Estée Lauder Pure Color Vivid Shine Lipstick in Brilliant Bare Review

Estée Lauder Pure Color Vivid Shine Lipstick in Brilliant Bare

Brilliant Bare is a limited edition Pure Color Vivid Shine Lipstick from Estée Lauder. The shade as peachy nude with a moderate amount of fine shimmer. The coverage is light-to-medium. The formula is creamy and lasted 4 hours on my lips. I like the color of this lipstick, but I found it difficult to wear. The pale shade accentuated the dryness of my lips in a non-attractive way. My advice is to gently exfoliate the lips prior application.

Make Up For Ever Glitters #4 Review

Make Up For Ever Glitters #4

The color of Make Up For Ever Glitters #4 is opalescent white with a violet reflection. When viewed inside the container, the product appears white, but when viewed in a thin layer the color's reflection becomes ultraviolet. These glitters are finer than I expected and can be used on the face or body. I tried to apply it dry over an eyeshadow base, but the product did not stick to my eyelids. So, I was bummed out. On my next attempt, I used MAC Mixing Medium and it worked!. I dampened my brush slightly and dipped in to the glitter, then patted it on my eyelids. With a damp brush, I had very little fall-out and it lasted a long time. The color is beautiful and the price is right for the amount of product you get.   

Rouge Dior Lipcolor in 638 Blazing Red Review

Rouge Dior Lipcolor in 638 Blazing Red

Rouge Dior Lipcolor in 638 Blazing Red is a vibrant red orange lipstick with a satin finish and no visible shimmer. The color is strong and might not appeal to everyone. The formula is creamy, long-wearing, and hydrating. The lipstick also has a strong floral scent. Both the color and the fragrance wear for a long time. In my case, I wore it for about 5 hours, but ended up with a mild headache due to the strong scent. After the lipstick wore off, my lips remained stained and I had to use makeup remover to get rid of the color. My two complaints for this product are: the high-price and the scent.

Estée Lauder Pure Color Stay-on Shadow Paint in Sinister Review

Estée Lauder Pure Color Stay-on Shadow Paint in Sinister

Estée Lauder Pure Color Stay-on Shadow Paint in Sinister?
"Sinister" is a cream eyeshadow with multicolored shimmer in a grayish-black base. The formula is supposed to be crease-free with a 12-hour wear.

I like...
The creaminess of the formula. The pigmentation is decent but not awesome. I did not experience any creasing with or without an eyeshadow primer. I wore it for more than 10 hours.

I did not like...
This shade does not layer as nicely as "Extreme Emerald." I tried building up the color, but I ended with clumps. Even though the eyeshadow stayed-on well on my oily eyelids, the clumps eventually flaked off.

Overall...
"Sinister" works well as a sheer eyeshadow or as an eyeshadow base. The formula feels nice but you must apply it quickly.

Estée Lauder Pure Color Vivid Shine Lipstick in Pink Voltage Review

Estée Lauder Pure Color Vivid Shine Lipstick in Pink Voltage

Estée Lauder Pure Color Vivid Shine Lipstick in Pink Voltage ?
Ultra shimmery light pink lipstick with light-to-medium coverage. 

I like...
The creamy texture and conditioning formula. I wore it for about 4 hours and my lips did not feel dry.

I did not like...
The sheerness of the shade. With the name "Pink Voltage" I expected a stronger pink, but it is just a light pink with a frosty finish. Layering the lipstick did not intensify the color either, it simply increase the amount of shimmer.

Overall...
The formula makes this lipstick very comfortable.

Estée Lauder Pure Color Stay-on Shadow Paint Extreme Emerald Review

 Estée Lauder Pure Color Stay-on Shadow Paint Extreme Emerald

Estée Lauder Pure Color Stay-on Shadow Paint Extreme Emerald?
It is an eyeshadow in a cream form. The shade is a vibrant green with fine shimmer and a formula that is supposed to be crease-free with a 12-hour wear.

I like...
The color! I haven't seen many green cream eyeshadows, in fact this is the first one I own.
The texture and pigmentation are great. The formula is super creamy and glides on the lids effortlessly. The color can be layered from sheer to an opaque finish. I did not experience any creasing with or without an eyeshadow primer. I wore it for more than 10 hours with little fading.

I did not like...
The shadow has to be blended fast before it sets. Once the product dried, I tried blending another color and I ended up with some fallout.

Overall...
If you are looking for a green cream eyeshadow, this a good option. It works great if you have oily eye lids like me.
