Here's an initial review on NARS SEMI- MATTE LIPSTICK IN CASABLANCA
PRICE: 1250PHP
PLACE BOUGHT: ESSENSES RUSTAN'S, MAKATI CITY
OTHER LOCATIONS: ALABANG TOWN CENTER; SHANGRI- LA MALL, ORTIGAS; ROBINSON'S PLACE MALL, ERMITA, MANILA
THE VERDICT:
I used to be gaga over bright coral lippies which explains why I have MAC's Crosswires and Givenchy's Sensual Rose, both that I sold this month since I found 'em too bright already. I'm the type of person who would always end up wearing something mute or warm so the bright coral lippie addiction became a thing of the past in an instant.
I've been eyeing this on the Nars counter for quite sometime now. So when I managed to sell my Crosswires and Sensual Rose, I got myself Casablanca.
I've done a review on the quality of Nars lipstick so this review is mainly for the shade. Please do check out the Nars label to read on my reviews on Nars' lippies.
It is indeed, a classic coral shade. It's a lovely warm orange lippie that stands out without looking too unnatural. For some weird reason, it goes so well with my bright/neon blue tank tops and shirts!
The color is L-O-V-E. I am soo in love with Casablanca! It gives my tanned skin a nice warm glow because it enhances it. For fair skinned people, I suggest you get this because it's such a lovely shade that will compliment fair skinned ladies. That is, if you want an orange touch to your overall make- up.
I'm lovin' this color and I can see myself using it almost everyday. It goes so well with my Nars powder blush in Lustre! It gives my face a warm, summery vibe.
Well, my love and inclination to this lippie just goes to show that I would always go back to basics and classics (and i love it!) :p

ReplyDeletechelle: haha. super thanks sis! it must be love. or my hormones. wahahaha. :) yup! me love warm corals now! :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks SO pretty on you! I love it! I really like corals too, but pink corals, if that makes sense. Something too orange wouldn't look right on me, but I repeat, looks amazing on you!

marce: thanks sis! :) as i've said in the post, i used to be a fan of bright corals (e.g. pink corals, peach corals, rose corals) and the addiction waned and i settled for warmer corals instead. :) thanks for reading! :)
