Just...kidding. I honestly have a love/hate relationship with the beibs.
However, I just couldn't pass up on these newly released edition from one of my favourite brands Essence featuring the boy/man himself.
Would you look at that?!

I headed to the Priceline at Parramatta Westfields last week to find a freshly set up stand and picked up the following items:
(Left to right: 01 Groupie At Heart blush, 03 As Long As You Love Me eyeshadow, 01 Groupie At Heart and 03 I'm Backstage lipglosses)
Essence 01 Groupie At Heart blush ($4.25 AUD)
This has got to be one of my favourite products Essence has brought out. I love the embossed "boyfriend" all over the blush - looks really pretty in real life. The colour is of a rose-pink which at first I thought was matte but when swatched, there is a really flattering associated silver sheen. The texture is so velvety soft and pigmentation is surprisingly good for such a cheap product. This blush is much more superior to the blushes previously released from Essence. Perfect for "beliebers" and those seeking that natural flushed cheeks easily acquire after singing your lungs out at a concert (e.g. a Justin Bieber concert!). I highly recommend this blush - it'll make a lovely stocking filler too!
Essence 03 As Long As You Love Me eyeshadow ($2.85 AUD)
Would you look at that price? Cheaper than your cup of coffee.
This eyeshadow was not as velvet and pigmented as the blush but it comes close and is certainly buildable. I actually think the sheerness of it is perfect for younger girls! It's not chalky like other cheap eyeshadows. This eyeshadow does have a bit of fall out, nevertheless, it's another great stocking filler!
Essence 01 Groupie At Heart lipgloss ($3.50 AUD)
A gorgeous pinkish-red with a hint of coral that is perfect for summer. These are like the Essence Stay With Me lipglosses (mentioned here) which have great pigmentation and leaves a subtle stain on the lips. I love these lipglosses; very excited to see these on display.
Essence 03 I'm Backstage lipgloss ($3.50 AUD)
What a strange colour for a lipgloss! (one of the reasons why I purchased it). This gloss is like the former yet it comes out clear with a slight glittery blue tinge. Bored of your average clear gloss? Try this one instead!

That blush looks so very promising! I can't say I love the idea of a blue/green gloss but it certainly is different!

It sure does! I can't wait to wear it in the cooler months! I feel the same about that gloss haha :)
DeleteI'm really not a fan of him - to be honest I reaallly dislike him, haha, but this collection looks pretty good and I love Essence! That blush looks super pretty but I already have way too many! I really love Essence blushes!
