My Expereince
The first thing I like about this lipstick is the tube. It is really pretty. The weight of the tube is not too heavy but it is a gold shiny metal. There is a clear see through preview of the color on the bottom. This is good in case you have a few of these lipsticks you can tell which one you would like to use without opening and closing all of the tubes. There is a little 'EL' Logo on the see through plastic and when you close the tube the logo covers the gold top. This is one of the prettiest tubes of lipstick I own.
When you take the top off of the tube of Estee Lauder Pure Color Long Lasting Lipstick the first thing you will notice is the light 'fig' scent. It is not too overpowering, it is very light. It doesn't bother me at all. When applying the lipstick it feels so very soft. I like the 'frost' finish of pure copper. I haven't noticed an overpowering taste. It tastes a lot better then some of the lipsticks I have had.
I also have Bois de rose and I notice the staying power of this shade is a little bit longer then the pure copper. This is probably because the pure copper is more light, and a frost and the Bois de rose is more of a matte. Matte colors seem to stay on longer for me then frosts anyway. So I guess the staying power of this lipstick really differs according to the formula you do pick up.

Estee Lauder Pure Color Long Lasting Lipstick does not bleed for me ... It stays where I put it, and it does stay on pretty long. I do find myself reapplying it about every few hours or so. With some lipsticks that make your lips soft usually leave them feeling chapped and dry when the color wears off, but I have not noticed this with this. I have no dryness or anything when the color is gone.
To sum it up....
What do you love about this product?
The case is so pretty!!
How soft it leaves my lips....
The wide selection of colors
The scent
The preview of the color on the bottom...
What do you hate?
Only the price... lol...
In a nutshell if I could afford it I would own every shade they own! I really like the tubes, they are very elegant and pretty. So in conclusion.. Pure luxury? I think so...
