Estée Lauder Bois De Rose Lipstick - Review

 I got this as part of a little Estée Lauder gift set and I think it's just such a romantic shade. I think the thing I love most about it is the texture, it is sooo creamy but still so pigmented. The colour is a lovely wearable dark pearly rose which isn't TOO pink (I'm not a huge fan of pink).

When I saw this, I thought it would be one of those items I'd pass on to my mother as it looked a little mature for me but I tried it on and was pleasantly surprised! It was dark and bold enough to give me a different look but not so bold that I can't wear it everyday. Having said that, I'm yet to sport it to work, I might try a light layer one morning :).

Overall I give it 8/10, it's not a colour I would usually go for (that's just me ignoring anything too pink looking) but it is a pleasant surprise, it's a really good quality lipstick and is a nice thick, creamy texture so you won't really need any gloss or balm with it.
