Review: Essence Metal glam blush

essence-metal-glam-blush
I bought this blush yesterday.  It contains 0.84 fl.oz/25ml of the product. It comes in a tube, which I like. The opening is protected with a foil, so you can be sure to get completelly new product(which is a big plus, since people here tend to test everything!).
The blush itself is lovely orange-peachy colour with gold shimmer. You have to be very carefull not to put too much of it, since it can be build up really well. It can be blend very easily and it is quite resistant.

I really like it and I know I will be wearing it a lot!

And the ingredientes:

Review: Essence Love letters stampy set and stamping nail polish


I recently came across Essence Love letters limited edition. Most of the stuff just weren't for me - maybe I'll go back for one polish - but I took the stamping plate and stamping nail polish #05 Inkheart.

The polish is dark grey creme. I expected it to be more opaque and thick, but it is really not that much - if you'd use it as a normal polish, you'd need two coats for it to look opaque. It dries semi matte. And it dries quick. It is a bit difficult to apply because of brush strokes. 

The stamping set includes 1 stamp, 1 scraper and 1 image plate with 9 designs. 

I won't use the scraper, becase it is made of metal, and it can damage the image plate. 

The designs are mostly conected to love, so it is a perfect image plate for Valentine's day. You have hearts, love, cupid and butterfly. The image plate is covered with protective transparent foil, which you have to remove prior to use - but they have this written on it, so there's no worries if you removed it or not. My plate has this weird dots on it, and when I tried, they are carved into the plate as well as the images - maybe I just picked up a bad one, I don't know. I will contact the reseller and let you know. 

Unfortunatelly not even my stamper is okay. It appears to have a cut right in the middle of it.

I tried all the designs and I'm happy with it. You have to understand that I didn't really try with this, I just quickly tried them. I tried all of them with Inkheart, and I am satisfied with how well it works. Because of its not-so-great opacity I thought it wouldn't work, but it does!
I left the hearth on the first picture this way on purpose, so you can see what the cut on the stamper does to a design. It's a shame really, designs are lovely and if you are into stamping, I say get it, it doesn't cost that much.
