Essence Lip Liner – Femme Fatale Review

Hello lovely ladies! How is everybody?

Today’s review is on a lip liner from Essence.  I am hooked on this brand. It is perfect for college-going girls like me because it delivers quality products at reasonable price. It doesn’t burn a hole in my wallet and also it is cruelty free.  Let’s get on with the review and see how it worked.

My Experience with Essence Lip Liner – Femme Fatale:

Femme Fatale is a French word and its literal translation is fatal woman.  Females who are seductive and attractive, yet clever, a bit evil, and mysterious are femme fatale and this colour is true femme fatale colour. It’s a vibrant and bright red and very different from Red Bush from this brand. It has blue undertones which makes my teeth appear whiter (added bonus).  It’s a bold lip colour, so definitely not for casual and laid back days. It has a creamy texture. The tip breaks easily because of it, but it glides on smoothly on the lips without any tugging.

If you have chapped/flaky lips, I suggest you to scrub your lips before applying this liner.  The pigmentation is heavenly. It has matte finish.  The staying power is good. It won’t survive a heavy meal, but without eating or drinking, it stays for good 5 hours.

Cons of Essence Lip Liner – Femme Fatale:

Product wastage due to sharpening, I am fonder of retractable pencil liners.
