Beauty Notes: Estee Lauder Pure Color Cello Shots


I've generally always abode by the rule that one should always concentrate colour on one part of the face. Usually that means one of a smokey eye or a bold lip. But lately for me it's been more about the ridiculous cheek, that bright stripe of crazy hue right along the cheekbone hitting almost to the ear. These Estee Lauder Pure Color Cello Shots come in great shocking colours -- I was sent the top two, 03 Xpose Rose and 04 Techno Jam -- that you just pump into your finger and smear across your face. And that colour really stays all day, so don't misapply, because you'll be scarred for a while. The downside? It also stays on your finger. But I guess if you don't mind being caught red-handed (hur, hur... or red-fingered, as it were...) that's okay. The packaging isn't super fancy -- while functional, the plastic bottle feels like it's made from the same stuff as iPhone hard cases, but seriously, for staying power, nothing beats this, and it travels well since you don't need an applicator or brush. Maybe if it were rebuilt with a squirt blush (like YSL's Touche Eclat) we could save our fingers? It retails for HK$300 at Estee Lauder counters.
