This is my favorite gloss, as it is the only one I have actually finished and I am desperate to repurchase.

I love the texture - > non sticky
the smell -> not too fruity
the colour -> very shiny but not boring like a clear gloss

So, if anyone has this and is not using it, PLEASE contact me and I'll swap for something I don't use.

Thanks!!!

The thing about this gloss is, if you put on enough for the iridescence to show up it looks garish (shades of green, orange, yellow and pink), and if you apply more sparingly it appears as a clear shine. It's a fun novelty product and nice to look at in the tube, but I don't think I'd buy it again.

I find this to be a really fun, and versatile lip gloss that has quickly become a staple with my bag.
I don't use it alot with lipsticks, but I do like using it with various lipliners that I have. It makes whatever color I've put on my lips before look pearly, and adds a bit of a fun punch to some of the colors - including the light pinks.
I will definitely repurchase this prouduct.

this lipgloss definitely lives up to it's name - rainbow prism. it's beautiful to look at in the tube! i also like it on of course. =P on my lips, it turns a lovely shade of shimmery peach with a slight irridescent sheen. it doesn't really do much over lipstick though. i only gave this a 4 because the smell is rather strong. i'm not sure how to describe it but it can be overwhelming at times.

Great packaging and moisturing power. It usually looks pink on me and is so pretty...can be worn on top of other lipsticks as well.

This is a unique color -- sort of clear, but as previously described, with a "Rainbow Prism" affect, that is pretty cool. Looks nice alone or over other lip colors for a different look.

i love how this gloss looks, it flashes orange, pink clear, and green at times. the green isnt too hot but the other colors are. It feels thick but not sticky on my lips. i wouldnt buy it again because i like it but i dont love it enough to pay another 21$ for it. but i would buy it in another color

Firstly can i say i LOVE the way this lipgloss looks in the package, it seriously looks like a bottled rainbow - i don't want to use it because it's too pretty! it's not anything special when you put in on though, it's lovely and thick and the flavour is ok, but it has no colour and is pretty much a good quality thick, clear gloss that looks awesome in the package

When I first saw the ESTEE LAUDER PRISM PURE COLOR GLOSSES, I was thrilled- until I tried them on. The colors were boring, faded almost instantly, and I was unimpressed.


I never looked at these again- until recently. I was talking to some friends about these glosses, and told them that I was not impressed. They told me that one of the colors - RAINBOW PRISM was really gorgeous and I should try it on.


I shrugged and tried it on, and when I looked in the mirror, I was suprised that it actually STAYED holographic! None of the other colors had done that on me.


By accident, I tried on CLEAR PRISM over the RAINBOW PRISM and the effect is MAGICAL!!!! Wow, what a fabulous appearance.


There are some things about this gloss that bear mentioning, however. First of all, they do not work over anything but bare lips. I have tried them over all kinds of lipcolor, and they just do not work like they do over bare skin.


Secondly, the flavor is very plain, but the aroma is like sticky vanilla taffy- that might overwhelm some people.


RAINBOW PRISM PURE COLOR GLOSS is very thin in consistency. It does not stay on very long, so reapplication is to be considered if you are wearing this out and want to look just right.


The applicator on this stuff is okay. Applies a good amount. The container does not leak as of yet. I got these at a discount, but at full price, I am not sure they would be worth it.


I really love this when I apply the RAINBOW PRISM on one side of my lips, and CLEAR PRISM on the opposite side of my mouth. When they meet in the middle, there is a lime green that comes out and makes a really awesome highlight. I like to wear brilliant colors in the summer, so this lipstick is fabulous.


I also suggest that this stuff is best when worn in the daytime- sunlight is even better. It really brings out the holographic look in the daytime. Nighttime depends on the lighting.


I love using this stuff as long as I have the two colors to make really interesting lip designs. Just one color is not as interesting, even though RAINBOW PRISM is the more holographic of the two I have.

Rainbow Prism is a whitish color that flashes green and pink. These glosses have the coolest iridescent effect. The consistency of these glosses is thinner than that of the other Pure Color glosses, so it does wear off quit quickly. Despite this I will definitely repurchase these just because they are so unique.
