I just love Essence products and this baby is no different, I love creating smokey eyes and this little kit is a must have for creating that look. It's super affordable and I like the fact that it lasts for quite some time..

Would I repurchase this product?? I sure would

I'm a big fan of the smokey eye look and when I came across this product, I had to try it out ! The colours are dramatic and bold and I love it. Even though the brushes included are not so nice , the cream liner and the powdered eyeshadow are amazing.

I must admit I didn't read the label properly and I got a bit of a surprise when I realized that one half is a cream... I am not fond of creamy eyeshadows, so I give that half a skip. But I do like the nice shade of chocolate brown of the powder. It is a rather dark shade, which I can use as accent for other lighter colours.

This compact is a 2 in 1. It comes with a cream liner in one pan and some powder eyeshadow in another. It also contains a double sided brush - with a sponge applicator on one side (for the eyeshadow) and a liner brush on the other (for the creamy liner). I will say it straight - I don't like the brush. In my opinion it is uneven and doesn't provide good application. I use my Essence gel liner brush instead and it works great to apply a thin even line. The colour of the cream liner comes out dark brown - it looks nice for a more natural look instead of black. The cream liner has a good lasting power and doesn't get wiped off as you try to smudge it.

The powder product is very pigmented - It is way too dark for me to use as eyeshadow - but it is great to set your cream liner with it. I basically draw a liner with the powder right over the cream liner. It smokes it out more. I cannot operate that sponge applicator for this purpose and use my MAC pencil brush instead.

I really recommend this product. You get a big quantity of each. I have had this set for a year now and it doesn't really dry out much.

bought it, love it. silky texture. it doesnt irritate at all. Stays on until you take it off, it comes off easily when you want it to. Fantastic colour.

Love it!

A very good price and I absolutely LOVE this product

I struggled to get that seductive smokey eye look until I found the perfect set from Essence. At just R49.99 this eyeliner and powder set gives you that glamorous smokey eye look in seconds.
