Essence is another cosmetics brand that have arrive in Singapore pretty recently. The good news is that it offers cheap cosmetics that works! The only place I know that sells this brand is Watsons and do take note that not all Watson outlets do carry this brand.
The previous concealer that I used that was in the similar price range was ELF, I think it was their All Over Cover Stick in Ivory. I do have that concealer with me still but I will talk about it in another post. When I saw this, I knew I had to try this and see if it works, and probably have this replace over my ELF one.
The coverage of this Essence Coverstick is pretty awesome I have to say. I had a three days trip to Malaysia once and I brought this along with me to use as a foundation. I love it! It gives a good coverage and does not make my face shiny/oily. Places where I want to conceal more, I just layer over. I got it in 01 Matt Sand, which is really close to my skin tone, which is ZA shade 20-21. I have blended the concealer on the left side of the thick swatch, match my skin tone nicely!
However, the one thing I realise is that this concealer stick is abit drying on my face. To solve this problem, I put moisturiser on my face first before applying this. And viola! I love how it applies and looks on my face afterwards after moisturiser.
This concealer is so affordable, works well and easily available at Watsons (I get mine from Takashimaya). Not a wonder that I will be going back to get more backups.
