Essence Easy 2 Use Eyeliner Pen Review

Hello beauties,

I am a big-time lover of felt tip eyeliner pens, so the moment I saw this new launch from Essence, I picked it up. As far as I know, this one is a new launch, so I was expecting a better formula than what they offered earlier. Let’s see whether it worked better than other variants or not.

Price:
Rs 399

Product Description:
The name says it all: super accurate eyeliner styles are as easy as child’s play with the easy 2 use eyeliner pen. No matter whether subtle or expressive – thanks to the innovative brush tip, individual eyeliner looks are super easy, even for newbies!

My Experience with Essence Easy 2 Use Eyeliner Pen:

The Essence easy 2 use eyeliner pen has the same packaging as the other felt tip eyeliners. It has a basic black packaging with the fonts in rose gold which make it look a little fancy. It is super long and sleek which makes it handy enough to be kept in a wallet, clutch or a hand-bag. It comes at a very affordable cost, but I think most of the drugstore brands offer their felt tip liner pens at the same price. I was expecting a better formula than the earlier variants since they did not work as great for me.

I like the fact that Essence does not test its products on animals and it is a great option for those who prefer cruelty-free products. The tip is pointed and very soft, hence it glides smoothly over my eyes. It has a thin tip which lets us apply a thin eyeliner look or a thick winged one. The pen looked decent enough when I swatched it at the counter, but when I tried it on my eyes after coming home, I was left surprised. Initially when I swatched it, the pigmentation was very black but when I started to apply it on my eyes, it turned out completely grey stopping in middle.

It isn’t a perfect grey colour, but since the pigmentation wasn’t showing up correctly, it was looking like a light grey colour. When I started to use it, it worked fine but when I tried to make the winged look, it stopped and did not work well. It was causing a lot of tugging and pulling, yet I couldn’t see any colour on my eyes. In fact, at times, it even took off a lot of products instead of depositing the product on my eyes. Even then to test it, I applied it when I went out and it took whole 15 minutes to apply this eyeliner. Like, seriously? It was such a waste of time.

I stayed out for 5-6 hours with a BB cream beneath. It did not smudge a lot once applied. But then again the next day when I tried, it stopped working. I don’t know why is Essence making these dry formulas! I have to dump it because it doesn’t work despite shaking a lot, hence will never buy this again because it is just a waste of money.

Pros of Essence Easy 2 Use Eyeliner Pen:

• Affordable and available all around – in stores and online
• Super easy to use
• The tip is super smooth and soft which leads to easy lining over the eyes
• Stays for a very long time say 5-6 hours
• Essence does not test on animals

Cons of Essence Easy 2 Use Eyeliner Pen:

• It doesn’t work all the time; sometimes the pigmentation is good, but by the time I reach my second eye, the pen stops giving out the colour
• The formula inside the pen is dried up
• At times while lining my eyes, it takes some already applied product off
• The pigmentation is bad
• The formula is rubbery and gritty which leads to a lot of tugging and pulling
• Total waste of money

Would I Repurchase/Recommend Essence Easy 2 Use Eyeliner Pen?
No not at all. I am going to dump it soon because this does not work correctly. Spending 15 minutes on applying an eyeliner is an insane waste of time. Do not fall into its false claims!

IMBB Rating:
1/5

Conclusion:
I am never going to buy an eyeliner pen from Essence because all of them have turned out to be duds. I already have some good ones on my list that I am going to try.
