These look gorgeous, but ever since some years ago I bought an Estee Lauder lipstick than smelled too waxy and changed color on my lips (it turned way brighter minutes after applying into a magenta shade I hated) I have stayed away from Estee Lauder! Anyway, I’m sure formulas have improved a lot, but I’ll wait for your review!

Please review at least one of these Christine, I’m interested in your take on the formula. I’m always looking for a non-drying lipstick.

I want my paws on Pure Color Crystal Lipstick – Crystal Baby, Crystal Pink, Rose Petal, and Ripe Papaya. Christine, please review the formula…

It seems they re-promote some that I already have like: (3 favorite colors) Candy, Tiramisu, rose tea and Pink Parfait, tiger eye (hate this one, shimmering feel like sand on your lips)

Will these have the same EL “fig” smell as the old ones? I literally cannot wear it, makes me gag, and I’m always so sad to see so many pretty colors that I can never ever wear.

Oooo I love the Pure Color Lipstick collection, particularly Bois de Rose. Highly pigmented and not drying to the lips, I love love love this. I also love Rose Tea but my favorite is Bois de Rose. I use it as my lipstick cum blusher – the effect is all natural and I always get ppl asking whats the secret to my rosy cheek. It works like a charm and much better than Benefit’s Benetint or something. Seriously try it – never have breakout using it so far 🙂
