Estee Lauder Irresistible (440) Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick (Rs 2300)
Color with the power to transform your lips, your look, your attitude. Super creamy, glides on effortlessly, covers evenly. Sensually soft and smooth, luxuriously comfortable. 6-hour wear.
I had been hearing about Estee Lauder Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick for sometime now and wondered if these are worth spending my hard earned money. Then one day at Sephora I decided to try out some shades and no matter how much I was tempted to pick “Vengeful Red”, I acted wise and picked a neutral everyday colour which I knew would be used pretty much all the time.
Packaging – Let’s take a moment to praise this beauty ! High End brands surely make you feel good. Estee Lauder Irresistible Pure Color Envy Lipstick comes in a royal blue gold case with a magnetic cap/closure. It feels heavy and very sturdy.
Shade – A beautiful muted rosy pink shade with plum tones. I was quite confused about the shade but found it slightly close to Elizabeth Arden Irresistible Beautiful Lipstick which has more brown & MAC Mystical Lipstick (LE) which is slightly pinker. I love my neutrals and want to collect as many of them as possible. Irresistible will be a perfect neutral everyday shade for medium-deeper complexions.
Texture & Formula – Estee Lauder Irresistible has a creamy formula which is superbly moisturizing. I was afraid that it might end up settling into numerous lip lines that I have, though to my surprise my lips look fuller and hydrated throughout the wear. This shade doesn’t have shimmer/glitter in it. Initial finish is semi-creamy which soon settles into semi-matte. Formula its pretty light weight and doesn’t feather or bleed so I never have to use a lip liner with it.
Pigmentation – Two swipes are more than enough to get even application and conceal lip discoloration/ pigmentation.
Staying Power – I was quite surprised to see how sensible claim the brand made – 6 hours ! and Estee Lauder Irresistible surely stays on for good 5+ hours on me.
Overall Thoughts
Believe me I couldn’t find a single flaw in Estee Lauder Irresistible Pure Color Envy Sculpting Lipstick. Shade is superb, perfect for my complexion. Formula is moisturizing and keeps lips comfortable throughout the wear. I generally don’t prefer semi-matte lipsticks since they tend to look cakey/crusty on me after sometime, thankfully it wasn’t the case with this lipstick. I can’t wait to pick more shades from this range and currently eyeing Tumultuous Pink.

Love the shade and finish of the lipstick! Moisturizing and at the same time, long stay lipsticks are hard to find 🙂
