Estee Lauder’s Pure Color Gloss Stick in Nude Almond, claims to actually improve the condition of your lips after 4 weeks of continuous use. That I have no idea, because I don’t wear lipstick everyday, but I will say that it is extremely moisturising, when I want good colour, I’d pick this over a lip balm.
If I were to show you what’s in my makeup bag, you will find this particular lipstick. I love it because the shade makes it office / everyday friendly (it’s like my lips but better), it’s very moisturising and it smells lovely. The finish for this is glossy, so no lip gloss is needed if all you want is a nice subtle shine. The pigmentation is fantastic too, I love applying this~
Couple of down sides though, since it’s glossy, it is a little bit sticky. So I find strands of my hair getting stuck to it on a windy day, and it doesn’t last very long. I find if I put it on in the morning, after about 2 hrs it’ll be gone (during those 2 hrs I’ve usually had my morning white hot chocolate).
Despite that, I’d still recommend it for people looking for moisturising lipsticks.
So tell me, what’s your favourite nude / everyday lipstick?
Ooh I haven’t tried these yet, my fave everyday/nude lippie is Estee Lauder Crystal Baby <3
Ooh! I’ll have to check that shade out 😀 I love the scent of Estee Lauder lipsticks!
Me too it’s one of my fave makeup smells, so comforting <3
Looks lovely on your lips – subtle nude gloss. One day, when I get a permanent job, I am going to splash out 🙂
Aww, thanks so much! I always get nervous taking full face shots that are not in my little “make shift studio”, so glad it presents well 🙂
What a beautiful lipstick! It is really perfect for daily use b/c it looks elegant and pretty 🙂 I love it! My everyday lipsticks are really simple… I just whatever I have in my bag =p
Thanks! Lol that is simple 😀 I tend to get a bit of a build up in the bag if I decide to change lipsticks 😡
How pretty! I didn’t think it would come out looking that nice based on what it looked like in the tube, but it comes out amazingly beautiful on your lips!
It’s it? I’m constantly surprised at how different lipstick from the tube can look on the lips, even after all these years~
What a pretty shade, it looks wonderful on you! And I love the scent of EL lip products, it’s so delicious!
Aww thank you! I’m glad I’m not the only one who loves the scent 🙂
