I have always been a fan of Essence's Longlasting Eye liner. It's perfect and I love it. I also happen to like their eye pencil from the 'longlasting' range.
Today, I'm reviewing two of their products, one of them is Lipliner and the other one is 3D eyeshadow.
Essence doesn't really have a variety of lip-liners just the basics i.e. red, nude and one other color. I love me some red lipsticks so of course lip lining is a must. So I bought the Essence Longlasting lipliner in '01 Ready for Red'.
I love LORAC PRO palette for its shimmers rather than mattes. But in my opinion, it's missing one shade i.e. Silver-y. So, I wanted something shimmery but in budget. >.<
So I got the Essence's 3D Eyeshadow in '05 irresistible first love'
Here's what they look like:

And OMG! the difference a lip liner can make in overall lipstick game is 'huge'. Lip liner basically even outs the shape of your lips and gives you a better idea when you apply the actual lipstick, Essence's lipliner is really good. You don't have to sharpen it. Just twist it and line your lips!
As far as the 3D eyeshadow, it is not from the 'longlasting' range. It comes in dinky little plastic packaging with two eyeshadows.
It lasted on me 6 good hours! It says on it that 'apply wet for an even more intense effect. I prefer it applying wet with fingers rather than a wet eye-shadow brush. I used water and another time I used makeup setting spray. With water, it applied smoothly and lasted longer.
here's what they look like on me:

Price:
I got lipliner for $2 and eyeshadow duo for $4.50
Where to buy:
Al-Fatah or anywhere online/stores.
That's it for today! I hope you like it!
