I was browsing my iPhoto and came across some pics I was supposed to blog about but never got around to posting. So today I'm sharing swatches of my Beauty de Kose, ESPRIQUE PRECIOUS Dress On Glossy Rouge in BE 280, a lip gloss I purchased a long time ago, and my (unintended) matching NOTD! haha! thought it was too cute not to share.
the flat paddle applicator has 2 sides: a fuzzy and a flat side
the fuzzy side is convenient to use and being flat makes it easier to apply color on the lips, I think the flat side is meant for thinner application of the gloss. (Please correct me if I'm wrong.)
swatch:
The consistency and color reminds me of Canmake Nudy Glow lip gloss. Its a moderately pigmented gloss in a soft beige-coral-pink shade with very fine shimmers, neutral enough when worn to pair with a lot of colors like green, blue, brown, peach, beige... It feels a bit sticky, but that can always be fixed with blotting. :) I also find this gloss moisturizing, which is great! I'm going to wear this a lot this S/S season, paired with some Lunasol palettes I got recently.
NOTD:
Essie Shop till I drop, 2 coats + Arezia (Sasa brand) heart glitter polish ~which reminds me of Nicole by OPI x Justin Bieber Step 2 The Beat Of My Heart. (please note that this photo was taken last year.)

Its quite challenging taking those glitter hearts out of the bottle I tell you.
But its worth it. :)
Thanks for dropping by and an early happy Valentine's greeting to all of you!

the lipgloss is so pretty! :)i really like how it matches your nails G! haha! i agree those glitter thingies can be quite a challenge. >o<"
ReplyDeleteohhh, both the gloss and your nails look so cute. I really like the easiness of the sparkly hearts to put in the manicure, so it might be do-able for a manicure-clutz like me too
ReplyDeleteHi!! ^_^ that esprique lipgloss look really sophisticated! it's so lovely! & love the name of that essie polish! Shop til you drop! :P
ReplyDeleteThe Esprique is sucha nice pink color!
ReplyDeletep.s. Yes the lemon cream pasta is so good - had it tonight!
The lipgloss and the nails colours are so sweet and cute! I’m more drawn to the nail colour actually. Seems like Essie is a good brand. Often see gorgeous nail colours from Essie by beauty bloggers. Happy V day!
ReplyDeleteahh the glitters in the last polish is pretty! Are they hard to remove?
