Rebellious Rose

Estee Lauder Rebellious Rose Pure Color Matte Lipstick ($36.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium-dark pink with subtle, warm undertones and a satin finish that did wear down to a soft matte finish within an hour of wear.

  • Semi-opaque coverage, buildable
  • Lightweight, lightly velvety but on the thin side, a touch clingy after an hour of wear
  • Applied evenly and smoothly
  • Short-wearing (5 hours of the 10 hours claimed), non-drying

Formula Overview

$36.00/0.12 oz. - $300.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "medium to full coverage" with a "velvety matte finish" that lasts for 10 hours without "bleeding, feathering, or creasing." They had semi-opaque to opaque color payoff in a single layer with a very lightweight feel--more of a velvety matte but thin (not in a bad way, as it wasn't clingy) and had a medium-firm feel in the tube. Most shades applied more evenly and were more forgiving of lip lines/lip texture than I expected, which was a nice surprise.

They didn't cling on uncomfortably, which felt good, but the wear time was nowhere near 10 hours--four to five hours with a few shades coming in at six hours, but it wasn't a particularly long-wearing/stellar wear kind of formula.

The previous formula was a denser, more velvety matte with slightly more weight and body to it, so it had higher coverage in a single stroke but was more noticeable on. In comparison, the previous formula also had a touch more shine, despite being labeled matte. The ingredient lists are quite different with the new formula being comprised of several silicone-based ingredients in the beginning of the list.

It seemed to have a faint sweet, vanilla-like scent but no discernible taste.
