Recently I discovered for myself the perfect Coral lipstick and matching nail polish. By the way, the Coral is one of the trend colors of this 2019! Although these products are one the market for quite some time, I have found them only recently: the Lancôme matte shaker 270 Beige Vintage (costs around 27€ on Sephora.it) and the nail lacquer from Acquolina in color 09 Cherry (cost 1€ in the local beauty store AllScent).

Both of these products are vivid and highly pigmented. The nail lacquer I apply as a rule in two coats. It dries quickly and stays quite long – on my nail keeps about a week. On top of the two coats of color, I applied one top coat of transparent Essence Ultra Quick Dry – it helps to dry faster and keeps a long-lasting glossy finishing.

The Lancôme matt shaker I like to apply in one layer. However, since it is a matt lipstick (water-based), I use to put first a thin layer of balm (now I use Burt’s Bees tinted lip balm in Hibiscus) and on top, I apply the matt shaker. This way I feel my lips smooth, no cracking or tightening. It lasts all day long, practically goes off only when I eat oily foods (like really oily foods!). Tip: if you have thin lips, I do recommend to underline first with a lip liner to avoid the risk of spreading the color overboard, since the tip applicator is not slim.
