Hi lovelies,
I hope you had a lovely Christmas. It’s hard to believe Christmas is done and dusted. Now we are all geared for New Year. I am having such a great and relaxing time but I just had to share this little gem with you.
The lovely folks over at Essence sent me this little eye pencil and shadow. I have it in Chocolate Brownie and it is so gorgeous and easy.
This pencil can be used as eyeliner or as a beautiful eyeshadow. It is very pigmented and applies like a dream. One stroke of the pencil and you have rich pigmented colour. If you need to go from day to night this is the perfect thing to pop into your bag.
The top line I did by holding the pencil straight and using the tip. The second one was holding it at an angle and using more of the side of the pencil. The best part, if it says “stays no matter what” it REALLY stays no matter what. I can’t describe how much I am loving this little pencil. It has been so hot and humid here lately and this little gem has worked wonders.
Essence was kind enough to send me a little hamper to give away and if you want to try out this little pencil here is your chance. There is one in the hamper. This is what the hamper consists of:
- 1 x Essence All in One BB cream in -01- Universal
- 1 x Essence All about matt fixing compact powder

Ok, of all the comps I’ve entered on your blog, I am going to win this one. I feel it in my BONES.
Because God knows I need makeup, I’m a girl who just never buys any other than the very basics. And everytime I look at the Essence polishes, I think I need make up but never end up getting any. So I’d like to try ALL THE MAKE UP THINGS FROM ESSENCE, PLEASE.

AMAZE GIVEAWAY! I am crazy for all about matt fixing compact powder. I recently decided to give this a try – and boy, I have no idea how I survived without it before. I am crazy about it!! But I am most eager to try 3D eye shadow because I am lost without eye shadow, feel it is the best way to express yourself with make-up. My favourite quad is from Essence so this is definitely a MUST TRY, for me!!
