This is a makeup brand I recommend for students because we go to university every day, and we need affordable but yet good quality makeup.

[@anyone1111]

Yess! I’m in college and because essence is such an AMAZING good quality makeup brand, yet is cheap as heck, I would absolutely recommend it 1000%.

[@pettylilthing]

As a college student all I use is dollar tree makeup and beauty supply store makeup 😂. It helps that all I use is lipglosses, blush, and mascara and sometimes eyebrow pencil

[@carolina._.00]

Its definitely great quality!!

[@kimmy4714]

​@pettylilthing YES!! Girl, I absolutely love your choices (whether or not it's due to financial necessity or purely down to your personal choice for a much more preferred method for no.1. Using less make-up products means a faster make-up application (so beneficial for the time poor female who's always (albeit who's always trying so hard to be)running late - sooo personally relatable 🫣😳 for me) no.2. Less product can often almost always result overall in make-up application that is more 'natural looking' due to focusing on a make-up application that results in 'highlighting' a favourite/particular facial feature, such as instead of blurring out those gorgeous almond shaped eyes with shades of eyeshadow combined with a heavy eye-liner, instead, by applying with a careful & steady hand, in conjunction with using the magnified side of a face mirror it can actually result in bringing attention & the focus on such gorgeous features, or she might have been instead blessed with 'bee-stung' full lips 💋 naturally awash in a colour that's of a deep blush pink or a more flushed red, by turning attention to defining that stunning shape & colour that comes from having naturally full lips. All that's needed to hone in attention directing eyes down toward such a striking feature, an essential steady hand is required to get the best on point use from applying only that of a lip pencil, rather than using both lipstick & pencil together make more of a statement by highlighting the shape & colour longevity of full-lips by lining & defining colour to the natural lip-line, then using only lip pencil to colour in & contrast lips natural colour, by shading colour heavier beginning from the outer sides of lips working towards middle with a lighter hand, using little fingertip, rub/smudge out centre of fully coloured bottom lip, highlight a pout to resemble that 'bee-stung' pout by using the guide of lips natural line focus mainly on pencilling in & shading outwards, concentrating on bottom lip, with a steady yet relaxed hand, this is to ensure accuracy & flow of lip pencil when lining lips. Position lip-pencil in between fingers making sure a firm grip, fitting comfortably between fingers, fingertips gripping pencil should be gentle yet firm, allowing for accuracy, & to assist with the appearance of a flowing fine line. To maintain an accurate prescision of the lining & shaping of lips, making sure to sharpen the lip-pencil at the beginning of each use (hygiene purposes) this will assist in a more precise accurate guide when following along the natural lip-line. Following these tips will make it hard to go wrong, & a whole lot easier to apply make-up. Instead of wearing a face of full-coverage foundation, try using your fake tan mit instead, at the end of applying your fake tan to your body finish off by swiping the fake tan mitt over your entire face by using whatever tan is left on your mitt after sweeping over your body, leaving your face with a golden healthy glow, while avoiding using foundation each morning then once a week you can do an easy 'top up' on your face when you do your routine weekly fake body tan, no need worry about blending foundation, or attempting the matching of foundation shade to that of the rest of your body - total natural look! Any other ideas let me know & hopefully I'll come up with a solution.

i used to buy it as well and I love it till this day

Their lip stains are excellent too in shade range and application. It’s a nice hybrid between the Fenty Beauty poutsicle and rare beauty stain lip oil. Definitely recommend it.

I use essence staining lip oil literally all the time! love it so much

[@_axyss]

Also: 1. "Pretty natural" (sheer coverage, satin finish) and "Fresh & fit" (medium coverage, satin finish) are really good foundations, specially for the price (they're less than $8). 2. Their pencil sharpener is amazing, it doesn't break the tip of the product. 3. For liquid eyeliner, go for the waterproof version of the "Liquid ink" one and apply a thin layer so it doesn't crack; it's precise, long lasting and very matte, and it doesn't dry out or go bad for months, unlike other ones they have. 4. "Make me brow" is a good alternative to the "Gimme me brow" by Benefit. 5. Their brushes and sponges are really good for the price (the bristles are soft and don't fall apart). 6. Their lip mask ("Lip care booster") works nicely. 7. The small blushes they have ("The Blush") are good quality as well.

[@lextorres1919]

Do you have any recommendations for a concealer for dry under eyes? I can't seem to find one that doesn't look cakey on me

[@evilmojo9447]

⁠@@lextorres1919 I’m sorry for commenting this on an essence affordable video but just in case, the Lancôme concealer is amazing. It looks very natural and dewey even on days my eyes are dry and it doesn’t crease at all, but it’s still good coverage. Usually I would never pay $29 for any makeup but it’s sooo worth it if you’re able to - it lasts a while too 🙂 Also the elf hydrating concealer is good too if you haven’t tried that yet but make sure it’s the hydrating version 😁

[@evilmojo9447]

@@lextorres1919 Also you can use vaseline as a primer and it covers any dryness on the skin, Marilyn Monroe used to do this :)

[@ardormorte]

you're so right about the brushes. literally bought my 2 first ever brushes from them (powder/blush and angled brow brush) and still use the powder one to this day after 11 years, perfect quality, nothing happened to it and it's still able to be washed down to it's real color (light lavender). lost the eyebrow brush, could never find a dupe good enough after that

[@angeldorr8]

Came here to say this!

[@angelapennington4724]

With quality like Essence, it makes me wonder how companies get away with charging so much! They just need a staple foundation or 2 that works for all skin types, maybe a soft matte and a skin tint or glowy type, with great shade range. A few more categories of phenomenal quality products and I wouldnt have to buy any other brand. Even e.l.f. is creeping up in price, but Essence has been consistent in quality and price.

[@harmonymcmullin8881]

But on the other side it can be questioned how some brands make their products so cheap to consumers, what are the ingredients going into them, where are they sourced, how are the people making them treated? Then again for all we know Charolette Tilbury is being made In the same factory as Essence and one is just a rip off 🤷🏻‍♀️ just a thought

[@anyone1111]

I think it’s packaging that companies spend a lot on and that’s why they’re so expensive. Not even the quality of the makeup, but the packaging, which is honestly🫣😬

[@SabrinaRina]

Ignorance to the option on top of the idea that quality costs money. But really the upcost allows others to advertise more and boast themselves. Can't say I've ever seen an Essence commercial.

[@missgui4400]

It’s the marketing and packaging.

That's a problem with the drugstores tho. Random people just go and open the damn shit instead of using testers. Do you know what I do? I go in, check the colors they have, see what matches me, try them on, and then order the stuff online. Prices are usually better too.

Yes, Essence deserves this love. Been using the Pure Nude highlight for years! Their matte “The Blush” blushes are phenomenal. Rival some of my high end blushes in blend-ability and staying power. They also have undertones/shades that you don’t see if a lot of affordable brands. And their blush/highlighter palette that came out last year is the same The Blush and Pure Nude formulas but in a palette. It’s perfect for travel. Their lipliners, eyeliners and liquid lipsticks are great too. Post more of these affordable roundups please!

[@Anonymously_ph]

The bullet lippies shown in the vid are my ride or die. They're surprisingly long lasting and stain the lips. That's rare for a drugstore bullet lipstick formula. The shade range is absolutely beautiful, too. ❤

Try their pink collagen lip plumper it’s not a tingle burn kind but more a over time moisture product. Replaced my Model $25+ dollar one. Just too much. Usually see them with their ph balms
