G-Lish Cosmetics
8:11:00 PMI finally decided to try out G-lish products by Patrick Rosas. This cosmetic line is only available in Manila, good thing they have a website which takes orders online http://www.g-lish.net/.
I read a post from Shopcoholic's blog about G-lish and made me curious about their products. I browsed through their website and found a 7-pc Brush set which really caught my eye. I bought a 7-pc brush set, a bronzer, and a mini gloss trio. They have a flat shipping rate of Php 80.00 which is great.
Here's a Quick review on the G-lish products I bought.
The 7-pc brush set was sold at Php 350.00
What I like about it...* inexpensive
* cute design
* very handy, about 3-4 inches in length (it's more like a travel brush set)
* the eye & lip brushes where very soft
* the lip brush had a cover which transforms into a longer handle
What I don't like...
* Both the blush brush and powder brush were stiff
My Rating : 3 / 5
The Bronzer in Caffeine Rush was sold at Php 120.00
* inexpensive
* cute design
* it can also be used as a shimmery eyeshadow
What I don't like...
* it's powdery or chalky
* it's not pigmented if used as an eyeshadow (needs an eye primer for colors to show)
My Rating: 3 / 5
The Mini lip gloss trio was sold at Php 60.00
* inexpensive
* I get to try 3 gloss shades
* smells good
What I don't like...
* it was too sticky
* the colors barely showed
* the gloss lip brush easily breaks
My Rating : 3 / 5
To put it simply, I wasn't impressed.
I felt like wasted my money on these. (sigh)
Maybe I was just expecting too much of the product, and as you can tell it was a big let down. Oh well, that's why product reviews are here...lol
I hope you all had a fulfilling Sunday.
EDIT: Just received another set of mini lip gloss trio from G-lish today (Dec 2, 2010). They sent me another set since all lip brushes from the trio I bough were detached.
I'm so glad they replaced it for free... Yeepee... Thanks G-lish.
Cheerios!

I wanna purchase some before but I'm glad you posted a review on this. I now know that these stuffs aren't worth buying...
ReplyDeleteI don't like G-Lish too but I know a few who likes them. Too bad they did not work for you too.
ReplyDeletewow!! they changed it to black ferrule na pala. its prettier than the one I have.
ReplyDeleteI have been contemplating on buying from them, whenever I go to SM I would pass by their cart on my way to Toy Kingdom, but was too apprehensive but the packaging was cute and like eye candy, but then since I haven't read or heard reviews about it I would just pass them by. Thanks for the review and I just hoped they'd sell the brushes separately too I kinda liked the fourth brush...
ReplyDeleteThe stackable blushes are nice, promise. :P You gotta try them. :)
ReplyDeleteI hate the mini lip gloss too.. kala ko before kung ano yung color nung lip gloss eh ganun din mangyayari sa lips, hindi pala. too sticky talaga.. pero i never broke my lip brushes.
ReplyDeletei hate the eyescream eyeshadows too, too flaky if you'll put so much on your eyes.. :(
I have a question about Caffeine Rush, does it give you a nice golden shimmery glow when used as a bronzer or just ordinary brown? :)
