I've got everything put together but a good longlasting lipstick.
I've Googled, but couldn't find anything really recent. I've been out
of the makeup loop for a while, so I don't know if anything about the
newer ones. I tried Outlast when it came out, and I thought it sucked.
PLEASE help! Something that will do well on a Florida beach,
drugstore or highend. TIA!

For drugstore bargains, I like Revlon Colorstay. Because it's very
similar to my natural lip color, Rosetone is my favorite color for
everyday use in all seasons except summer, when I prefer lighter,
pinker, glossier shades. I can get a half day's use out of it before
reapplying. It can be a little dry and matte, however, so I use
chapstick or gloss over it, or often layer another lipstick over it.
Exfoliate your lips first before applying it. Put on the first coat,
finish the rest of your makeup, then reapply a second coat before you
go out the door. Don't blot. Top with gloss or another layer of
lipstick if you like, and blot that if necessary.
Even though it feels dry, it must lock in moisture or something,
because ever since I started using this brand my chapped lips greatly
improved.
Have fun and congrats!
