More details and swatches after the jump!
The formula is smooth, only slightly sticky, and nicely pigmented; the Naked glosses are semi-sheer with some sparkle, and the Natural Purple shade is semi-opaque without sparkle.
I decided to try the #22 Naked Rose, #25 Natural Purple, and #30 Naked Beige.
Naked Rose is a semi-sheer brightened rose with golden shimmer. It instantly brightens my face when I put it on my lips.
Natural Purple is a semi-opaque browned plum. It is close to my natural lip color but a bit darker.
Naked Beige is a semi-sheer neutral pinked beige with beige shimmer. It doesn't do much by itself but looks great over lipsticks.
I liked how smoothly the gloss glided on my lips, and how my lips felt instantly moisturized. The glosses also have a faint cherry-vanilla scent that dissipates after they are applied. The glosses had nice wear as well; they tended to last about 3 hours before I felt the need to reapply.
The flash lightened the colors a little bit, but here they are swatched on my arm. From top to bottom: Naked Beige, Natural Purple, Naked Rose
Overall I am happy with the glosses and will likely purchase one or two more. They have enough pigmentation that they can be worn on their own for a more casual look, and can also add oomph to lipsticks for a more polished presentation. Also, I have a lot of trouble matching colors with my skintone and the Korres line has a lot of colors that suit me (I am neutral-to-warm toned and prone to redness because of my sensitive skin). Well done, Korres!
