Lipstick Loving: Estee Lauder’s Red Apple

I loved the dark lips that some actresses like Sandra Bullock wore to the Oscars. It inspired me to whip out a few of my darker lipstick colours out of hiding. Today, I brought out an old favorite, Estee Lauder’s Red Apple. This is one of the Pure Colour Crystal Lipsticks, which feels very moisturizing on the lips.

The colour has a sheen to it and is actually not opaque. It can go on sheer or applied heavily like I’ve done here. It’s an easy way to wear red!

Red Apple isn’t super red but more of a muted raspberry with a hint of shimmer.
What did you think of the darker lip colours at the Oscars?
