Revlon ColorStay Ultimate Liquid Lipstick in 040 Brilliant Bordeaux is a longwear satin liquid lip color designed to deliver full-coverage pigment that resists smudging and lasts up to 24 hours.

This lightweight liquid lipstick combines intense, single-coat color with a soft satin finish and transfer-resistant technology so you can eat, drink, and go about your day without frequent touch-ups. The formula is created for comfortable all-day wear and comes in a curated range of 12 shades, from everyday nudes to bold reds and deep berries like Brilliant Bordeaux.

How does this lipstick stay put all day?

The ColorStay Ultimate formula uses transfer-resistant pigments that bond to the lips for extended wear while maintaining a supple, satin surface. It’s formulated to feel lightweight rather than sticky, which helps the color remain intact through normal activities like eating and talking. The result is consistent color payoff with significantly fewer touch-ups compared to traditional creams.

• Transfer-resistant pigments for reduced smudging
• Full-coverage formula that requires only one coat
• Satin finish that avoids the tightness of matte lipsticks
• Lightweight texture designed for comfortable long wear

Will Brilliant Bordeaux suit different skin tones and occasions?

Brilliant Bordeaux is a deep, berry-tinged burgundy that reads rich and flattering on a wide range of complexions. It can be worn as a statement evening shade or as a sophisticated daytime color when paired with neutral eye makeup. The satin finish keeps the look modern and wearable across formal and casual settings.

• Deep berry hue that complements cool and warm undertones
• Versatile for daytime sophistication or evening drama
• Works well solo or layered with gloss for added shine
• Available among 12 shades for matching personal style

How do I apply and remove this liquid lipstick effectively?

Apply directly from the doe-foot applicator for precise, full-coverage results in a single pass. Start at the center of the lips and sweep outward; blotting between layers isn’t necessary unless you want extra intensity. For removal, use an oil-based makeup remover or micellar water formulated to dissolve longwear pigments without excessive rubbing.

• Use the applicator to outline and fill in the lips in one motion
• No topcoat required — one coat often delivers full coverage
• Remove with oil-based remover for gentle, efficient cleansing
• Exfoliate lightly beforehand for a smoother finish

What finish and feel can I expect after application?

The lipstick dries to a soft satin finish that balances subtle sheen and velvety texture — not glossy, not overly matte. It’s formulated to feel comfortable on the lips, minimizing drying without compromising the longwear performance. The satin surface also helps the shade appear richly pigmented and flattering in photos.

• Satin finish for a refined, non-greasy look
• Comfort-focused formula to avoid stiff, cakey feeling
• Maintains color intensity without high shine
• Photogenic color payoff with even coverage

Who is this for: Revlon ColorStay Ultimate Liquid Lipstick in 040 Brilliant Bordeaux is ideal for anyone who wants reliable longwear color with a polished satin finish — from busy professionals and frequent travelers to special-event attendees who need makeup that endures. It’s a good match for users who prefer one-step application, value comfortable wear, and want a bold, lasting lip without the fuss of constant reapplication.
