Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipstick in Pink Pink

A few weeks ago I talked about Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipstick in Marigold. Today I will be talking about the shade Pink Pink. Pink Pink is a really pretty pink and looks sort of frosty on my lips. I admit that it’s not something I’d pick for myself, but it’s actually very pretty.

Pink Pink applied just as beautifully as Marigold. It was so creamy and moisturizing. It really is a comfortable wear. I did find this shade faded easier during eating and drinking, but after a quick touch up the color lasted all day. The Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipsticks are also very forgiving when it comes to dry lips, but I found that Pink Pink settled into lines a bit. You can kind of see what I mean in the photo below.

I’m really digging these lipsticks and I’ve been reaching for them often. Don’t be surprised if you keep seeing them pop up. They’re just so comfortable! I’ve already added a few Spring friendly shades to my new wishlist. I’m thinking I need Tropicoral and a nice comfortable nude shade in my life. I’m also really liking the looks of Smoky Plum. It’s a good thing the husband got me a new toolbox for my lipsticks. I have a feeling I’ll be filling it up this year.

Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipstick in Marigold

April 7, 2016 | Beauty, Elizabeth Arden | 31 Comments »

Last week I received the prettiest makeup bag full of goodies from Elizabeth Arden. For those of you who don’t know, New York City is one of my favorite cities. And pink is one of my favorite colors. So you can probably guess just how much I love this makeup bag. Tucked inside were some of their Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipsticks along with their new Grand Entrance Mascara. I’ll be reviewing each of these over the next few weeks. Starting with the Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipstick in Marigold.

I’m really digging the pretty gold packaging. It’s so elegant and luxurious. Here’s a little description from the website. ‘Lush, luxurious color that lasts for 12 hours. Keep lips moisturized all day with a single swipe of long-lasting, high pigment color that’s comfortable to wear and sumptuously soft.’

I can’t say much about the 12 hour claim because I’ve never worn makeup that long. Well, hardly ever. Here’s what I can tell you. Marigold is a beautiful orange red shade. It glides onto my lips effortlessly. It’s incredibly smooth and creamy. While one swipe does add a nice pop of color, I personally think it looks much better built up. It definitely felt moisturizing and is easily one of the most comfortable lipsticks in my collection. It lasted pretty much all day (for me this is about 8 hours or so) and really only faded after drinking and eating. But that’s nothing a quick touch up can’t fix.

I’m so impressed with the formula. I’ve been wearing liquid lipsticks so often that I forgot just how much I love actual lipstick. It’s refreshing to wear something that leaves my lips feeling and looking hydrated and healthy. And Marigold is the perfect shade to ease into Spring with. Even if it still feels like Winter.
