Stainiac by theBalm is a long-lasting  lip and cheek stain. This water-based stain comes in a tube with an easy to use wand applicator. Staniac is a gel formula that has a longer drying time than other stains, allowing you more time to blend the product without any streaking, and dries weightless on the skin. This multi-purpose product is just so easy and perfect for the makeup minimaliast, which I think we all are or aspire to be in the hot weater. What I loved about this product is that it is not drying in the least to lips. I loved the results and took it along with me poolside, while it lasted through my swims. I will be toting this product along with me this summer among my other summer essentials.

Stainiac comes in three colors:

Beauty Queen – a sheer berry pink

Prom Queen – a sheer rosy pink

Homecoming Queen – a sheer soft peach

I am wearing theBalm Staniac in Beauty Queen on lips and cheeks.

You can get the Staniac at Beauty.com for $17
