Estée Lauder - Pure Colour Lipstick - Maraschino

Like the least impressive Sherlock Holmes, I found out what this lipstick was.

But I look better in lipstick.

The packaging had long since lost any identification on it.

It is a lovely cool toned brick red shade.

Even though it is old, it is still super creamy and full coverage!

Over the Bianca J Professional lip liner in BJLL1.

And it lasts! It stays on so well!


This is the type of lipstick that just won't quit!

There are still Pure Colour lipsticks, but not in this shade and I cannot speak to their quality.

Price: 1/5 (~$52)
Scent: 5/5 (smells like sweet cherry)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Elizabeth Arden - Color Intrigue - Dare

I think my one may be a bit old, its quite dry.
It pulls on my lips when I try to put it on.

The colour is a brick red with a slight gold shimmer, which always looks like a 'more mature' colour.

Lip stick over BJLL4 lip liner.

This isn't really a shade I can pull off.

Swatch.

It also smells like house paint, not that desirable to have on your face.

The resulting colour is patchy and wears off quickly.

I think this is a pass for me.

Price: 2/5 ($20 for 4 g)
Scent: 1/5
Effectiveness: 1/5
