Like Sasquatch, Santa Claus, and underwear on limo-exiting celebrities, lipstick after a big bowl of oil-drenched pasta exists only mythologically.
With lipstick, you can certainly start with as much as you want painted on your pout. But by the end of dinner, even the darkest tint gets licked clean off. And there's nothing like going to powder your nose before the dessert cart gets rolled around, only to discover there's nothing left but the faint rim liner.
Considering the universality of this issue, I can't believe no one told me sooner about Urban Decay's Lip Envy lip stain. Oils! Sauces! Cheese fondue! A five-course dinner with fish! Nothing - and I mean nothing - will remove this from your lips once it's colored on.
The hue on these stains is deep, too - richly saturated berries and bronzes that stay lit all night. I've been wearing Greedy for the last 12 hours, and it's still as bright and fresh as when I put it on. Amazing!
How many dates have I've sat through with hideous-looking lipstick remnants? Urban Decay, where have you been all my life?
The lips don't lie, ladies!

Where was this at my senior prom?!
I made that look like really hot pink mood lipstick, didn't I?
The color is actually a really deep fuchsia that looks awesome with blonde/brown highlighted hair (ahem...my new color!)
Do you not find it a bit sticky though? I think it has an odd feel to it. Maybe it's just because I'm used to the emollient quality of my lipstick (Sephora's lip gloss pencil in 04 bronze).
