REVIEW: ESSENCE NAIL ART EXPRESS DRY DROPS


Hi loves! How are y’all doing? Well, if you have checked out my last post, where I did a review on Essence Silky Touch Blush, I stated that I purchased few items from Essence and there you go, here’s another review on a nail product from them! If you are a person who hates waiting for your nail polish to dry, then this is for you!

Product: Essence Nail Art Express Dry Drops

Price: RM10.90

Quantity: 8ml or 0.27 fl.oz

Shelf life: 30 months

Available at: Watsons or other drugstores






Appearance: It comes in a cute little glass bottle with a white pipette on top. Travel friendly. The drops are clear and kinda feels oily which is a good thing, I’ll explain it why in a second. It has a very mild smell, which is totally bearable. (I’m sorry, I’m bad in describing smell..hihi)


What is says? : Quick drying drops that dry nailpolish within seconds.




Ingredients: CYCLOPENTASILOXANE, HEXAMETHYLDISILOXANE, DIMETHICONE, PRUNUS AMYGDALUS DULCIS (SWEET ALMOND) OIL, TOCOPHERYL ACETATE


Directions: Apply 1-2 express dry drops on to your freshly polished nails.




Experience: I hate every single second of my life waiting for my nail polish to dry. True! So, that’s where I found this lil guy! I usually apply 2 drops directly on my nails since it’s a little longer, but if you’ve shorter nails.. Trust me, 1 drop is good to go! 

Will you believe me that it only took 50 seconds for my nail polish to dry completely?? But, that’s the truth! If you applied more than 2 coats of nailpolish, then you have to wait longer, about 3-4 minutes. This express dry drop is MAGIC! They work amazingly on anybody! 


Finish look of my nails! 


Pros:

  • Clear drops
  • Comes in handy dripper
  • Travel friendly
  • Saves much time
  • Drops are a bit oily which moisturize the cuticles (oiliness disappear in seconds)


Cons:

  • Nail polish doesn’t looks smooth on nail, once applied top coat. (gets too thick)



Will I repurchase? Hell yeah!! Certainly will grab 1, once I’m done with this!


Rate: 4.7/5


Thank you for reading!

REVIEW: ESSENCE SILKY TOUCH BLUSH (AUTUMN PEACH)


Hello ladies! So the other day, My sister and I decided to shop for drugstore makeup products at Watson as they had weekly sales going on! Who doesn't want discounts?! We all know, only 2 things can change a woman’s mood; I love you & 50% discount! Hahah! 

We grabbed quite a number of them, you will see them in my upcoming reviews. (I just need some time to try it, so that I can give you my honest opinion). I was actually on the hunt of getting my hands on the Essence’s ombre blush but I don’t think they have it in Malaysia, I’m not sure, correct me if I’m wrong. So I grabbed a different blush from Essence. Scroll down to know if it’s a Yay or Nay..

Product: Essence’s Silky Touch Blush in “Autumn Peach”

Quantity: 5 gm

Price: RM12.90

Available at: Watson’s or any other drugstores. 






Appearance: Powder blush with a decent packaging. Very light weight as it’s convenient for travelling. This blush feels so silky and blends like a dream. Slightly shimmery but hardly visible once applied. It has a mild cinnamon smell, but trust me it’s not overpowering at all. The smell fades away really quickly, so no worries.


What it says: Silky soft blush for a fresh looking complexion all day long.




( Apologies, for the tag still attached to the blush, as it will rip off the sticker if I remove it)

Ingredients: TALC, MICA, MAGNESIUM CARBONATE, OCTYLDODECYL STEAROYL STEARATE, ISOSTEARYL NEOPENTANOATE, ZINC STEARATE, ALUMINA, TIN OXIDE, METHYLPARABEN, PROPYLPARABEN, CI 19140 (YELLOW 5 LAKE), CI 15850 (RED 6/RED 7 LAKE), CI 77491, CI 77891 (TITANIUM DIOXIDE).


Directions: Apply lightly on cheeks.




My Experience: I have been using this blush for a while now and you know what? I love it! Of all the colors in their collections, this autumn peach is the bomb.com! Loving the color! Even though it’s slightly shimmery, it’s still appropriate for daily wear as it looks very natural on face.

On first application, the blush won’t show up that much because of the shade, but trust me, other shades from this collections are much more pigmented. I wore it on humid weather & it stays up on my face for 4 hours which is quite impressive for a drugstore product. “Autumn peach” suits for all skin shade, as for dark skin beauties, you’ll just have to layer up the blush till you’re satisfied with the color pay off. 


Look how pigmented the blush is! It definitely compliments my skin! 

Pros:
  • Gives natural finish to skin
  • Lovely shade
  • Blends very well
  • Smooth and silky texture
  • Comes in full size
  • Very affordable


Cons:
  • None!!  

-        
Will I repurchase? : Definitely!! I’m so in love with this shade, and I would like to try other shades as well.


Rate: 5/5
