Essence Lip-liner Review ♥

Hey guys!
Hope you are all okay!
Today's post is going to be about some lip-liners I have been loving at the moment!
Many budget lip liners i have tried have either been really hard or have not done the job intended. These however do not have those problems.

I have heard about the brand Essence from many people in the past and after trying the glow in the dark nail polish which i did a review on previously, I didn't really thing the brand was going to be any good until I picked up these liners!

I purchased two of these liners are you can see below.

The one at the top is #12 Wish me a rose. 
The one underneath is #06 Satin Mauve.

Both of these colours are ones I would never normally go for but i thought i would give them a go! I brought these from Wilkos, they were £1 each which is how much a lip pencil from MUA would cost!
These lip liners are so creamy and wonderful! When they are on your lips they wont move which I think is wonderful!

If you can get your hands on these lip liners I recommend you do so! They are amazing for the price!
 Let me know if you guys have tried these liners and what you think of them!
Hope you are having a wonderful day or night wherever in the world you are!
Take Care

Essence Nail Art - Glow in the night Top Coat ♥


Hey Guys!
Hope you are all doing well!
Today's post is going to be on a top coat i brought a couple of months back.

I had been looking for a glow in the dark topcoat or nail polish for my nail before me and Jess went to fusion. I wanted something that would glow and look amazing on the night time.
I had been looking at some of the DIY Glow in the dark nail polish tutorials on YouTube and was going to give them ago before i saw this nail polish in Wilkos.

This topcoat is from a brand called Essence. I have heard a lot of good things about this brand so i thought why not give it a go and at the small price of £1.00-£2.00 I couldn't pass it up!



I hadn't read any reviews about this product before trying or buying it but i wish i had. This nail polish is honestly terrible. It doesn't give a glow even a little one. Nothing. Its just like a semi-milky topcoat...
I know you don't really expect much for the price but i thought you would have a little of something as you can buy a simple cheap glow stick for £1 from poundland. 



You can't really tell how cloudy the polish is from this picture.
I did try and take a picture of this polish in the dark but you couldn't see anything.
After going through the experience myself i looked at reviews online. I wasn't the only one that it wasn't working for.
Many people said they has to put their polish or hand to a light source like a bulb to bring out the tiny specs of fluorescent-ness (I have no idea what they are called)
I did try what they suggested and it work for about a minute before it faded into nothing again. It was that short i didn't have enough time to grab my phone and attempted to take a picture.
Let me know what you guys think of this product if you have it and if you know of any good glow in the dark nail polishes or topcoats on the market!
Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed it!
Take Care
