Budget Beauty: Essence eyeliner and mascara

In Beauty by Guest WriterLeave a Comment


Essence I Love Glam powder eyeliner and I Love Extreme mascara are a great combination for a striking and easy eye make-up. The powder eye liner can also be used as an eye shadow.  I was pleasantly surprised to see the I Love Glam eyeliner applicator was so easy to use, and the I Love Extreme mascara gave me so much volume. Because the sponge applicator was so soft, and the powder came out so seamlessly it was so easy to do a straight line with the eyeliner. The eyeliner at Ulta is only $2.99. You can’t beat that price for a great eyeliner.

Before the mascara was applied

I have always purchased mascaras that gave volume over length, because I love when my eyelashes look super full. When I saw that this was called I heart Extreme – Volume mascara it was a must try, and right away. The mascara wand is a fatter wand with shorter bristles allowing it the mascara to get in between the lashes and color at the base of the eye lash. The mascara at Ulta is $3.99. I haven’t had a mascara less than $5 work as well as well as this one does. (Picture above is before, and picture below is after.)

After the mascara was applied (from the side so you could see the fullness)

The Essence price point is so great that I’m definitely going to start trying some of the other items.

I was sent the eyeliner and mascara for review. No further compensation was received. The opinion above is my own swayed only by my inner Fashionista.
