Essence Wake Up, Spring! TE
torek, marec 01, 2016
Like every year Essence designed a spring inspired collection with mostly pastel shades, pinks and peaches. I got a few bits to try out before it reached our shops and I've had these for about a month, but I hear this collection just launched here (ni še na Click2Chic, ampak kolikor vem bo) and it should be available though March and April. I got the peachy blush in 01 hello sunshine!, white eyeliner pen in 02 let's the spring begin and a lipstick pen 02 bye-bye winter! You can see all the products that will be available below and you see an overview of the collection with some swatches here (video is in German). By the way, the nude eyeliner looks very similar to the recently discontinued Big Bright Eyes pencil, so if you missed it, here is a chance to get a similar one.
Eyeliner pen 02 let's the spring begin
There are three colours in the spring collection, aside from this white one also a pastel violet and mint green. Simona posted swatches and her first impressions of all three here. These are felt tip eyeliners with the same design of the nib as their waterproof version, which is a decent shape, but it doesn't make it easy to draw super thin lines. When I first swatched this one on the back of my hand, I was very pleasantly surprised by the staying power as it lasted all day on the skin, it also was intense enough, but on the eyes I had to layer it to get the colour going. It's not an intense, completely white liquid colour on the eyes, it's more of a chalk like effect. It tends to transfer to the crease despite using powder under it. I would suggest using a white eyeshadow over it to set it.

Blush 01 hello sunshine!
01 hello sunshine! is a classic peach blush with a highlighter-y finish. It has finely milled pink shimmer that gives it the cutest glow. It's on the sheer side, but with layering you can build up the colour just fine and it blends well, which isn't always the case at Essence blushes. The packaging is versatile and it mimics the design of Physicians Formula powder products, since it similarly has an additional compartment underneath and a mirror. There is also a cute sign saying blush up & smile.

lipstick pen 02 bye-bye winter!
02 bye-bye winter! is a basic light neutral pink, very wearable and classically pretty. The quality is surprisingly good. It's opaque with a creamy finish and it contains a lot of wax to make it stick on better, but you don't feel that weird waxy layer on the lips. Due to such formula it completely survived meals and drinking several times, which is very impressive. It's a classic crayon pencil that needs to be sharpened and not a twist-up, which is shame, but for the price, it's fine. I think this is the stand out in this collection and worth picking up if you like such products

Joj, ta kolekcija mi je tok lepa, sem kao no buy, sam očitno bo šlo par stvari z mano! :P super swatch, mi je dotenek ful všeč!
OdgovoriIzbrišiKjut je, ja :) Ampak me te kolekcije še vedno ne pritegnejo. Hvala :)
IzbrišiKok maš ti vedno tooook lepe slikeee! <3
OdgovoriIzbrišiHvala <3 <3
Izbrišiwhy the essence of all the Polish news will not make ? And so I wanted the crayons
OdgovoriIzbrišiHm, ne vem, če sem edina, ki je ta kolekcija ne pritegne preveč.. Razen belega eyelinerja, ki ga iščem že milijon let. Upam, da še ga dobim, hihi. xx
OdgovoriIzbrišiNisi edina ;) Kolekcija je šele ta vikend prišla na police, pa bo povsod še v naslednjih dveh mesecih, tako da skoraj ne dvomim da boš dobila. Če ne pa spremljaj C2C kdaj bodo imeli.
IzbrišiJaz sem danes vzela vse eyelinerje, ker so se mi zdeli zanimivi odtenki. Doma sem ugotovila, da se lila najslabše maže, ostala dva sta pa dobra. Vsekakor bo za kakšno ustvarjanje. Bel eyeliner je skoraj nemogoče najti :). Blush mi je tudi bil všeč, sploh ta tvoj odtenek, ampak res ne rabim še en peach blush :D. Šminka zgleda luškano, punčkasto. :) Žal ni mojega odtenka, ki bi me pritegnil.
OdgovoriIzbrišiDrugih stvari sploh še nisem videla v živo, ponavadi te kolekcije vse zamudim. Ta eyeliner mene nekako ni prepričal, drugi dve stvari so mi pa kul :) Blush bi ti bil všeč tudi zato ker je glowy, ampak, ne, res ne rabiš še enega :D A ni drugi odtenek šminke peachy? Na tistem videu od Essence mi tako izgleda.
IzbrišiMeni se zdi, da sta oba roza, ampak nisem ziher. Sem na hitrco pogledala. Me ne privlačijo ti svinčniki preveč, pa sem očinto kar avtomatski odpikala :D.
IzbrišiMeni tudi ti svinčniki za šilit niso najljubši. Jih ponavadi tudi ne gledam :)
IzbrišiJaz sem tudi danes ta blush vzela, jutri se pa vrnem po šminko, na tebi res lepo izgleda <3
OdgovoriIzbrišiŠminka je res presenetljivo dobre kvalitete :) Me zanima, če je mogoče enaka kot so ti novi Glossy Sticks. Pa hvala :)
IzbrišiBeauty photo! Kiss)

Thank you :)
IzbrišiZa tale blush sem imela visoka pričakovanja in na tvojih slikicah izgleda prečudovito, obožujem breskove odtenke na ličkih (predvidevam, da imaš tale blush na slikici z belim eyelinerjem). Mi je pa tudi tale šminka prijetno presenetila, upam da do sobote še ostaneta zame
OdgovoriIzbrišiJa seveda, na tisti sliki so uporabljeni vsi izdelki iz te objave :) Glow mi je všeč pri tem blushu, res naredi taka zdravo sijoča lička :) Šminka je tudi presenetljivo dobra.
IzbrišiTa blush mi je preveč peachy, bom pa verjetno šla pogledat za šminko, je res lep odtenek :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiMe sva itak bolj za odtenke a la Nuts About You :D Šminke je dobra, ampak meni je kar malo boring odtenek, je pa kar kjut :)
IzbrišiOh, tale šminka pa res izgleda prelepa :) <3
OdgovoriIzbrišiBel eyeliner me pa definitivno ne prepriča :D
Mene tudi eyeliner žal ni prepričal. Tako lepo se je swatchal na roki, ampak na očeh ni bilo isto, pa še hitro se je odtisnil v gubo.
IzbrišiAh, this pen lipstick *.*, looks so nice on you. I like these shades :) Kristina
OdgovoriIzbrišiThank you :) The lipstick seems to be everyone's favourite :)
IzbrišiHvala za omembo <3 Meni pa bel eyeliner ni tako slab, ampak je definitivno manj obstojen kot druga dva. Bom pa še uporabila trik z senčilom...Seveda morem pa še vse dodobra preizkusit ! Šminko sem pa jaz vzela v drugem odtenku, ker je ta bila zame preveč roza :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiNi zakaj :) Tvoja objava me je spomnila, da šparam mojo že par tednov :) Sem šla danes pogledat v naš Müller, pa še ni te kolekcije, tako da mi še ni uspelo videt vseh odtenkov.
IzbrišiThe blush shade is gorgeous. Perfect for summer.
OdgovoriIzbrišiYes, a classic spring/summer shade :)
IzbrišiThe lip color immediately grabbed my attention, very pretty shade!
OdgovoriIzbrišiAnd the quality is pretty impressive for Essence :)
IzbrišiŠkoda, sem res upala da bo eyeliner (bel) kaj bolj pigmentiran. :(
OdgovoriIzbrišiJa, na očeh se pri meni žal ne obnese najbolje :/ Ampak Simona pravi, da ji je ok, le da je manj obstojen kot drugi.
