Essence vs Maybelline:Cream Eyeshadows

Hello all! Today's review is going to be on the comparison between the Essence cream eyeshadows and the Maybelline Colour Tattoos. Let's jump in!

To start off, I'd like to tell you which colours I own. The Essence one is a Ballerina Backstage eye souffle in Pas Des Copper which with my fantastic French skills (lol jokes google translate) means not copper. I have no idea why they called it that, maybe because it's actually brown haha..
Anyway, the Maybelline 24hr Colour Tattoo I own is in Bold Gold, a pretty self explanatory name.



The Essence one is very squishy and smooth, whereas the Maybelline one is harder and isn't as creamy. I like the consistency of the Essence one better just because it's easier to apply, but I think the Maybelline one lasts longer on your eyelid but also lasts longer in the pot as your not using it as fast.

The Maybelline one is also a lot more vivid and has more shimmer.

 

I prefer the Maybelline one, because even though it's more expensive, there are more colours to choose from and you get more product out of it. The Essence one is worth checking out though, that's if they are still selling it!

 

Au Revoir!
