Estēe Lauder has been the break out star for me this year. They have a nice range of nail polish colors and the pigmented creaminess of their Pure Color Lipsticks is to die for. The Estēe Lauder lady at my local Bloomingdale’s counter helped me to pick out the Pure Color Lipstick pictured above in Envious($27/.12oz). They were having a promotion where they included a complimentary lip gloss at no extra charge but they were all out of them for that color. She was kind enough to call around until she found the duo in one of their stores and had it shipped to me. Great customer service for the win! I generally prefer lipsticks over lip gloss but the Garnet Desire Shimmer Gloss that came with the lipstick is nice enough for me to wear alone, and adds a little extra oomph when layered over the lipstick.
I’m wearing two coats of the Pure Color Nail Lacquer in Hot Coral($21/.3oz) plus a salon top coat in the pictures above. I had a couple shades that were similar, but nothing quite exactly like Hot Coral. The lady that did my manicure said she loved how smoothly the polish applied. I think Hot Coral is a great summer nail polish color that you could also wear to the office. I will definitely be adding more Pure Color Nail Lacquer colors to my small but growing collection.
Have you tried anything from Estēe Lauder lately?

These colors are so pretty; I like the envious lipstick with or without the shimmer gloss and the nail polish is just as lovely. I like it when you do this lipstick and nail polish combo review.
Thank you Beauty! Estée Lauder is getting high marks from me so far 🙂
I actually really love the combo together – it looks a bit more orange and lively – though the single swatches do look nice on their own. Your nails look amazing! as usual – Ester Lauder looks like a brand that I've been sleeping on – the only thing I have from them is a mascara but since my hayfever has been playing up lately I haven't been wearing much facial makeup. Loving the coral collection – especially Rescue Beauty Lounge – it looks so cute and I've heard the formula's really good 🙂
Hi Mango and Fudge. The RB formula is pretty good. Let me know if you try anything from Estee Lauder.
