Essence Light up your face palette

Image
I usually don't write about products I dislike, but today I decided to do it. So a guess you'll have a glue now where this post will go.  I was super excited then I heard about Essence bringing out highlighter palette. Then I got it I was really disappointed. Sometimes I do buy things stupidly without swatching them and this was this case. Now tthe shades in the palette are quite similar which isn't the worse thing ever, but still I wish it would have more variety. However this isn't the main issue about it. My main issue is about the formula. First shade is most likely the best, it's sort ogfthis Hourglass type of powder. It just has some sheen to it and it would work better as finishing powder than actual highlighter, however it's too dark for me.  The middle shade looks the best for highlighting, but it's too glittery. It's just so junky shimmer in it and it's not nice. It's almost fine from the distance, but seeing it cl

I went to Palanga months and months ago, but I never got around to post the pictures. Now back in summer I was stupid enough to forgot my camera charger at home , so my camera run out of battery quite quickly and I didn't manage to get as many pictures as I hoped. I still decided to post them to have some throwback time. I absoluetly enjoyed my time there and I would do all of these beach walks again and again. Oh by the way Palanga is the beach resort in Lithuania. xxxxxx

Essence All about nudes eyeshadow palette

Image
This Essence palette came out for an ages ago and I have always had my eye on it. However I've never been a hugh fan of Essence eyeshadows - they're not pigmeneted enough and their also quite chalky.  I'm going to start up saying it's better than many other Essence shadows, but it's nothing special, just an avarage palette. I actually quite like it as everyday eyeshadow because you can really add some dimension with it, but it's difficult to go overboard. I personally got the nude one, because brown nude shades are pretty much all I wear. Also my main thing I look in palette is that it would have both -  mattes and shimmers. This one is quite good abou it, you'll have 5 satin-matte shades and 2 shimmers and one with quite junky glitter in it. They are pretty decent shadows, but they're still a little chalky. Also whilst blending them the shadow disappears a little. As I said not the most amazing, but they're still OK. Positive side about t

Essence Matt Matt Matt lipsticks

I haven't done any sort of a review type of post for an ages. I say review type because my posts really aren't the actual reviews at least in my opinion. I don't have that much of a experience in beauty community and I just like to write my opinion about different beauty products, mainly about makeup. Usually Essence brings out new products twice a year - at the end of August and in February. So Essence brought out these matte lipsticks in August 2016. I have had these two for some time, but I haven't got around to write about them. I believe they have 7 shades and I have two of them. I have to admit they are pretty good. These are actually matte lipsticks, but they aren't drying which is a hugh plus. As at the moment matte liquid lipsticks are hugh thing in a beauty community it's good to find matte lip products which aren't drying the hell out of the lips, but they still looks trendy. Now as I said it's not an actual review I meant for example
