Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick 420 Rebellious Rose: Review and Swatches

Estee Lauder Rebellious Rose Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick Review

By Contributor: Agnirupa

Soo this is my b’day month you know and what better excuse than to scour the city’s malls for all those guilty treats you cant justify getting throughout the year. Enter- my new obsession with Estee Lauder and enter- their newly launched sculpting envy lipsticks! The shades are just wow and it took all my mind power to refrain myself from getting a couple more so that’s the shade today- Rebellious Rose! Let’s start with the reviews and swatches.

Estee Lauder Claims: is described as a “rich rose.” It’s a muted, rosy coral with warm undertones. Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick. Colour with the power to transform your lips, your look, your attitude. 

INTENSIFIES: Saturates lips with high-intensity colour-in one stroke. Lip-sculpting statement shades for all skintones.

 SCULPTS: Multi-faceted pigments create definition. Lips look beautifully shaped, sculpted, curvaceous.  

HYDRATES: Time-released Moisture Complex helps capture and seal-in hydration. Lips feel continuously moisturised throughout the day. 

Super creamy, glides on effortlessly, covers evenly. Sensually soft and smooth, luxuriously comfortable. The lipstick bullet is shaped to sculpt the curves of your lips. The case feels like luxury in your hands. And with one click, case closed. Full Coverage. 6-hour Wear

My Review:

The packaging is to die for..literally..with its trademark navy blue and golden tube and oh lord..a magnetic click-cap. Why oh why does luxury come so steep.

The bullet has a weird shape, as they claim for sculpting but personally I like my normal straightforward bullets better..oh well.

The texture is really really good..creamy, smooth, very very hydrating and applies evenly in a jiffy. Smoothens fine lines/ lip lines and gives a glossy hot pout!

The shade rebellious rose is a rich sexy rose pink color which because of its tiny coral pink hint can rock so many different complexions! It brightens my face up as soon as I put it on and sometimes when I need to tone it down a bit I just slather a nude lippie on top! Ta-da! (look at my last lotd for reference)

The pigmentation is great and applies opaque in 1-2 light swipes! It lasts on my lips very well too, well beyond 4-5 hours, a marvel ‘cause it is very smooth and creamy. It wears off and stays as a tint which is very pretty too! It has a slight vanilla fragrance which is yummy.
