Other than the price of this product, I am also really impressed with the high performance!
The formula is really nice, it is not runny nor is it too dry. It applies and spreads quite easily, but it sets quite fast. I am not a fan of the doe foot applicator as it is a breeding ground for bacteria. Your fingers work best for blending out this product.
It cancels out veins / uneven skin tone pretty well, but it does emphasize texture. Really blending your shadows onto the product helps to even out the texture a little bit.
It does make your shadows more pigmented and last longer throughout the day, which is what it claims to do and for these reasons, I am very happy with the results.
I have never really used a base until I saw this product and decided to try it out.
Its got a sweet short tube/ wand packaging which looks almost like a lip-gloss. The wand makes for easy application but I find myself still using my finger to blend and spread the product evenly.
Once applied it dries quite fast to leave you with a all even base color on which to build your masterpiece. I have to admit when I want to do extreme eye looks I just cant go without this anymore.
You can never complain about the prices when it comes to essence products. I believe you get more than what you pay for. The only reason I gave it 4 for quality and effectiveness is because it doesn't last for the entire day. It does last a few hours though.
I don't usually use an eyeshadow base, but decided to give this one a go as it was on sale at Clicks. It's not bad at all. It creates a smooth base for my eyeshadow and my shadow did last a bit longer. I add this product to my routine on special occasions.
I was pleasantly surprised by this little bottle. Very simply packaged (like most lipglosses) with a sponge applicator, the creamy base goes on smoothly and blends easily. I used it on top of my eyelids to cover those little veins shining through before applying my eye shadow, and the coverage was amazing. I found it equally effective in the nose area for removing the red tinge next to your nostrils. I apply the base with the applicator and tap it in, until it evens out nicely. I found my eye-shadow stayed on really well with no lines forming in the crease as so often happens in hot weather. I have subsequently used it as a concealer under my foundation and find it really effective - give it a try, you won't be sorry. Best of all, it's really cheap. I would recommend this to everyone.
