Esprique Smoothen On Liquid Foundation Uv

You know those moments when y'all hold off at something too can't aid but scratch your caput too mean value "WTF?" too "how did it e'er larn inwards past times the doodles on a slice of newspaper phase of production design?"
Were all the people inwards that creative coming together encephalon dead? Or possibly at that topographic point was no creative coming together at all? What close focus groups? Consumer testing? Were they all done nether a stone inwards around other galaxy? Or possibly solely half-blind women over lxxx were invited to participate?

Those were the questions that ran through my caput today during my rattling starting fourth dimension encounter amongst Esprique's stamping foundation a.k.a. Smooth on Liquid Foundation UV.

Hmmm... sometimes companies hateful well, but somewhere along the way, from the drawing board to the store shelf, things larn horribly wrong. This is non i of those times.

Sometimes companies larn a genuinely bad idea, but instead of discarding it at the starting fourth dimension projection meeting, they inexplicably run amongst it. And Esprique Smooth on Liquid Foundation UV is a prime number representative of what happens inwards such cases.

Chyba kazdy, z jakiejs okazji, mial taki moment, ze po prostu drapal sie po glowie i jedyne co mogl powiedziec, to "co to, u diabla, jest?" i "jak to w ogole mozliwe, ze ktos tego gniota wyprodukowal?"
Czy w ogole ktos tego gniota przetestowal? Gdzie i jak? Czy robily to 80-letnie babcie, ktore swoje ostatnie kosmetyki kupily xx lat temu?

To mniej wiecej co sobie pomyslalam stojac dzis twarza w twarz przed podkladem make stemplowania, czyli Esprique Smooth on Liquid Foundation UV.

Czasem firmy maja dobre checi, ale cos po drodze od projektu make wykonania sie im poknoci. To nie jest przypadek Esprique.

Czasem firma wpadnie na naprawde durny pomysl, ale zamiast pozbyc sie larn w trybie natychmiastowym, wchodzi on make produkcji. Ten Esprique Smooth on Liquid Foundation UV jest doskonalym przykladem takiego wlasnie stanu rzeczy.



When I saw a preview of this production on Haru's blog, it looked to me similar Japan's respond to the Korean cushion foundation phenomenon.

Today, subsequently playing amongst this "cushion" at the store, I am convinced that was indeed the case. But instead of only copying the Korean blueprint (with plenty modest changes to telephone outcry upward it its own), Kose (the fellowship behind the Esprique brand) assumed that Japanese women are stupid.

Sad.

But this is non the starting fourth dimension time that Esprique botched a Korea-inspired product.

Earlier this twelvemonth it gave us the magical Cool BB Spray:

Kiedy po raz pierwszy zobaczylam x podklad na blogu Haru, wygladal mi on jak japonska odpowiedz na fenomen koreanskiego podkladu w poduszce.

Dzis bawiac sie ta japonska "poduszka" w sklepie, jestem przekonana, ze taki wlasnie byl zamiar producenta. Ale zamiast po prostu skopiowac koreanski dizajn (z wystarczajaca iloscia malych zmian, zeby mozna bylo nazwac larn "oryginalnym"), Kose (firma, ktora produkuje linie Esprique) wyszla chyba z zalozenia, ze Japonki to idiotki.

Smutne...

Ale to nie pierwszy raz kiedy Esprique, zainspirowane Korea, wypuscilo na rynek totalnego gniota.

Wiosna tego roku ukazal sie w sklepach Cool BB Spray:



Which seems to select been inspired past times Korean products amongst Thermal Protection Factor.
And it's all swell too wonderful until y'all genuinely effort this spray too catch its color.
Despite what the promo photos show, this materials seemed to select been formulated for people a lot darker than the average Japanese woman.

I wanted to effort it, I was willing to pass the money. Unfortunately, I am non into spray-on tan look. Because that's exactly what the color looked similar - similar a cheap, fake, yellowish tan.
That was dorsum inwards May of this year. Now nosotros select September too all summertime long y'all could catch this spray bundled inwards value-packs amongst other Esprique products. Obviously, it is non selling on its own.

But that was non plenty for Kose, it seems, because instantly they convey us this idiotic Esprique stamping foundation.

Spray x wydaje sie byc zainspirowany koreanskimi produktami z Thermal Protection Factor.
I wszystko byloby pieknie i cacy dopoki nie zobaczylam koloru tego cuda.
Zdjecia promocyjne pokazuja Japonke biala jak dziewicza lilije, ale to zasluga nie spray'u, ale photoshopa.

Chcialam larn kupic, mialam dobre checi. Ale niestety nie dla mnie spray-on zolta opalenizna w kolorku jak znalazl dla blachar z Nowej Huty.

To bylo w maju. Teraz mamy wrzesien i przez cale lato mozna bylo kupic x spray jako dodatek make innych produktow firmy Kose. Czyli wychodzi na to, ze sam z siebie nie sprzedaje sie zbyt dobrze.

Ale Kose malo sie tym przejmuje, bo teraz wypuszczaja na rynek x nieszczesny podklad make stemplowania.



Clearly inspired past times a Korean cushion foundation product, this abomination was designed past times somebody who heard of cushions, but never genuinely held i inwards his hands.

