Estee Lauder Pure Color Crystal Lipstick

Rating- 5 stars
Price- The product comes in their chraceristic gold packaging and retails for around $22.However, Estee Lauder frequently has promotions especially during the Holidays where lipstick sets retail for $35 with 5 lipsticks in it. 1 lipstick is only $7!!! How cool is that? But, the pure color crystal is the most expensive of their lipsticks and there is only one of these in the lipstick sets.
Claims- "This incredible formula glides onto lips with daring shine. Cool crystalline shades dazzle with brilliant dimensional effects as this delicately fragranced lipstick gives off a fresh fig scent. Even the case is striking. "
Verdict- Glides on wonderfully and no need for a lip gloss

Review
This is a very rich lipstick and it feels very comforting and moisturizing to put it on. It packs enough shine by itself so there is no need to add on a gloss. Actually, I prefer wearing a lipstick like this rather than applying sticky, gooey gloss. Has anyone had the traumatic experience of lipgloss having leaked out while carrying it in the purse? :-( Needless to say, not an experience I would like to repeat.

Which is what brings me to Estee Lauder Pure Color Crystal Lipstick. Phew!! What a mouthful! So far, I have tried the shade "Ripe Papaya" which is a pinkish natural shade and is ideal for work.
