Kendall Jenner is the new face of Estee Lauder

I thought it was suppose to be about makeup? It looked like an ad for a new horror film.

The smell is awful! It smells like it's going bad, even though it isn't.
Yuck.

I love Voluminous. I also like Maybelline's Full 'n Soft mascara. I go back & forth between those two.
Voluminous tends to dry out rather quickly, but you can put a few drops of saline solution in it & it perks it right back up.

Terrible ad. The main reason being, it doesn't tell us what "little black primer" is supposed to do, regardless of who the model is.

No kidding! I got some free stuff from them some years ago and the lipstick stank to high heaven and tasted even worse! That was when I swore off of them-only exception is their lip conditioner, no smell and lasts me a very long time.

^ My sister used to love to buy me the Estee Lauder makeup sets for the holidays and they were gorgeous, but the lipsticks were straight from the bowels of hell. They went right in the garbage, I couldn't give them away. They're STILL like that?

i don't think so or maybe it depends on which formula lipstick you get but the gold-accented packaging is seriously tacky and dated.

Kendall is a pretty girl but there's nothing special about her.

What I hate about the commercial is how she sticks her tongue out right before she closes her lips when she's making the shhhh sign. I highly doubt that was her idea. It is some ass ad person trying to do subliminal stuff, but it is such a fail. Otherwise, I think she has the model walk down and will only get better. She was built to be a model.

After seeing the ad, I still don't want to buy it.

You mean to tell me lining the inner eye lid is back in style? Oh geez, I hate that look.

The Jenner girl is pretty but is hardly what I think of as the face of anything, though I can't be sure if my revulsion is more towards her famewhore family.

It's true I haven't bought Revlon in over 10 years, so I'm glad to hear it's fragrance free, I'll try it!
