Pride

There are lipsticks that behave, and then there are lipsticks that understand their role. Pride from Lip Esteem is firmly the latter. Let’s begin with the texture, this glides on with the sort of ease just a light, moisturizing veil that makes your lips feel like they’ve been quietly complimented. Color, just as described and shown. Wear time? Respectable. It fades the way a good party does—gradually, without incident, leaving behind something pleasant rather than regret. You won’t find yourself checking the mirror every 12 minutes, which is the highest compliment one can pay a lipstick. I will buy another shade in due time!
