Some of the best products from a drugstore makeup brand that has actually stayed really affordable

I wish my drugstore was stocked like yours! And I agree with all your suggestions. Plus Essence has managed to STAY affordable. Thank you!

Cant forget their lash princess mascaras 😅💖

You didn't mention their mascara. They make the best mascara. And, they're really inexpensive, too. Such a steal!

I've had that beige liner for a while - it's creamy and lasts pretty well! I know they're not for everyone, but the False Lash Effect and Waterproof Lash Princess mascaras are some of my favorites. I also really like the six-pan eyeshadow quads.

I wonder how many drugstore and high-end brands are made from the same places and ingredients, and we're just paying high-end prices for the packaging?

I love the Essence 6 pan eyeshadow palettes, especially the Dancing Green one! And the Lash Without Limits mascara- I only need one coat!

The nude highlighter is the one i reach for over my high end and all my fun highlighters in my way too big collection of makeup. Wore it for my wedding and its been 4 years... still looks brand new 😅

i love this brand through and through; heavily underrated but so so many amazingly great products in their lineup… the highlighter is still a staple for me and i love their liners ❤❤
