Review: Essence Longlasting Lipstick 01 Coral Calling

Hi guys!
Part of Essence's new permanent line is a new lipstick line in a black packaging. The line is called Longlasting Lipstick, and the color I have to show you is called 01 Coral Calling.
Information:
  • Essence Longlasting Lipstick 01 Coral Calling
  • part of the permanent line since August 2013
  • costs 2,29 Euros
  • shade is a coral pink shade
  • has a sweet scent
  • contains no shimmer particles whatsoever
Positives:
  • price
  • availability
  • nice shade
  • easy to apply
  • creamy texture
  • no shimmer particles, but still has a nice sheen to it, it's not matte
  • doesn't dry out my lips
Negatives:
  • requires reapplication after some time, doesn't last too long due to the creamy formula
  • the scent might be too strong

I really like the color of this lipstick, but when I looked into my collection I realized I already own a couple of similar shades. In the comparison pictures you can see
  • Alterra's Caring Lipstick in 06 Coral, which is a bit darker
  • Catrice's Oceana LE Lipstick in C01 Ocean Sunrise, which is pinker
  • Astor's Lipcolor Butter in 011 Feeling Feline, which is brighter but the closest match
I do really like this lipstick, it's quality might not be that outstanding, but for the price it's a great product!
Has anyone of you tried this lipstick?
xoxo, Misch
