Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil

Hello everyone! It's been a while since I've reviewed a product and today I'm going to review the Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil in the shade Ms Moneypenny. I was searching for a nude eye pencil and chose to purchase this one. The reason being: Essence is an underrated brand in India. So let's see how this has been performing so far.

Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil: Ms Moneypenny


Packaging:
It is a retractable, colour coded pencil with details mentioned in silver.

Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil


Ingredients List:
Not mentioned.


Quantity:
0.28 gram


Price:
249 INR


Reveiw:
I initially bought Ms Moneypenny for using it on my waterline. But little did I know that it was shimmery. However, I've used it on my waterline and haven't faced any inconvenience in doing so, in terms of irritation. The colour is rose gold. It glides smoothly and is very pigmented. It is smudge proof and water proof once it dries. On my waterline it lasts for 4 hours without fading. Otherwise, if used on the lids, it stays put for 6 hours or more. I use this more often as inner corner highlighter for my eyes and also on my nose! Sounds strange, I know! But the shade looks amazing as highlighter. And as a matter of fact, I've also tried it on my cheekbone; it gives a subtle glow which looks very natural. If you ever want to try the eyeliner as a highlighter, make sure you work quickly as it settles dry pretty soon.

Swatch of Ms Moneypenny

Ms Moneypenny used on waterline


Pros:
  • Amazing shade (the range also has a good variety of colours)
  • Smudge proof and water proof
  • Very pigmented
  • Retractable form
  • Affordable
  • Colour coded packaging
  • Stays for 4-6 hours
Cons:
  • Contains fine shimmers (not ideal to use on waterline)
  • Hard to find in physical stores

Final Verdict:
4.5/5. I'm eagerly waiting to try other colours from this range as I love the formula as well as the finish.

    This eyeliner looks more apt as a inner corner highlighter!

Wet n Wild Color Icon Kohl Liner Pencil - Simma Brown Now

Packaging:   It ha s colour-coded packaging and hence brown in colour. It is a very long pencil (it might last me for a decade) that needs to be sharpened after 4-5 uses.

(Left: 1 swipe     Right: 3 swipes)   Review: Would you be in shock if I say that I use this kohl pencil as a brow pencil? I seriously do it. The texture is waxy enough to be used as a brow pencil. It isn't the smoothest kajal pencil but better than those which crumble on account of their softness. Hence, I use it

Suncros Aquagel SPF 26 Review

Hello everyone. Today I'm going to review a sunscreen which is the Suncros Aquagel Sunscreen with spf 26. Of late I am only using products that are paraben free. As most of you know, paraben is a class of compounds that are used in cosmetics as a preservative. Although parabens help to keep our makeup and skin care products bacteria free, however it is said cause hormonal disturbance in our body. Hence, I prefer to be on the safer  side. I have used sunscreens from Lakme, Lotus, Khadi, Neutrogena and they all contain paraben. The Khadi sunscreen claims to be paraben free but I don't like its texture. On much research and consultation with a dermatologist I came across Suncros sunscreen. Suncros Aquagel Spf 26 Now, Suncros has many variants of sunscreens. You can find both cream and gel formulae sunscreens. Although this one has the term "gel"  in it, but the texture is actually that of a cream.  Packaging:   The sunscreen comes in a cubical c
