1028 Opium Poppy Velvet Gloss in “Queen Red”
ETUDE Fixing Tint in “Soft Walnut”
Mini review:
Both lovely formulas, non drying, the Etude tint is more kiss/smudge proof than the 1028. If applied thickly for a full lip, the 1028 doesn’t really dry down and feels like a gloss/standard satin lipstick.
Both colours are similar, but 1028 is a bit brighter (especially when worn in a sheer/gradient fashion) and is close to a neutral warm pillarbox red with a coral-red undertone when smudged out.
ETUDE Soft Walnut has a SLIGHTLY more muted brown undertone, and is a bit more forgiving if you have issues with makeup looking too neon-bright and clownish on you.
