Essence Foundation

Essence foundation is one of the products of the German brand of cosmetics. This brand is aimed at a youth audience and is presented in the most affordable price segment. At the moment, Essence creams can be found in almost any cosmetic store throughout Russia. Since 2014, the brand has been presented in the stores of the Crimean peninsula.

Many not only call the tonal products of this company one of the best, but also admit that they have been using them for more than one year. So we can say that the brand has proven itself well in the Russian cosmetics market.

All of the company's products are environmentally friendly and not tested on animals. Also an important point in the brand philosophy is to maintain quality and continuous improvement of products while maintaining affordability. Due to this, Essence foundations have a number of significant features that distinguish them from similar products from other companies.

Since all brand creams are designed primarily for girls under the age of 25, they include components aimed at maintaining the health of young skin. At this age, a particularly common problem is numerous inflammations, acne, overdrying of the skin from the sun or cosmetics.In order to restore skin balance and prevent new breakouts, emollients and neutrals are added to Essence brand foundations, and in general the composition is based on a relatively small amount of additives.

Many girls who used it every day note that it does not clog the skin, rinses off perfectly and does not show comedogenicity.

The consistency of the product is quite thick and dries quickly. At the same time, the Essence foundation lines include a small palette of tones, however, the shades are chosen so carefully that they suit most girls. So, for example, foundation Essence Anti-Spot Cover Cream and is completely presented in only one color, but its dense texture is perfect for almost any type of skin. Other models of the brand also contain combinations of substances that help the product perfectly adapt to skin color.

The various Essence brand foundations differ from each other and they should be selected depending on the final goals that you want to achieve through the use of this cosmetic product. For example, Anti Spot Cover Cream due to its consistency, it masks skin imperfections well and evens out the tone of the face. However, at the same time, it is not without the disadvantages of tonal products of this type: as noted in numerous reviews, this tool easily creates a “mask effect” and makes the skin heavier.

Tone cream Essence "Stay All Day 16h" Not only does it blend perfectly with the original skin tone, but it blends perfectly with no streaks or blemishes, even when applied to damp skin.In this model, the brand tried to get rid of the obvious “mask effect”, while not losing the texture that looks harmonious on the face. In addition, this foundation is very durable (at least 10 hours), does not dry the skin and does not form a greasy shine in the T-zone.

With all the positive qualities of the brand, a novelty of last year Essence "Camouflage" provoked conflicting opinions. This 2 in 1 product is a blend of foundation and concealer. It's no secret that such related products rarely turn out to be successful, and judging by the reviews, the new Essence is no exception. They note its dense texture and ability to absorb excess sebum, which is an important plus for problem skin. However, this tonal remedy only emphasizes fine wrinkles and dry skin, so here it is necessary to use a make-up base first. At the same time, it really hides redness perfectly, including due to its yellowish undertone. The same can be said about the new tool. "2 in 1 Essence Instant Matt Make-Up".

Another controversial product from Essence is foundation. "All About Matt", which caused a lot of controversy among the reviews. Initially, the product is declared as matting and this is the first thing that people pay attention to when buying. In fact, this foundation gives a slight “wet” effect, without matting the skin in the way that most people are used to. In addition, many note that the foundation turned out to be unsuitable for very oily skin - it quickly “slips” from it, showing all the flaws that it should hide.
