WORST OF ESSENCE COSMETICS

[@yairethcastro71596]

Mascara didn’t work for me it flakes every single time and stains my under eyes 😫

[@real-555]

Me too! Why does it seem that everyone raves about them? What am I missing?

[@anh7807]

It does the sme to me. Went through 2 tubes but nice lashes arent worth raccoon eyes.

[@Shaikha21x.]

Try the other ones. (Avoid lash princess line)

[@BIggy1989]

Don’t apply thick coats that’s what I dealt with but don’t blink when you apply do it very soft then you will get the false lash look(If you get the green one which In my opinion is the best one)

[@nailsbyevelyn21]

I cant use any mascara thats not water proof so maybe the water proof would be better

[@tyrannosaurus_lex8135]

I personally hate their mascara, no matter what I do it also gives me panda eyes within an hour, clumps on my lashes and doesn’t do anything for me and I have very short lashes

[@anonmous4468]

The only cheap mascara I will ever trust is great lash mascara from maybelline tbh

[@micaelaprime1044]

Same! they all smudge everywhere on me! I loved Volume stylist 18h extension lash but sadly it did flake and smudge a little but no where near as bad as lash princess did.. I tried the bye bye panda eyes and it wasn't bad but it just gave me no volume or length and I have pretty long natural lashes.. I stick to Maybelline lash sensational.

[@noorulhudaahmed3695]

try the bye bye panda eyes mascara from them I love that one

[@goldenhourss]

@@micaelaprime1044same it really makes me look like a panda

[@Aesthetic_kiwi77]

I buy an eyelash separator it removes the clumps and makes it not drip hope this helps ❤

[@valleria483]

Maybe they have a different formula in the US. The European lash princess is really good and doesn't smudge or flake at all

I completely agree. I live in Italy and I can assure you it's the best mascara I have ever used❤

The Essence liquid liner with the brush, no the one you grabbed, is the best! Super pigmented and it lasts all day. I use it daily😄

Their Super Precise Eyeliner is my go to. I haven't tried any of their others but I've never had a watery one of this specific one from them! And it's also $3.99. I've gone through so many of them

[@mariaioan661]

Their 8h Matte liquid lipsticks are not as dry as you described them, Morgan. I actually find them to be more comfortable than the old KVD liquid lipstick formula. I also think this formula is miles better in comparison to the previous one.

[@cynthiagarcia6777]

❤That’s right 😊👏👏

[@JaxDianne]

Those eyeshadow palettes are some of my favorites from the drugstore. I have like 5.

[@stereotypea123]

They are so good. I have bronze and coral and the shadows are buttery soft both matte and shimmer, and I have no issues with the pigment.

The Essence liquid ink is good! It’s a brush tip with a blue cap

I love the mascara except I buy the waterproof one it’s awesome. I like the eyeshadows are the the best no, but for the price point I think they are decent.

[@saltyocean918]

Everyone was raving about the lash princess mascara so I got it, I don’t like it at all it’s so flaky and does nothing for my lashes

[@LauraDyehouse]

I actually love the silver palette it's really solid!

[@swesttttt]

I have 3 of those lil 6 pan palettes and I think they rock. Plus a mice mirror makes them a no-brainer for travel!

[@xo.Marina]

OK! hear me out. The liners are EXTREMELY watery and smear before they dry. They are like those childhood watercolor paint palettes that we got in kindergarten but tbh…the brown one is AMAZING for fake freckles. Just put little dots around ur face and it works perfectly!!!

[@antoniaschneider7839]

I like the brown liner as liner too, I like how sheer and soft it is (that doesn't work with black liner tho, the black one sucks ^^)

[@Hamsterlover161]

I like the liquid liner! I even bought a replacement so you know it's good. What was bad was the elf one I got, only 4 good uses

[@ES-fc9cy]

[@kloeisommerville1641]

I personally love their eyeshadow palettes, if you get the right one, then it’s so worth your money

[@jazika714]

I think their brown eyeliner is very good! I use it everyday, but I kinda prefer eyeliner to be watery as it's easier to correct and doesn't smudge

[@alexandra109]

I personally love the 6 pan eyeshadow palettes. The purple was a miss for me, but the blue and green were great especially for $4. I’ve already repurchased the blue since I totally used up 2 shades.

[@cynthiagarcia6777]

❤❤👏👏👏🙋🏻‍♀️ I agree!

[@fitp2183]

the 24 ink eyeliner is great!

[@izzie9526]

The waterproof lash princess mascara, any of their lip care/balms (the caring tint with grapefruit is the best), the lip liners, and the glosses are where it's at. They also have great eyeshadow brushes.

