CANMAKE Just For Me Essence Rouge: A soft pink coral lipstick that doesn’t make me look washed out

Who doesn’t love pretty princessy packaging? I do. Pretty? Sold. Princessy? Sold! sold! Canmake had quite a busy year as they launched a few new products earlier this year. Among the few new products launched in May is this CANMAKE Just For Me Essence Rouge lipstick.

After all the oohhss and ahhhss on the pretty packaging, the first thing I was eager to find out is the shade I got. However, knowing Canmake, I knew Canmake shades would be on the girly girl side, which is literally right down my alley so I wasn’t worried that I was sent a nude shade 😛

CANMAKE Just For Me Essence Rouge is a moisturizing lipstick dry and chapped lips. It comes with SPF20 PA++, colours that are vivid true-color finish and natural gloss that plumps up the lips. Overall, there are just 4 shades available:

  • [C01] Natural Beige – A versatile beige ideal for any occasion.
  • [C02] Camel Beige – A yellowish beige for a sophisticated finish.
  • [C03] Brilliant Red – A bright, glossy red.
  • [C04] Pink Coral – A pink that will make a superb impression.

Guess which shade I got? I got [C04] Pink Coral, which is exactly what I was hoping for. I am always with mauve-y shades, which resembles my lips but better shade or deep red. I have always wanted to try coral shade but I can never seems to find any that can goes on my darker lip tone.

Now the princessy packaging. This lipstick caught me by surprise just a little as it’s quite petite compared to other lipstick. Interestingly, I found out that the base of the gold cap features a ‘ring-like’ motif, with a crystal in the middle, just like an engagement ring. The base of the tube on the other hand is designed to be as the size 9 ring and Canmake has a good reason for it. It’ is said to be a symbol of the brand’s hope that all the girls who wear the lipstick will be lucky in love. Okay Canmake. Please send me a dozen of this lipstick please? 🙂

In order to close the cap back to the lipstick tube, the cap need to be aligned in a specific way. The crystal is required to be aligned with the word Canmake. Otherwise it doesn’t close down. When you do, it goes down with a solid and loud click.

[C04] Pink Coral is exactly a pinky coral shade on the lipstick bullet. I like that the lipstick doesn’t comes with the typical lipstick scent. Coral shade usually make me look washed out. This one doesn’t 🙂

Canmake Just For Me Essence Rouge Shade
When I used it for the first time, I get a rather matte and opaque finishing. That was because the bullet is new. When I used it subsequently, the lipstick is actually very moisturizing and not matte like how it is for the first time. Well, understandably this is a moisturizing lipstick after all 😀 . I actually prefer it to be matte as I can get an opaque coverage. As I have darker lips, it doesn’t goes on too coraly on me. My lips catches more of the pink than coral *lol*, to which I have no complain at all. I like that the shade goes on pretty soft on my lips and doesn’t wash my complexion out. Although the shade payoff is soft, it blends well with my skin tone and complexion overall. Lip balm is not necessary prior applying the Just For Me Essence Rouge lipstick as the lipstick will slip away and settle into lip wrinkles. This lipstick is moisturizing enough to be used on it’s own 🙂 . It’s very comfortable on the lips, doesn’t wear off fast despite frequent sipping on the straw from my water bottle. However I do need to press my lips together thereafter to even out the colour because afterall this is a moisturizing lipstick, not matte.
