I recently Hauled some new products from the Fall range of Essence Cosmetics. After trying them out for about 2 weeks I am reviewing 1 of the Eye pencils I purchased then.
Essence Extreme Long-lasting eye pencil in 04 nighttime in the jungle
Gel eye pencils are one of my most favorite tools for enhancing the eyes. I am still not a pro at handling liquid eye liners. So, this is where these eye pencils come in handy 🙂
I purchased this particular shade of eye pencil with a couple of others. Read on to find my thoughts on this.
PACKAGING
The eye pencil comes in a standard pencil packaging. It comes with a secure cap on top. The pencil needs sharpening up as it is not a retractable  pencil.
SHADE
The name of the shade is 04 nighttime in the jungle. It is a deep black/grey color with very tiny  flecks of gold shimmer in it.
WEIGHT
0.04 OZ/1.3 g
COMPANY CLAIM
The company claims this pencil to be extreme long-lasting, easy glide, water-proof and ultra smooth for instant color impact.
MY THOUGHTS
I am super impressed with this eye pencil. It lives up to its claim of being easy glide, long-lasting and yes water proof too. To test it out I applied this over Garnier BB cream and also without any foundation and just on its own. Both times the results were same. It stayed on my eyes till I wiped off my make-up with wipes.
The best part is that it doesn’t crease, transfer or even smudge. Once it sets, it simply doesn’t budge. The water-proof claim is also pretty solid. Even after washing your face the eye pencil is there 🙂
FORMULA
It is pure matt gel formula with tiny flecks of glitter. The good thing is that the glitter isn’t chunky and is very fine. It enhances the whole look of the eye.
PRICE/AVAILIBILITY
It retails for Rs. 330/
You can purchase this from all leading Supermarkets like Naheed, Imtiaz and Chase.
PROS

CONS
NONE
This is an excellent eye pencil to try out. For women who don’t want to re apply their eye pencils/kajals, this product is excellent.
Until next time
