Estee Lauder Mauve Mirage Pure Color Gloss Stick
($18.50 for 0.08 oz.) was a little surprise! It swatched a little sheer, almost streakily, but it was absolutely gorgeous applied. It’s a lovely shade of subdued cotton candy pink with a blue-base and subtle gold shimmer.
The Pure Color Gloss Stick formula is very creamy–it’s very much gloss-meets-lipstick in terms of the texture and feel on lips. I love that the color is semi-opaque without feeling heavy, and even though it has plenty of shine, it still lasts three to four hours and keeps lips soft. Like many other Estee Lauder lip products, it does have that sweet fig scent but no taste.
I think for those who were disappointed when MAC discontinued their Slimshines, you will find Estee Lauder’s Gloss Sticks to be a nice alternative. (And given that they’re all owned by the same company, may be closer in formula than you think!) The only criticism I have is regarding how little product they give you–0.08 oz. is rather undersized relative to Estee Lauder’s Lipsticks (0.13 oz.).

That’s a really pretty color on you! Hm.. I might be purchasing.
Love love love this shade. It’s exactly what my lips like to wear. 🙂
this looks lovely the colour prob wouldn’t show up as well on me though!
I swatched this the other day but didn’t buy it because of how sheer the swatch was! But now I think I’m going to go back and get it
Wow! Very cute light pink. I love pink lippie with gold shimmer <3
The first pic reminds me a bit of YSL Rouge Volupte, lol.
I’m so glad to see that Lauder has changed the packaging on these a bit- I have several from when I worked for them a few years ago. They came in regular Pure Color packaging, with a normal sized bullet, back then & are so soft, they’d melt and snap constantly! Forewarning to anyone who uses them in the summer!
Gorgeous! Really gorgeous!
that’s kinda like angel looks on me
The swatches looked kind of..bleeah. But on your lips the colour is very nice.
Very pretty! And I’m one who was bummed when MAC d/c the slimshines so I’m happy to hear these are similar.
Thank you so much! This is the perfect “Barbie pink” that I have been looking for! I’m so glad it’s blue-based, too.
Colour in tube reminds me of Viva Glam Gaga!
Now THIS is the perfect pink.
I wish estee lauder would change the scent of their lipsticks,I cant stand it.
this is my favorite type of color! a nice blue based mauve pink… everytime a brand releases a color like this i always get it no matter how many dupes i have. im definetely getting this.
Then you should als check out Rouge Prodige in ‘Lilac’
i want this so bad, been looking for the perfect mauve
Oh if only this was matte it would be a dupe for ysl lingerie pink
Do you use any lip base, Christine? Your lips look ultra smooth
Nope!
Hi again,
I’m considering between this and NARS Turkish Delight. What would you suggest for a warmer NC20-25 skin-tone girl? Thank you in advance!
I would recommend this, as Turkish Delight is really light.
love this. I bet pomegranite kiss would be gorgeous on you!
