Essence Party Makeup Swatches & Review
Although its going to be Christmas very soon but a party look is needed throughout the year. My today’s post is how to create the perfect party look on a budget.
First of all, I never used essence makeup before so this was my first time with the brand. I also want to say that before using these products I never knew what price range these products fell under.
I was off to the launch of Nordic Bakery in Covent Garden and thought to give this collection a try. So as per my habit of doing my makeup on the train, I put it all in my makeup bag.
Yes, as funny as it may sound, TFL rail was the first place where I tried these products.
Here’s how I created this look: Essence Party Makeup Swatches & Review
- I moisturised my skin with Bryt Day Cream.
- Using a Sedona Lace stippling brush, I applied MAC NC35 foundation all over my face, eye lids and neck.
- Next I contoured my eyes with Urban Decay naked palette, using a light brown shade on my eye lids, black in the crease and a highlighter to the brow bone.
- I then lined my eyes with an Eyeko fat eye liner.
- I used Rodial black gel eye pencil on the waterline
- I then used an essence mascara on my eye lashes.
- For my eyebrows I used benefit goof proof brow pencil.
- On The cheeks I used Seventeen Contour Kit to highlight and contour my cheeks.
- I used the Essence Mosaic Blush 20, on the apples of my cheeks.
- I used Sheer & Shine Lipstick on my lips and lines them with Essence 6 a girl’s dream.
My Thoughts On Essence Party Makeup: Essence Party Makeup Swatches & Review
After using these products, I could not tell how much they cost. I certainly thought they were over £6 each because the quality is so good. Trust me, these are all well under £3. Boy am I impressed!
Blush: The essence mosaic blush 20 is just perfect. I love peach toned blushes on my skin tone. They look very subtle and summery. Don’t be afraid to layer this blush up for perfect photos on your party.
Mascara: Now, this must be the biggest bristles I’ve seen on a mascara. It literally does what it says on the tin. It gives great volume to the lashes. For perfect party lashes, don’t forget to curl your lashes with a lash curler first.
Lipstick: I will admit, when I applied this lipstick I was disappointed. I’m not fan of tinted-balm-like lipsticks. I love rich lipsticks.
But after a while when I checked myself in the mirror, I totally loved it. Its perfect for party makeup when you want your lips to look shiny and sultry.
Nail Polish: The essence nail polish is one more thing that did not fail to impress me. It is a great gel nail polish, just parallel to any other expensive drug store nail polish.
Yes, I messed it up a little bit in the picture below, but its of a perfect quality.
Lip Liner: The Essence lip liner is very rich and a great shade of pink. Its retractable and perfect for travelling.
