Bold Innocent (210)
Estee Lauder Bold Innocent (210) Hi-Lustre Pure Color Envy Lipstick ($32.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a light-medium pink with subtle, warm undertones and fine, gold pearl. The finish had a noticeable pearl and light sheen to it, but it wasn’t too emollient or slippery on the lips as it had a very light tackiness to it overall. The texture was on the thinner side but not clingy, and it was comfortable to wear, though I noticed some color slipped into lip lines over time. It had semi-opaque color coverage, which a bit more than medium described. This shade wore well for four and a half hours and was moisturizing.

Sheer Sin (220)
Estee Lauder Sheer Sin (220) Hi-Lustre Pure Color Envy Lipstick ($32.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a brighter, medium pink with subtle, warmer undertones and white and pink pearl. The shimmer seemed just a bit larger compared to some of the other shades in the range, but it never felt gritty on the lips. The texture was thin without being clingy, lightly creamy, and comfortable to wear. The color yielded medium coverage with fairly even dispersion of the pigment, but I did have a bit of color pull into lip lines. I was able to wear this shade for four hours, and it was hydrating over time.

Pretty Shocking (230)
Estee Lauder Pretty Shocking (230) Hi-Lustre Pure Color Envy Lipstick ($32.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a bright, medium-dark fuchsia-red with subtle, cool undertones and fine violet and pink pearl. It had semi-opaque color payoff that applied evenly and smoothly. The consistency was lightly emollient with some slip, which caused a bit of color to gather in my lower lip lines. It was comfortable to wear over the six hours it lasted for, and it did leave behind a stain.

Formula Overview
Estee Lauder Hi-Lustre Pure Color Envy Lipstick ($32.00 for 0.12 oz.) is supposed to have medium coverage with a lustrous finish. It takes the Pure Color Envy and adds shimmer to it with the end result varying from lightly pearlized to more frosted and near-metallic. The shimmer is finer, so the lipsticks do not feel gritty on the lips, and the particles don’t migrate as the lipstick wears down. I would describe the coverage as more semi-opaque overall, though a lighter hand could achieve more medium coverage and two layers would give you near-to opaque coverage. It is lightly creamy with some slip that is more noticeable as the formula warms up against the lips. The wear ranged from four to six hours and was typically hydrating. The formula features a vanilla scent but no discernible taste.
