I loooove this lipstick. The texture is wonderful--slick, soft, not at all sticky. The shine isn't /outrageous/, as they want you to believe, but it is very shiny for a lipstick. The color, Crystal Baby, on PPP me is /exactly/ the shade of my lips, just a little more 'perfect', which is why I adore it--it's one of my holy grail 'you but better' products. Granted, it /does/ tend to disappear fairly quickly, but reapplication is a sacrifice I'm willing to make. I've seen that others have also had trouble with the sticks breaking on them; I just dig out the product, when that happens, and put it in a little jar to be applied with a lip brush. Despite these drawbacks, I always purchase again--I love the stuff that much.

Crystal Baby is almost the same shade as Dior Addict Rose Mirage... appearing pink at first but with a beige/gold undertone. Very unique and pretty, but not quite as flattering on me as the Crystal Pink shade in the same range.

On me (a warm PPP, green eys) this works when applyed lightly. It's very nude, unfortunately a bit greyish, thus making me look washed out if applyed too thickly. This lipstick formula also breaks very easily at the bottom. Quite nice, but won't repurchase. Edited: took of one lippie because this lipstick totally broke and sort of melted with out any good reason.

I think this is the worst EL lippie i have come across. The tube colour looks like a pearl pink but the actual lippie is this ugly rose colour. It's like the illuminating face powder.. the most unflattering pink that i have seen on my lips. Somehow this colour is just one big mistake on me. It looks ok, even on the hand, but on the lips it doesn't work, doesn't last and really sits in any chapped areas/

This is very pretty. Even tho I have very aple skin, my lips are rather dark and rosy, and this lipstick is about one or two shades lighter than my natural color, and I like that alot. It doesn't last very long, tho, but I got over that quickly. This was my first high-end lipstick, and I really do like it alot better than the drugstore brands I've tried. It has a much better texture, and doesn't have that 'lipstick' smell that most other lipsticks I've worn have. I really like this, and if I could ever afford it, I would buy it again.

This has got to be the prettiest lipstick I've ever have and seen! On the tube, of course :). It sorts of like a beigy-pink with holographic pink shimmers on the outterside. Don't worry, the shimmers didn't shows up at all when applied on lips, it's just a decoration to make the lippies prettier :). I didn't have problems with the scents but I took off 1 point for having ZERO lasting-power due to the creamy texture and glossiness.

This is the ultimate YLBB l/s.
It made my lips a beautiful glossy pinky nude color. I will absolutely buy again!

Pretty pale warm slightly peach pink sheer.Warm enough but just too pale for me. Washes me out.(light/med)But I think this would be very pretty on pale and warm skin tones.

LOVE this color! It's perfect for everyday wear, nothing over the top, but just enough to get noticed! It's a pinkish/coral shade, alittle on the sheer side. Adorable packaging! Goes great with Estee Lauder Fig liner. A definite must have!

LOVELY NUDE (with a hint of pink) color! it's a mix of beige and pink.. it's a really pretty color, moisturizing, lasts quite long, and the most important thing is.. the calm nude color, quite glossy anyway (and.. i didn't know that Claudia Schiffer was wearing this on her wedding day.. hahaha... GREAT THEN!) ^____^ nude color lovers' must-have! very sexy.. (i'm asian btw.. fair skin, and it looks good on me!)

I love this colour, its more of a gloss lipstick than a regular lipstick as it has alot of gloss to it and shimmer. Its a pretty pale peachy pink colour, very classy, great on pale skins like mine. Claudia Schiffer wore ths on her wedding day so if its good enough for her! My sister borrowed this for her wedding day last year too and it looked great on her with a bit of a tan too. Only bummer about this lipstick now is the lipstick has kind of broken off from the base so its suspended against the side of the lipstick container so I can only twist it up a bit to apply, great! Another downside is it wears off quite quickly but it is a really good colour and makes your lips feel very soft and glossy, so worth the money.

After reading a couple reviews here I went to check this lipstick out at the Estee Lauder counter. When I saw it I knew I had to have it. The color is really pretty, a peachy nude color that makes you look young, sweet and fresh but at the same time looks definelty polished. It wears almost like a gloss as it is pretty glossy and moisturizing for a lipstick. Also, the packaging is so pretty. Although the price is steep, I think it's worth it.

I love this shade!! It was shown on the View as the best "universal" nude this year. Well, I believe it is very good, not the best nude though (I will save this for MAC's Hug Me!)

This is very glossy light baby pink on my lips (which are light to begin with) with a tiny bit of shimmer. Gorgeous shade....my only problem & the reason why I have this 4 lippies out of 5 is the scent. I am **PLEADING** with EL to get rid of that horrid lipstick scent. I know it only lasts a short time, but long enough to make me nauseous! This is a gorgeous color though & lots of shine.

My everyday glossy lip color and what I'll also wear of an evening if I'm glamming my eyes up. Just a natural sheer color that works perfectly on my fair, warm-toned skin. Added advantage is that due to it's neutral color I'm confident to apply this without a mirror, so I do tend to use it as regularly as a lip balm.

This is the cutest darn lipstick I've tried in a long time. The SA at Saks who pointed it out to me described it perfectly -- she said that it makes your lips the same color they were when you were in 3rd grade.

This is creamy and sheer and gives my lips a sweet pinkish color. I like wearing this alone, with no other makeup for a really fresh, sweet look.

The packaging is a bit bulky for a lipstick, but it's so adorable with the little clear bit down the bottom that shows what color it is.

*edited* Although I love this lipstick, I think I am allergic to the scent. Every time I wear it I seem to get a kind of tickly cough - wah! Think I'm going to give up on this one :(
...A pinky-beige color, this is a lovely glossy nude look on me (warm-toned LLL). Love the packaging and pretty sparkly coating!

A beautiful lipstick but not sure if the pale pink lip look really is the best for my warm MMM colouring. It sometimes seems to wash me out a little. So despite the beautiful shine and texture of this lipstick I don't tend to reach for it often. If I do, I layer it over Bobbi Brown Pale Pink Lip Colour.

Pretty and glossy nude pink. The only reason I wouldn't repurchase is that I have this same color in another brand, which I prefer.
