transfer-proof
Stays where applied
Transfer-proof describes cosmetics—especially lipstick—formulated not to rub off onto other surfaces.
A transfer-proof lipstick won't leave marks on coffee cups, shirt collars, or the person you kiss: I need something transfer-proof for my sister's wedding.
The term applies to any makeup designed to stay put rather than smear or migrate.
