Good morning/good evening guys wherever you are in the world. I am about to sleep but decided to write a post since I'm listening to some good songs. Well back to the product this is my 10th lipstick from Gosh. Gosh is a Danish brand of cosmetics and available across UAE via Beauty Bay and/or Centrepoint stores. With the exception of NYX this is the most affordable brand in the said shop. The cheapest European brand. As I have said only in the said shop. 

I don't have much photos to share tonight as I have given up I took a lot of shots for only 2 photos came out a little decent. Sorry for that. This Gosh Velvet Touch 151 Lady Luck is orange red kind of lipstick but becomes pinkish when applied on my lips with the hint of orange. And I don't mind wearing it at the office. It gives color to my lips but not so bright unlike the other red shades. I am not against wearing red lipstick in the office as long as it looks decent but I'm refraining to do so as to avoid teasing from my officemates haha!

Typical Gosh tube. Matte with glossy part in the middle where the name Gosh is embedded. Bottom is where the sticker indicates the shade name and number. And the color of the sticker corresponds to the color of the lipstick.

And the swatch. Gosh lipstick is the creamiest brand of lipstick I own so creamy that it breaks so easily so I am very careful when using it. And they have fairly wide selection of shades. And that's it!

Actually since Friday last week I have an ample of time after work meaning I could have taken a lot of photos and write posts but I don't know I end up sleeping a lot. Making up for those weeks that I was not able to sleep/rest properly. And catch up with some series that I missed. I'm currently watching On The Wings Of Love. It is a Filipino romance comedy series and I surprised myself as I was not really into teleserye before. I'm also watching kalyeserye of the longest running noon time show in the Philippines called Eat Bulaga! As of today they already have 57 episodes and I have seen less than 10 episodes. Meaning I have a lot of catching up to do. But then those nights of staying late and watching has taken its toll on me today as I woke up not feeling well. Got a little headache and if I did not rest it could lead to another migraine again and migraine is something I don't want to experience again ever in my life. As I will surely not be able to do anything even eating. Okay.. Got to go to sleep now.. Thanks for dropping by. Ciao

I discovered Gosh late December of 2014. Prior Gosh I was crazy about Mac lipsticks. I am not a make up junkie but I developed a habit of being addicted to lip products especially lippies. And Mac simply became too expensive for me. I'll try to buy if the UAE price will be the same as US price but that is just so impossible. So with my quest for alternative to Mac my feet took me to Beauty Bay inside the Centrepoint where I met Gosh Cosmetics. I was drawn into it because the sleek tube looks expensive. Price wise it's one of the most affordable brands I came across at the shop. And in UAE. Price was the number one factor why I have chosen it out of all the other brands the sales associate offered me. Well Essence is a different story. And they seem to have a lot of nude and light colors so I went ahead and purchased some. Today I'll be sharing you my Gosh in 162 named Nude and here it is:

Gosh for those who are not aware is a cosmetics and fragrance company based in Denmark. Their products are Made in EU otherwise stated. But I'm not too sure if this lipstick is made in EU as it is not written anywhere on the tube. But I don't mind. It does not come in a box. The middle of the tube is glossy where the name Gosh is embossed. And at the bottom of the tube you'll see the name name/number of the lipstick. The color of the paper/sticker correspond to the shade of the lipstick. I bought this one sometime in January during Dubai Shopping Sale means it has been sitting inside my dresser untouched for such a long time. 

There's a very slight difference between the photo and the actual lipstick and believe me it has been my long time frustration in taking photos as I wanted my photos to be exactly the same color with the objects as much as possible and I'm trying to work on that. But anyway without swatching it and by just looking at the lipstick the color looks like pinkish brown and I think the name Nude just suits it perfectly.

Here's the swatch. 

And another swatch. Gosh Velvet Touch 162 Nude in color looks like pinkish brown but leaning more into brown but when swatch you'll see it more of a peach. Sadly photos did not really do justice. This is nay for me. But just because it does not work for me does not mean that Gosh is a bad lipstick. I love Gosh lipstick. But this shade does not suit me. And I purchased it at the time that all I know was I want nude lipsticks but do not know yet how to choose one based on my skin tone and/or lip pigmentation. That being said I have quite a few epic fail lipsticks in my drawer. But at least now I know better.

Gosh lipstick is creamy and glides on smoothly but you have to be careful as it breaks easily. It happened in one I owned just because I put on a little pressure while applying it on my lips. That's all for now. I'll be back again with another Gosh Lipstick post. Thanks for dropping by and feel free to visit my page again and/or leave a comment below.
