Essence Cosmetics Review




essence Review

essence cosmetics



one of my favorite drug store brand, made in Germany, cruelty free, very affordable and budget friendly

unfortunately currently they do not have an online store. but
you can find essence products in many European countries, for example Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, Spain, Croatia, Italy, Switzerland, Austria also i found it in south Africa and united Arab emirates at few selected stores..you can now also shop online from ultah online store, you will not find everything but they do curry a wide variety


essence do not test on animal..
on their web page they "assure that cosnova neither conducts testing on animals, nor commissions it to any third parties – not in Germany or anywhere else in the world. we strongly disapprove of testing on animals for cosmetics products."


essence lipsticks
from left to right..Red Carpet, All About Cupcake, Sparkling Miracle, Fairytale, Prom Night


 
I love extreme Mascara..I love it, ultra black and extreme volume

I have a collection of their products from blushes to lip gloss to mascaras and many other stuff as they have a full range of make up the line is still expanding and everyday you find new blogger talking about essence and its all true and honest opinion because essence do not send free sample and products to bloggers for reviews which is what they wrote on their page
I've been using their products for 2 years now and I love most of what I've tried..

some of the hits

-I love extreme Mascara
gives me volume, make my eyelashes full and thick I get many compliments every time I wear it
-lipsticks (red carpet-fairytale-all about cupcake-sparkling miracle)
very moisturizing, soft sheer colors, buildable, glossy finish
-cover stick (matt beige)
blendable, creamy medium to full coverage
-blush (10 adorable- 20 fashionista)
silky, look natural
-brushes (smokey eye brush- gel eyeliner brush)
soft, doesn't shed,

Few of the the misses

- lip gloss XXXL shine (13 Rock On)
odd color, you can feel the glitter on the lips
-eyeshadow sparkling effect (03 starlight)
the shimmer is only a spray finish on top of the eyeshadow, the color itself is a light grey, lots fallout
- l love stage eyeshadow base
doesn't prevent creasing or enhance your eyeshadow color



Product Review..Viva Glam Nicki 2


 
Viva Glam Nicki 2

I always like to drop by Mac counter and check stuff out, new collection, old favorites..it's always fun for me to be surrounded by so much make up not to mention the brushes, oh I love brushes..a good blending brush is the secret to an amazing sultry smokey eye but wait!....back to our main subject Viva glam nicki 2 lipstick...
 
I had to grab this one..the color is so unique, described by Mac website as " a vivid pastel lavender pink, with a subtle sexiness and satin finish that's so Nicki. Every cent of the selling price goes toward helping women, men and children living with and affected by HIV/AIDS. Limited-edition."
 
 




 
well getting this lipstick will not just make you a total diva but will be a contribution to humanity and good well..just looking at it makes me feel happy..I know that it's not an easy color to pull off but u can play with it using different shades of lip pencils..it is definitely a color that shout confidence and fashion sense..

Embrace the Nicki inside you, go and grab it..

Mask of Magnanimity Review


My skin was acting out the last couple of days..I was trying a new foundation and it broke me out..I needed a super fast and effective solution..and I knew what skin product that I can always depend on..it's Lush “Mask of Magnaminty”.....I highly recommend this face and body mask even if u don't have skin problem ..it helps clean and clear your skin and give you a wonderful facial and spa experience at home..I usually put some of it in a small jar and bring it with me when I travel..
The Mask smells like mint and fresh herbs..you apply it and let it dry then you remove it with a damp cloth or just wash it off with warm water..
I love lush and this is a product that I’ll always keeps on purchasing because it WORKS! Really WORKS..

My first Lush haul



Hi guys..I have a big crush on Lush, I love their products and I love the concept of fresh natural cosmetics.. you definitely need to check one of their stores and browse, ask questions and sniff your way around the amazing scents...lush staff are very friendly and helpful so don't be shy...
 they have soap, lotions, shampoos, bath bombs, bubble bars, face wash etc ...you can check their products on their website www.lush.com  
 I went to Dubai mall couple of days a go and got some goodies from lush that I'd like to share with you guys..i got some old favorites and new stuff to try...
old favorites..
The Comforter "bubble bar"
this bubble bar is so yummy and can last you up to 4 baths, because its big comparing to other bubble bars..you can break it or cut it into two or four pieces..its one of my favorites scents..smells like blackberry and cotton candy..
Jasmin & Henna fluff-ease "hair mask"



I have curly frizzy hair and this one worked really well with my hair..and the smell stayed in my hair for days..you are supposed to used it before washing your hair ..the first time I used it like a regular hair mask and applied it to my hair after wash..but still worked and made my hair so soft and easy to manage. smells like jasmine and herbals..

Soft Coeur "massage bar"
every time I use this massage bar I have to try hard not to eat it!..yes, it smells so delicious like vanilla,honey and chocolate..yummm

new stuff...

Mask of Magnaminty
wow!...all I can say is this stuff will clear up your skin and make you face feels bright and fresh..you can also use it on your body..smells like herbal and mint ..not the best smell but works great..I highly recommend it..

Phoenix Rising "Bath Bomb"

I haven't used this one yet..it has gold glitter and smells like berries and spices..I can't wait to try it..
Sultana Soap
another amazing soap..smells like raisins and cream..it lather very well and it's very soft
well that was all..hope you enjoyed it and had a bit of an idea about these products
take care now and have a lovely day..
