today I want to talk about Essence's new LE, called Rebels. I already showed you the blush here *click*, and now I also saw the rest of this LE :)
The Rebels LE contains 1 duo mascara, 2 soft matte lipglosses, 4 nail polishes, 1 nail polish topper and 1 lip & cheek pot. Here *click* you can find all of the products on Pinkmelon.de.
The mascara is a double-ended one, but I don't know whether I would have bought it, since it was already gone at my drugstore.
The soft matte lipglosses are actually a cool idea, but both colors looked a little, dunno, dull and gray-toned to me...no colors I would get.
The nail polishes are 2 nudes and 2 brights, and they have a so-called Latex finish, which is just like a satin. I bought one of the polishes, called 04 Rebelizer. It's a bright shrek-like green with a slight shimmer. I just wanted to try it out, the color's really crazy! Surely not suitable for everyone ;) Btw, the bottles look exactly like the ones from last year's You Rock! LE, but the brush on these ones here is better. I used three thin coats for the swatches on the nail wheel, in the first picture you can see it right after I applied it, still shiny. And the second picture shows it a few minutes later, gone satin.

Last but not least, the lip and cheek pot. I already bought it, love it so far, review will follow. The link to my swatches is here: *click*.
What do you think of this LE? I do like it, but I gotta try the stuff I got first ;)

The green polish reminds me of some China Glaze from a recent collection.
ReplyDeletereally? I don't know it, but maybe I'm missing out?! Let me know if you know which polish it is!
DeleteI was going to say the green polish look a lot like Acid/dc from a recent collection by catrice. It's a lovely polish and the topper is pretty cool! Shame about the formula but at least it's workable.
ReplyDeleteyes, it really does! I compared them at the store and they look almost identical. but I think the catrice one has a shiny finish.
Deletelove the green one!
ReplyDeleteme too, I can't wait to try it!
DeleteThe glitter is too big for me. What I like the most is the lip & cheeks pot!
ReplyDeleteIt really is quite large!
DeleteHaha, me too :D
I have the same opinion about dull colors of the matte lip glosses so I also didn't get anything but the top coat looks interesting and I love the idea that you are able to transform every color into something more edgy and fun ;)
ReplyDeleteI had the same thought with the glitter polish :)