[@no1luvsjazxd]

Personally, I dont like the mint green lash princess mascara. i dont like dry, clumpy, and thick mascaras that dont seperate your lashes. And this one did EXACTLY that. It also gives you panda eyes, and the wand is really weird. I would reccomend the I❤EXTREME Crazy Volume Mascara instead

[@bookbutterfly2408]

Essence's mascaras burns my eyes for some reason. I never have this problem with Covergirl, Clinique, & Benefit's mascara tbh

[@tindalcook1581]

Can you try out the Essense color changing lip and cheek oil? I have it and really love it but would love to get a professionals opinion. :)

[@Pcb.cecily]

Personally, I think that is cool, but it doesn’t smell good in my opinion😅

[@coolabs1238]

I have that and I love it! It smells so good and it has good pigmentation!😀

[@votepurple]

I tried the cranberry one and i have never used a product so fast! I think they have discontinued it now, but I’ll be interested to try the new version

[@katiehenry7]

If you love it then I wouldn't care what other beauty influencers has to say about it. Morgan very rarely likes drugstore stuff. On the rare occasion she even tries something from the drugstore... she normally dislikes it. I hate to see her picking on essence and catrice as much as she does ( when she talks about cheap makeup) By the way... those cheep 6 pan eyeshadow palettes are good... especially for being $ 3.99. Not all of us can afford 100 Tom Ford quads. Lol

[@kennedycarey]

Okay for the people saying the lash princess is clumpy DO NOT GET THE MINT GREEN the purple and the waterproof are the only way to get for these onesssss

[@saijanaswamy7210]

I disagree. I have one of their smaller eyeshadow palettes. They're worth every penny. Folks when u gotta dress up or wear makeup for work but you are dead broke..this brand is great. So cheap and they're decent, cruelty free

Thank you for clarifying the difference between the Essence liner and mascara 💚

[@CatMcCloud]

I love their pencil liners though, they always work for me and they’re so affordable! But their packaging for their powder products is the actual worst lol And the Princess mascara didn’t work for me!

[@jkschnik6952]

The mascara looks good when first applied, but flakes during the time it’s on your lashes.

Lash princess flakes on me, the small palettes are so good, buttery soft shadows.

I've been using the Lash Princess mascara in waterproof since 2019(?) but they must have changed the formula last year or so bc all of a sudden it's flaking like crazy and giving me panda eyes...

[@ambrr_lily]

I had that experience from the start. I'm half-convinced it goes bad quickly. The reviews are either great or terrible. But it was honestly the worst mascara for me. Dry, flaky, clumpy. I think some people must get something totally different, or maybe fresher.

[@j.daemin]

@@ambrr_lily anything is possible. Since Essence's popularity boomed I think the quality dropped massively...

[@APixieNinja]

Not everyone will have the same experience with a product, so I recommend trying something if you're interested in it. Find a tester, a friend with that product, something! But test it first before just writing it off. If I had listened to "influencers" about products, I wouldn't have ANY make-up.

I like the mascara but I don’t know about it being the best…I like that it’s affordable but I’ve tried better mascaras..just my thoughts🤷‍♀️

I really like the “Pretty In Pink” plumping lip gloss by Essence. I bought it for my mom because she likes the Pretty In Pink movie. It’s a decent amount of plumping, it’s not a super loud color (it looks like it, but it’s not on the lips!), and it’s very affordable! I believe it was $3.99 or so

[@thot5946]

ironically i like their waterproof eyeliner pencils more than the waterproof liquid liners, for some reason the pencils are more waterproof despite the color payoff being weaker (as you'd expect from pencils) kinda wish they had those little gel liner pots tho, they could be a nice middle ground between water resistance and color payoff

[@traceymarshall5886]

Im surprised about the liner as i thought Essence is a German pharmacy brand (which is sold in Primark / Penneys in Ireland) and I worked in research for cosmetics company (Cover girl, Max Factor) and all our liquid liners and pencils were made by Faber Castell German pencil company. Every cosmetics company uses this pencil company to make their liners...so im surprised!!!!

Everyone talks about the mascara so for a secret Santa last year my friend bought me all their mascaras cause they used to be like 3 dollars and I can say they are all the same they fall under your eyes and the waterproof one is bad too it comes right off in chlorine water or salt

[@nicoledijkstra7168]

I personally think essence can have hit or miss products. One type of liquid eyeliner can be not so good but other one be very good. And this is also with every other categorie because I used a lot of essence in my mere 24 years of life. Have hated some products and loved others and sometimes even in the same categorie
