Cult Italian beauty brand launches in Australia
Cult Italian beauty brand, Espressoh is officially on Aussie soil – hitting selves in Sephora Australia on January 25, 2022.
The brand was founded in 2018 by industry veteran Chiara with the ultimate goal to bring high quality, inclusive, transparent and non-toxic beauty essentials to market and to the makeup bags of Italy and beyond.
The Italian brand prides itself on “high-performance back-to-basics” makeup with a bold Italian flair, quite like the idea of an espresso shot. Crafted in Italy, its coffee-infused lipsticks, mascaras, and concealers all contain a dose of caffeine as well, which helps for brighter, smoother skin.
Its major sellout product in a line of bestsellers is the GLASSY blush – a transparent bush formula that reacts with the pH of your skin to transform into a dewy, sunkissed tint.
