Tabu Long-Lasting Lipstick

Tabu, the Original Smear-Proof Lipstick, Stays Where You Put It

Suggested by Lois Reid, Cinti, OR

Tabu, the long-lasting lipstick first introduced in the 1950s to an overwhelming response, remained a favorite of women everywhere until it was discontinued in 1998. We found this long-lasting lipstick again for you, and Tabu feels, smells, and looks just like you remember. Bermuda Red is bright crimson in honor of the island’s vivid pink sand. Granada is a bright orange-red, reminiscent of a sunset. Acapulco is a rosy pink recalling wild roses that grow along the ocean shore. Bar Harbor is a dusty mauve. 0.14 oz. tube.

  • Tabu's higher wax content prevents smearing and creeping
  • Long-lasting lipstick color
  • Tabu lipstick in four best-selling colors

Tabu Long-Lasting Lipstick 4 5 6 6
Mother's Trade Mark My Mother, who passed in 2008, was known by all her friends & relatives by her Tabu. The cologne, nail polish & lipstick. Bermuda Red. Her hands were THE MOST beautiful, delicate and nails as strong as a horses hoof - long and cared for extremely well. I know the lipstick stays put, because when I was roughly 2 yrs old, *1964* I wanted to play dressup while she was at work, slipped away from Grandma and colored the full size hobnail white bedspread with it. It never came out. :) I have had that tale told so many times in my life.... To this day, I love having it on hand, just for the memories, and when I am sick or feel down in heart, a quick spray of Tabu on my pillow, and suddenly I feel safe. Although I often have tears, they are warm ones. All that is needed to make it perfect is to hear either Ramblin Rose ( Nat King Cole ) or Alley Cat (Bent Fabric) I have already set *My Trademark* with my children, from 33 to 25 yrs old, already they do the same. :) My brand is different though......

A gift always appreciated. I always give this as a gift to my cousin who just loves Tabu. A great gift for that someone who is nostalgic for the time Tabu was popular, June 11, 2013
Best Lipstick I Ever Tried! This lipstick stays on all day without feathering. I can put a bit of gloss on and I still look fresh. The colors are beautiful. Bermuda Red is my favorite. March 4, 2013
The product is not smear proof as advertised. I was really looking forward to this product but was extremely disappointed. February 27, 2013
Fabulous, long lasting color Love the color. Frequently use it as a base with gloss over it. Wish the manufacturer would buff up the cap - only disappointment is the cap rarely lasts as long as the lipstick! September 27, 2012
Turn back time Use to wear this when I was in high school, always loved the color, made me feel like a teenager again August 15, 2012

What Our Customers Are Saying about Our Tabu Long-Lasting Lipstick …

"In the 70's I bought a tube of Tabu Lipstick but the best I recall was that it was called "Argentina Red." I got it in Springfield, MO, at a big department store and thought I would never ever find it again. I asked in a post at thriftyfun.com and this website was given as the answer 3 times! I feel so lucky to now know it was not lost forever! THANKS!!!" - Veronica, Sedalia, MO

"If I told you how many lipsticks were in my makeup drawer, you wouldn't believe me. All of them either just smear all over or just don't stay on or chap my lips. I just received my Tabu lipstick and put it on. I can't tell you how pretty the color is (Granada) and how good it stays on. This lipstick is definitely going to be a main staple in my makeup drawer. I am going to buy another color soon. Thanks, Vermont Country Store!" - Janet D'Urbano, Newtown Square, PA

"I'm thrilled that I finally found a lipstick that really stays on! I plan on "stock-piling" the shade Bermuda Red, in case it becomes unavailable! Thanks for selling a lipstick that is far superior to anything I've ever purchased in the past!" - Mary Asher, Fort Lauderdale, FL

“I put this on in the morning, drink coffee or water throughout the day, eat lunch, and at 5:00 pm, it's still there, sometimes so rich looking that I don't have to reapply it at all. And it doesn't dry out my lips. Amazing stuff.” - DD Breeland, Dallas, TX

"I bought a few other longstay lipsticks from elsewhere at about the same time I purchased the Tabu lipstick from you. After giving a fair trial to all, I can truthfully say that the Tabu is the only one that lass, no matter the price. I will be ordering exclusively Tabu from now on." - Lois Tart, Laurel, MD
