It's A Nude Thing

Following on from my Estee Lauder lipsticks post, I thought I'd write a little review on what was one of my newest lipstick purchases...Barely Nude.

The picturemakes the lipstick look like the perfect nude but in reality it's a lot darker which I surprisingly really like. It's a creme finish which feels moisturising and isn't cakey but it does tend be slightly drying which isn't something I've really experienced with any of the other Estee Lauder lipsticks. The durability of the lipstick isn't as great as one would like considering it is a creme finish, but I always find I have to reapply lipsticks a considerable amount due to always being in air conditioned or over heated environments.  

I am wearing the lipstick in this picture and although the lighting is awful you can see that the lipstick is a lot darker on application than it appears in the tube. (I'm the one on the right btw) 

Overall Thoughts

I love the colour of the lipstick on application and as with every Estee Lauder Lipstick I love the packaging! Despite it being slightly drying I am pleased with this purchase, it may be more suitable for those with darker skin tones but I like the way it looks with my milky, pale complexion.
