The bargain £2 velvet matte stick

After a day of being a grown up and buying a new hoover, ugh. I popped into Wilkinson's for something more fun to buy.

Not knowing if it would be stationary, a new beauty tool or make up I found the Essence counter and was amazed at the prices, I thought Collection 2000 (or 'Collection' I believe it's now called) was the cheapest. But Essence is giving it a run for it's little money. But is it worth it? I thought I'd try it and find out.

Here's what I picked up..



I wanted a matte nude shade for an everyday look. I loved this one, they do the same shades in lipsticks too, but I wasn't too keen on another lipstick. I kinda like the idea of a pencil. (Though now, I think the lipstick would actually last longer)

So, here it is on..

(Subtle but a nice everyday nude/with a lil something)

My verdict
I actually love this, the colour, the finish is so spot on. And the price is insanely cheap! I'm going back for another, I'm going to give the lipstick a try next, they also do a lip gloss that is suppose to mimic the lipstick which I'm keen to try.

Have you tried anything from the Essence range? If so any love/hates?
