I'm so interested in Japanese model's lip essence. It is in form of a liquid, but has intense color and gloss. Similar to a lipgloss, but with better pigmentation and minimum transfer.
At first, I wanted to buy Shiseido Maquillage. But considering Kose is easier to find here, I bought it.

Kose Esprique Rouge Stay Magic is a liquid type of lip essence.
Using iron-like tip, it stays juicy & glossy without repainting.
It is freshly colored, glossy, moisturized, gel coating, has gloss sustaining and moist wrapping ingredients.
Giving high gloss that makes vertical wrinkle inconspicuous, sustain the moisture for a long time without missing it.
It doesn't fall after eating and doesn't need to be re-applied because the gloss stays long.

After 15 minutes application when it is thick, it doesn't transfer anymore. The glossy finish will continues even after you drink. That's the advertisement for this lip essence.

The sharp tip fits in the contours of the lip, it is also turns small. Beautiful finish like pulling lip line just by painting. It covers wrinkles.

 The design of lip essence is usually in a form of diamond. Kose has no difference. It has a diamond-like shape, tiny tube. Very light.
The tip is very soft and smooth-lining. It is easy to cover cupid's bow.
At first glance, the diamond shape and the lightweight tube resembles a toy. But in a photo, it is very cute and shiny. It doesn't look cheap, even though it is in real life.

The essence covers my lip color and wrinkle, creating smooth texture. It goes on well on dry lips, moisturizing inside.
Shiny, glossy finish and minimum transfer to glass. It does, but not in term of disappearing.
Doesn't have taste and scent, like any other Japanese lip product usually. When applying it thick, it feels a bit heavy like lipgloss but not sticky.
The liquid turns to fitting texture on lips.

It is my lip color, huh.

It stays for a long time and can't be rubbed with water.
Has glitter particles but not over showy.
BE333 Chocolat Beige is a nude beige color. But even though it is nude, the beige covers my lips color well without dry patches.
Re-apply is needed because it will fade after 2 hours, leaving only the gloss rather than the color.

Kose Esprique Rouge Stay Magic BE333 is a suitable lip color for nudy makeup look or when you do smokey eyes, this color will naturalized it.
It doesn't make overall face look pale, even though I don't wear full-face makeup on because it has glossy finish and glitter particles.
I'd like to give another color a try, but there's only two here, BE333 Chocolat Beige and RO633 Casis Rose.
