i got this b/c i could not find eastend snob which i was first out to find. this looked surprisingly close in the tube tho and decided to give this one a try. essential is much different to my surprise, its a dark peachy with maybe slight pink undertones but mostly nude infused with chocolate shimmer. quite a unique color and the coverage was very opaque. it didn't quite look right until it "melted" into my my lips a bit. this was somewhat frosty too, which i didn't care for. i found the whole taste/texture thing a bit wierd..and while the shine and lasting power was decent i'm not sure if i personally would buy these again. or at least this shade.