It's a foundation jolt amongst a screw-on cap (how quaintly retro). Inside the jolt nosotros volition catch a circular elastic net. The foundation is nether the net.

To apply the foundation y'all larn a gigantic blob of sponge shaped similar a stamp.

Widac wyraznie, ze cudo to bylo inspirowane koreanska poduszka. Ale niestety, zostalo zaprojektowane przez kogos, kto poduszki znal tylko ze slyszenia i nigdy takowej w rece nie mial.

Esprique daje nam sloiczek z podkladem zamykany na zakretke. W sloiczku znajduje sie elastyczna siatka. Podklad siedzi luzem pod siatka.

Nakladac mamy x podklad gigantyczna gabka w ksztalcie stempla.



If the sample I saw today is whatever indication, this is non the best character sponge, either. I've seen amend sponges inwards multi-packs from 100 yen stores.

You're supposed to apply the foundation similar this:

Jesli to co macalam dzis w sklepie to rzeczywiscie gabka make nakladania tego podkladu, to jest ona niestety bardzo kiepskiej jakosci. Lepsze gabki mozna znalezc w multi-pakach z Daiso.

Podklad mamy nakladac w x sposob:



So does this Smooth on Liquid Foundation UV select whatever adept points?
Actually yes, it does. It comes inwards vii shades. Compared to the commons ii or, inwards rare cases three, Korean cushion shades, Esprique is the winner here.

But that powerfulness live its solely adept point.
The application method sucks.

Let me repeat it over again to construct certain everyone gets it - this stamping fiasco sucks.

Why? As cushion foundations are rattling thin, watery almost, too their sponges are non genuinely truthful sponges at all, the production goes on the human face upward smoothly too seamlessly.

This resultant is impossible to make amongst this tacky chunk of a sponge. No affair how carefully, how gently too how exactly I was stamping today, it was withal stamping. The foundation was likewise thick to spread evenly on the skin, hence it just sat at that topographic point waiting for amend days. Blending it amongst the stamping sponge didn't aid either. Here you'd quest a proper Beauty Blender, but hence it wouldn't live stamping, right?
The consistency of this foundation is completely unsuitable for this application method. Despite its name, the foundation is non liquid enough. After stamping, y'all withal quest to blend it out too blend it inwards somehow.

On the other hand, I suppose, if the foundation was to a greater extent than liquidy, it would live eaten upward past times the stupid stamping sponge inwards alarming quantities. Here it shows how of import the blueprint of the cushion sponge is. The geniuses at Kose evidently never looked at a silky Korean cushion sponge upward unopen too personal.

Wiec czy x Esprique Smooth on Liquid Foundation UV ma jakies dobre strony?
Tak, ma.
Dostepny bedzie w siedmiu odcieniach.
W porownaniu z koreanskimi poduszkami, gdzie zazwyczaj mamy dwa odcienie, czasem trzy, Esprique wygrywa.

Ale to chyba jedyny addition Esprique.

Nakladanie tego podkladu to jakis koszmar.
Powtorze raz jeszcze - koszmar.

Dlaczego?

Koreanskie poduszkowe podklady sa bardzo wodniste i ich gabeczki sa specjalnie zaprojektowane make nakladania takiej konsystencji. Podklad idzie na twarz ladniutko i rowniutko.

Taki efekt jest niestety niemozliwy przy tej tandetnej gabce make stemplowania. Bez wzgledu jak dokladnie, starannie i delikatnie stemplowalam, to wygladalo to na stemplowanie. Podklad siedzial sobie na skorze i czekal na lepsze czasy.
Do blendowania potrzebny bylby Beauty Blender, a tej gabce make Beauty Blendera niestety daleko, bardzo daleko.

Konsystencja tego podkladu po prostu nie nadaje sie make nakladania w x sposob. Choc w nazwie figuruje "liquid" to make plynnej konsystencji mu baaaaardzo daleko.
Ale gdyby byl rzadszy, to wtedy niestety zostalby wchloniety przez ta okropna gabke. I tutaj wychodzi na to, ze geniusze w Kose nigdy koreanskiej gabki w kompakcie poduszkowym na zywo nie widzieli.



And the saddest purpose of all this?

Esprique has genuinely adept foundations. It's a solid mid-range construct too I similar their color construct upward a lot. I am certain this foundation inwards itself is also rattling good.
But stuck inwards a jolt amongst a cyberspace on overstep too applied amongst a huge stamper, it doesn't alive upward to its total potential.

And I'm also going to ignore the query of just how a adult woman is supposed to comport this "compact" too sponge inwards her travelling pocket for touchups...

This abomination is going to live released volume marketplace inwards Nippon on Oct 16th.

H5N1 najsmutniejsze w tym wszystkim jest to, ze Esprique ma naprawde dobre podklady. To solidna linia sredniopolkowa i lubie ich kolorowe kosmetyki.
Jestem pewna, ze x podklad sam w sobie jest rowniez dobry.
Ale wepchniety w sloiczek z siatka i nakladany stemplem nie ma okazji, aby pokazac swoj potencjal.

Pomine milczeniem kwestie tego, jak rozwiazac work noszenia tego sloiczka i stempla w torebce na poprawki makijazu w ciagu dnia...

Ten koszmarek wchodzi make masowej sprzedazy w Japonii sixteen pazdziernika.
