If ever there was a makeup product for those of us looking to get our face to last all night long, it would have to be this setting spray by Urban Decay.

Bite Beauty Lip Pencil
If you want your lipstick to survive a night of chatting and sipping, then a lip pencil is your best bet. And if you use the Bite Beauty lip pencils, you are likely to see your lip color making it through midnight. (While lining the lip is important, we suggest filling in the whole lip with the pencil and then applying the lipstick over it, it has been known to work better than you might think.)

Benefit Stay Flawless Foundation Primer
In general, primer helps our makeup last longer and stay in place. But if you are looking for a much longer wear, then Benefit’s Stay Flawless Foundation Primer is the way to go, especially since they offer up to 15 hours of protection. Honestly, we tend to love Benefit’s products, so we definitely think this is a must-have when you are going for an all-night look.

Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick
One of our favorite liquid lipsticks comes from Stila, and it really does tend to stick around no matter how many times we take a sip of our drink. We can’t guarantee that it will last through some intense kissing, but we definitely recommend this product for a long night (minus the kiss).

NARS Dual-Instensity Blush. Image via Narscosmetics.com.
NARS Dual-Intensity Blush
Here’s the thing about this blush, it is not considered a long-lasting blush and yet it actually is. NARS knew what they were doing when they created this multi-dimensional blush that is able to stay put no matter what your day or night looks like. Whether applied wet or dry, this is a blush that stands the test of time and activity, although makeup remover is ultimately its downfall.

Rimmel Exaggerate Liquid Eye Liner
If you are looking for an eyeliner that lasts up to 16 hours, Rimmel has you covered. Liquid eyeliner can often be the biggest struggle, this is definitely one of our favorites. It helps that this one is highly affordable, smudge and flake proof, and highly pigmented.

Laura Mercier Loose Setting Powder
If you are looking to get 12 hours out of your makeup, Laura Mercier’s Loose Setting Powder is the perfect choice.

Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Waterproof Liner
When it comes to eyeliner, I prefer pencils like this one from Bobbi Brown. Not only does it go on smoothly, but it has a smudge-proof formula that helps it last up to 16 hours. You can blend and define with this product, for a look you’ll love, and really we think this may become your new favorite liner.

Urban Decay Sin Afterglow Highlighter Palette
Okay, so while it’s not quite the 12 or 16-hour lasting power of some of the other items on the list, this highlighter palette does give you 8 hours of beauty. When it comes to a late night out, this product does work, as long as this is applied before going out and not at the start of the day. Either way, we love this palette and the shades it offers.
Price: $39
When it comes to lasting through the night, these products certainly help to get the job done. Whether you use them in conjunction with some of your other makeup, or choose these as the way to get your look done, we think you’ll be able to last through midnight with ease (and look good doing it).
