Essence smokey eyes set in brown

essence smokey eyes
When I bought this, it was S$5. Now it cost S$5.10. Yeah an increase of 10c, but it's still an increase. I used to say Silkygirl is one of the cheapest recognized brand in Singapore. But ever since Essence came to town, it took over. It is cheaper and yet it's really good. Really awesome in quality. Well I swatch them in Watsons, most of the Essence products.


Since comparing the price in Singapore and overseas, it will still be cheaper overseas, I only got this smokey eyes set. Well I got 2 sets, one brown one black.

The set came with an eye shadow and eye liner. Powder base and gel base. It also came with a small two sided applicator, which can be useful if you are using this on the go, or for some reason you do not have make up brush. The back of the package gives you directions on how to apply them.
1. Use brush to line the eyes with the eyeliner.
2. Apply powder shadow over it with the sponge. Smudge carefully.

As you can see it is pretty pigmented. It is brown so its not as harsh on the eye. It wear pretty well. Easy to apply, easy to achieve a smokey eyes. Good tool for beginners.
It can crease and doesn't last for the whole night. It started to wear off about 4 hours after use. It is good to use a primer as the color will be more vibrant, wont crease and will last longer.

Overall it is one of the things I bought in Singapore for a small amount of money but gives off such a good value. Pretty happy with Essence.

This is in the shade 201, creamy and a hint of light milky pink. I like that it is pretty, but the shade doesn't really suit me. What I like best is that they can engrave your name on the packaging. So it is pretty.

Beauty Uk Baked Blush

A red blush looks really intimidating on the box but I picked this up cause I want something different for my collection. It's just a cardboard box kind of packaging, secured with magnet, so it's really simple. It's quite big and like all baked product, it's dome in shape. So it's actually quite bulky. I wouldn't bring it for travel that's for sure. The color payoff is good, but instead of red it's more pink. You can use it sparingly and it will be lighter or you can pack on the color which will gives you a really bright pink. In fact, if lightly dust over your cheek it is more coral than pink. It has tiny specks of shimmer, but it doesn't show. I can't remember how much I bought this for but it wasn't expensive. It's not my favorite blush, but I find myself reaching for it a lot. So that's something isn't?
