Product: Pure Color Lipstick 

Colour: Plum Couture

Price: £21

Rate: 10/10

I went to Boots today, and I somehow "stumbled" across the Estēe Lauder make up counter. Now I wouldn't normally buy anything from the more high end counters, I usually stick to the Collection and Rimmel London make up counters. Today I picked up my results from my college and found out that I had passed my Fashion Design course with a D*D*D*. (For those who don't know, a D* is the highest possible grade you can get on my course)! So, I was in the mood to treat myself for all of my hard work and effort over the last two years. 

Now I am definitely a lipstick kind of girl. I don't think I can count how many I actually have! (If I could only have one make up product for the rest of my life, it would be lipstick). So it was inevitable that I was going to buy myself a new lipstick. 

This is the Estēe Lauder Pure Color, Long Lasting Lipstick, in the colour Plum Couture, and it was £21. Now, I think that £21 is very expensive for a lipstick, but with this one you are definitely getting your money's worth!  

Can we all just take a moment of appreciation for the packaging please? The gorgeous lipstick is packaged in a very sleek, gold lid. The bottom of the packaging is clear and you can see the colour of the lipstick through it. The lid is separated from the lipstick tube by a gold band, which has the Estēe Lauder logo on it.

The actual lipstick itself is basically as the name describes. Plum Couture is the perfect name for this lipstick, as it is a gorgeous deep plum colour, with a sort of mauve, reddish undertone. (Perfect for Autumn/Winter). It isn't a matte lipstick unfortunately, but it is super moisturising and you do not need to build it up to see the colour, like you do with other lipsticks. 

I personally love this lipstick, and I think I may possibly go back for other colours in the future. I would definitely recommend this lipstick to anyone and if you haven't tried it, you should! This is undoubtably my most favourite lipstick and I've only had it a day!
