I have recently purchased a tube of Estee Lauder Pure Color Gloss about two weeks ago. I picked Icy pink as my color. It was so hard to pick just one but at $20.00 a gloss that is all I can get right now. There are about eleven shades on Estee Lauder's webpage right now. and they are...
Hot Cassis
Wet Rum
Ginger Glaze
Quartz
Pink Sugar
Icy Pink
Star Pink
Copper
Rhubarb
Cherry
Praline
You can see a sample of these colors by going to the website.
THE PACKAGE
Estee Lauder Pure Color Gloss comes in a tube with a screw on top. There is a little wand to apply your lip gloss with. One thing about Estee Lauder I like is they have really pretty packaging.I really like the gold packaging.
THE GLOSS
The texture of Estee Lauder Pure Color Gloss is a very thick gloss. A little bit of the gloss goes a very long way. I usually try to apply it evenly and thin. There is a lot of color in it. It's not very 'glossy'... I really like the color, and it stays on very well for a gloss. I like how this gloss is very shiny. The gloss is not sticky and hard to apply like some of the lipgloss.
THE TASTE/SMELL
Estee Lauder Pure Color Gloss has a very light scent. To describe the scent, it is very sweet, sugary almost. The taste is pretty light also. It's not offensive at all. It's not something that would bother me. I would buy this gloss again.
MY EXPEREINCE
When I put Estee Lauder Pure Color Gloss on I can feel how soft this makes my lips. I try to put it on very late because there is a lot of color in this gloss, but it also is very shiny, and a little bit goes a very long way. If you put too much on the color bleeds beyond the lips so it's good to put a drop on and spread it out. Also if you put too much on when you take a drink, it's obviously on your cup. This is the only bad thing about it.
WHAT ESTEE LAUDER SAYS...
"Product Details:
A sublime twist of color and shine.
All the rich color and brilliance of Pure Color Lipstick in a dimensional gloss.
Goes way beyond shine to lavish your lips with intensely vibrant, ultra lustrous, full-volume color.
Striking, sophisticated case is quite chic."
OVERALL
I think this gloss is worth the price. It comes in a beautiful tube, the gloss stays on, and has so much color in shine. There is a lot of gloss in the tube, and it's thick so it a drop goes a long way, and it stays on for a good while. I like the shine, and sparkles of this lipgloss. I like the fact that there are so many different colors and shades, and I will buy this product again. The colors do 'bleed' a tad if you put too much on, that's why just apply a little because it does goe a long way.
This product is like having both a lipstick color, plus the shinynes of a gloss. The color is thick, and shiny and last long. I don't need to use a seperate lipstick with this.
So in a nutshell
