called Very Cranberry that aims to stay put through hours of wear. The liquid layer sets to a long-lasting film, while the balm seals in shine and hydration. The system is designed for precise application, minimal transfer, and a bold, true-to-shade payoff.

How does the 2-step system work and how do I use it?

The formula separates color and care into two dedicated chambers. First you swipe on the concentrated liquid pigment and wait for it to dry; then you sweep the balm over the film to lock moisture and add comfortable shine. This routine yields a long-lasting result without heavy flaking.

• Step 1: Apply the pigmented liquid with the precision applicator and allow ~2 minutes to set.
• Step 2: Cover with the conditioning balm to seal color and add hydration.
• Use a tissue blot between steps if you want a more matte final look.

What kind of wear and finish should I expect from Very Cranberry?

Very Cranberry gives rich, ruby-red coverage that resists fading, smudging and transfer for extended periods. The micro-flex color film provides high pigment intensity while the balm restores sheen and a softer mouthfeel. Expect strong, lasting color that still looks fresh after many hours.

• High-pigment, true-to-tube ruby red payoff.
• Long-wear color film that minimizes feathering and transfer.
• Balm finish adds comfortable shine and reduces dryness.

Is this lipstick suitable for sensitive or dry lips?

The two-step design separates wear from comfort: the setting liquid creates the durable color, while the balm provides conditioning to help reduce tightness. If your lips are especially dry, exfoliate and apply a lightweight lip primer or extra balm before the color layer for best results.

• Includes a moisturizing balm to improve comfort during wear.
• Works best when lips are prepped—exfoliate or pre-condition if needed.
• Does not promise medical benefits; follow regular lip care routines.

How do I remove the Super Stay 24 liquid color effectively?

Because the color is formulated to resist transfer, removal takes a deliberate cleansing step. Use an oil-based makeup remover or cleansing balm to dissolve the long-wear film, followed by a gentle lip cleanser or your regular face wash. Finish with your favorite lip balm to replenish moisture.

• Apply oil-based remover and hold for a few seconds, then wipe away.
• Repeat if traces remain, then cleanse normally and rehydrate lips.
• Avoid harsh scrubbing to prevent irritation.

Who is this for? The MAYBELLINE Super Stay 24 2-Step Liquid Lipstick in Very Cranberry is aimed at anyone who wants bold, long-lasting red lips without constant touch-ups—ideal for busy days, photo-ready looks, or evening occasions. It suits wearers who prefer strong pigment with the option of added moisture from a built-in balm and who are comfortable using a two-step application for extended performance.
