Estee Lauder Pure Color Shimmer Gloss (Racy Raspberry, Passion Fruit)



Hi all \(^0^)/

It's Friday, and it means TGIF!!! I love Friday Saturday (and Friday is the sign of Sat is near) since it's weekend and I can relax and enjoying my self. Use makeup more experimental and more daring than in weekdays. This is one of the items I'm using and it add the world glam to any conventional daily makeup into something 'bling bling'.

"Gloss brings sensuality to a woman's face."

On the images, it's is clear I'm trying to make the camera focus but hey, the shine is really there and the sparks are va va voom. However, one tiny major problem, they are sticky. So sticky that my hair kept being stuck on the lips and it ain't pretty. It is best used when the hair are all pulled up and tidy back there. Or when there's no wind . . . and movement from the user.

The color goes out exactly just like in the packaging, less usage means transparent, more means bolder and careful not to drip some of these gloss (if used too much). When applied, the gloss does feels smooth then try move the lips like saying ma ma ma ma and immediately I feel the stickiness. After that, I start doing my activity, going out door and there it goes, the hair thingy. They sticks.

I do feel sensual using these lip glosses and the sparks are real. Oh well, enough talk, a picture worth thousand of words.




The Racy Raspberry is closer to my natural lip color, a bit red, touch of peach and nude. The Passion Fruit is closer to the red family, deeper color like more to the coral. Both offers a comfortable conditioner to the lips, it's away from chapped, more like juicy.

Use it anyhow I please, after lipstick, after lip balm, after lip pencil, before lipstick, after/before lip tint, it's speaks freedom and gives me liberation (beside the stickiness), or just like shown in the image above, use it alone.

The lip gloss is not waterproof and definitely leaves marks when kissing, smells fruity and wonderful too. Luxurious packaging and the main attention? The sparks!
