Oh wow!! I love the vibrant colors and how subtle they look on the model!
i saw a lot of people complain/ not recommend estee lauder makeup products because of poor pigmentation. have you used, tried, or swatched estee lauder products and what do you think about them christine? i mean this picture is beautiful but if it’s like a slight color wash, i don’t think itd be worth it
Hi Phuong,
I haven’t had any issues with the products I’ve tried, though I haven’t tried anything in a few months. I’ve always liked their lipsticks for sure!
ohh! I love it! I love the description! I love the colors. It just reminds me of a soft spring sunset in the garden…
On a non-collection-related comment:
Those brows are unruly and hideous on the model. I am all for the new thick defined arches that have come back the last few years, but they just look untidy and unkempt. I know Hilary Rhoda has always rocked the strong brow too, but it looks messy compared to the whole look.
I couldn’t agree more!! I have always loved thicker brows, but this is just downright distracting. . .
I agree. I usually think that her brows are fabulous but here the just look bad. The left one looks out of proportion to the right.
I’m going to have to check out the lip glosses for sure.
Really pretty and bright…usually, Estee Lauder dosen’t do anything for me but this collection looks interesting:)
is that the blush! ooohhh ahhhh (looking in amazement) christine what do you think? does este lauder have good blushes? would you buy it?
I haven’t tried any, sorry 🙁
I don’t know if I’d buy it; it’s pretty and I probably wouldn’t want to mess it up! LOL
I love when they have their free gift promotion! I love their mascara too!!
I am definitely getting that lovely powder and at least one of the quads too. The gloss looks lovely too. 🙂
I really like many of EL products. Sadly, I am allergic to their lipsticks. It’s the only lipstick that I have tried that I am allergic too. My sister was really happy about that. She got my entire collection of lipsticks.
Definitely want that Lipstick and Lipgloss, such a bangin pink! lol
That powder looks like a piece of art!
The model is gorgeous! 🙁
