Hi everyone, hope this finds everyone in the best of health. Dubai's weather was awesome today, doesnt even feel like April! Hope it stays this way. Not long before the heat waves hit us!
Anyways, todays post is about my two recent recent [ well two months ago] so not so recent purchases. I had a sku blue silk dress and wanted some lip color with a pop. Nothing that blended in with muted colors. So i was on the look out for a orangish-coralish color. I ended up at bobbi browns store in Dubai festival city, since that was the nearest and i was short on time. Afternoons are a great time to browse since there are barely any customers and the sales assistant can give you their undivided attention.
So i told the sales lady what i was looking for and she showed me SOFT CORAL 7 and NECTARINE 1.
The shades are quite similar except for pigmentation. Nectarine is more glossier than Soft Coral, but soft coral is more pigmented. Soft coral also lasts longer than nectarine.
Will break it up in points
SOFT CORAL 7
NECTARINE

- Can be mixed well with other pinks to give some gorgeous shades
NECTARINE
- TREATMENT LIP SHINE
- SPF 15

Comparative picture
[ I also tried soft coral as a cream blush. Held up pretty well :)]
PRICE: EACH FOR 130 AED
AVAILABLE : ALL BOBBI BROWN STORES
Although they are similar shades i wear both of them quite often. I found the price steep compared to Bobbi Browns actual selling price on her website. So if you can get the products without any shipping charges from their website or when travelling , note down the price listed on the Bobbi Brown website so you will know how close or further away you are from the actual selling price.
Hope you enjoyed the post.
Thank you
