The lipstick packaging is really nice and simple with the colour going around the middle and of course the little sticker on the bottom. The actual tube is matte black which is really nice as it makes it look more expensive than it is. On the actual lipstick it has the E logo embossed into it and also has the same logo on the top of the packaging which again is a really nice touch as it makes it look a bit more special. What really annoys me about lipsticks is when the lid doesn't click on securely enough, but that's not the case with this one. It clicks on really securely and I don't think it will fall of in my bag. 

The packaging for the lipliner is pretty standard. It's a pencil. Some other lipliners like MUA come with sharpeners on the lid but unfortunately this one doesn't, but I'm sure I'll survive without.

I LOVE the colour of the lipstick! I has no shimmer/glitter in it which is the only lipstick I really wear, it's the perfect berry colour for autumn/winter, and the formula just glides straight on. It doesn't last a particularly long time so it will need topping up every now and then, but it doesn't leave your lips looking bitty when it does fade. If anything it leaves a light stain which is great. 

The lipliner is again nice and soft and well pigmented. It's not quite the true red shade I was looking for, but it's in fact almost the same colour as the lipstick! These would pair really well together, either just to line the lips or to make the lipstick last longer you could fill in your lips with the liner then go over with the lipstick. Overall, amazing products for a great price!

I'll definitely be looking at some of the other essence products and the other colours they have in their lipstick range!

Have you tried Essence?

Thanking you,

Hey everyone! I am Katie from Katie's

View and Naomi has allowed me to guest post! I am going to

do a budget makeup look with products that I think should be hyped

more! Here are the products I will be using!

Penneys/Primark Eyelash Curler

Natural Collection Coverup Cream

Essence Eyeshadow in olive garden

Catrice Matt Bronzing Powder

NYC Sky Rise Lengthening Mascara

ChitChat Cream Eyeshadow

Ok so firstly I used my concealer once again as a primer on the lid

and under my eye. Then I applied the bronzer all over my lid. Next I

put the essence eyeshadow in my crease and applied the black cream

eyeshadow to the outer corner. I blended everything in. I curled my

lashes and applied mascara. I think that the concealer is great as it

makes your makeup last longer and it helps when washing it off. For

the lips you could just use a lip balm! Thanks again to Naoimi for
