Estee Lauder Insatiable Ivory (110) Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick

Estee Lauder Insatiable Ivory (110) Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick ($30.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a brightened peach with warm undertones and a soft shine. It had opaque color coverage, and while it didn’t apply perfectly, it applied fairly well with minimal streakiness. The color lasted for four and a half hours (shy of the six-hours promised), but it was very hydrating and comfortable to wear. NARS Raquel (P, $32.00) is pinker. Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lament (P, $18.00) is more matte, lighter. Melt Cosmetics Summer! (P, $19.00) is brighter. Givenchy Beige Caraco (107) (P, $36.00) is browner. Too Faced Melted Nude (P, $21.00) is more matte. Revlon Jungle Peach (LE, $7.99) is a touch pinker, darker. Givenchy Beige Mousseline (101) (P, $36.00) is darker. MAC Sweet & Sour (P, $16.00) is more matte. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

Estee Lauder Eccentric (260) Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick ($30.00 for 0.12 oz.) is brightened, pink-coral with warm undertones and a lightly glossy sheen. It had rich, full color coverage with a very smooth, even application. This shade, with its sheen, made my lips look smoother and plumper. The color lasted for five hours on me and was hydrating over time. NARS Natalie (P, $32.00) is more matte, darker. MAC Love Temple (LE, $22.00) is darker, pinker. Kat Von D L’Ecole des Femmes (P, $21.00) is more matte. MAC Toying Around (LE, $16.00) is darker. Revlon Snow Peach (LE, $7.99) is pinker, darker. Too Faced Bon Bon (P, $22.00) is pinker, darker. MAC Elegant Accent (P, $22.00) is darker, pinker. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

Estee Lauder Irresistible (440) Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick ($30.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a muted, rosy plum with warm undertones and a soft sheen. It had mostly opaque color coverage–a very slight translucency at most, which will be more apparent with those with more natural pigmentation–that covered well and went on evenly. The formula was comfortable to wear, moisturizing, and lasted for six hours on me. Tom Ford Beauty Negligee (LE, $50.00) is warmer, less glossy. Guerlain Air Kiss (304) (P, $37.00) is more shimmery, darker. Buxom Dolly (LE, $21.00) is lighter. Tom Ford Beauty Bittersweet (03) (LE, $49.00) is warmer, darker. MAC Out for Passion (LE, $20.00) is sheerer. Too Faced Pink Chocolate (P, $22.00) is warmer, brighter. Urban Decay Strip (P, $22.00) is very similar. Chanel Ce Soir (P, $34.00) is cooler-toned. Revlon Pink Truffle (P, $7.49) is sheerer. MAC Glamourdaze (LE, $16.00) is darker, warmer. Guerlain Gracia (P, $51.00) is more shimmery. Make Up For Ever #4 (P, $19.00) is lighter, more matte.

Eccentric is beautiful! I have a question, do you have the tarte 12 hour clay foundation? I would love to see a review from you. I don’t know which colour I should take, medium sand or light medium sand. I’m an NC30

I’ve been using it for close to 4 years now myself. I love it and it’s a medium to buildable full coverage and the finish of a mineral founation once it sets. I’m all over full coverage foundation because of my natural reactive skin.

Because it is full coverage can can catch slightly on dry patches but compared to some it’s not that bad (of Kett why do you hate by dry forehead!).

I have Revlon Pink Truffle and love it, want to get either Guerlain Air Kiss or Estee Lauder Irrisistable, looking forward to the Sephora sale !

I’m trying to stop buying high end lipsticks for a while b/c I have so many, but I love Irresistible…and all the dupes for it, too! Trying to convince myself to just buy the NYX Wicked in Power to quench the “thirst” for a new lipstick, haha.

So easy: ECCENTRIC and INSATIABLE IVORY! Eccentric is very pretty and my favorite, but I can’t also resist nudes, especially peaches. It’s a relief to know that the only one more unsatisfactory grade concerning Insatiable Ivory was longevity. And even so, I think that “four and a half hours” is a really good longer-wear with regard to a light shade. Eccentric lasted for “five hours”, that is, just half an hour more. One cannot fail to notice that the fact that the claim made by the brand has not been achieved in full was the major cause for this B+. I love this formula and very happy to acquire two other shades.

i’m just hopeless… Gotta get Irresistible, though already have Negligee, Air Kiss and Dolly. Is one of those kind of shades… I cannot help it!

I’m a big fan of YSL lipstick because they’re hydrating my easy to dry lips and I think Pure color envy lipsticks are something that come very close to YSL for me. although some colors are uneven 😉 I love pure color lipgloss too!

Irresistible is my favourite here – so pretty and elegant! <3 In lieu of being able to afford this at the moment, I might have to investiate Pink Truffle… or I could save my money…

ROFL! 😀

I have to admit, though, Eccentric is kinda charming. It sort of lives up to its name in that it's not wild or crazy, but it's just a little brighter than you expect it to be on.
