Hi everyone, are you ready to meet and greet and new collection by my favorite Essence? This time their lip glosses are all about the matte finish and long-lasting effect. The lipgloss collection includes five vibrant lip colors with opaque coverage and a very nice formula. Hopefully, in the nearest future Essence will add a few more colors to the range, and, for now, let's take a closer look at this gorgeous lip color.

The packaging is pretty simple, and I love its plain design, there is a soft and pointy tip applicator that makes the application process easier, but I would still recommend you use a lip liner underneath the Essence lip gloss, just to make the final look neat. I'm a lucky owner of an Essence Matt Matt Matt Longlasting Lipgloss in the most beautiful shade from collection number 03 called 'Girl Of Today'. It is a gorgeous burgundy color with a velvety finish and an awesome texture. It was love at the first sign!

The formula of the Essence Longlasting Lipgloss is absolutely amazing. 'Girl Off Today' is fully opaque from the first swipe and I would rather call it a liquid lipstick than a lip gloss. The color is simply too pigmented and creamy to be named a gloss. The Matt Matt Matt has an incredible staying power, it lasted on my lips for hours and hours. And as always my favorite part – is the scent. It smells like a chocolate truffle and even feels sweet on the lips. I literally want to eat this lip gloss!

The only downside part of Matt Matt Matt formula is that it dries out the lips a little bit. I prefer to apply Essence Longlasting Lipgloss on the exfoliated and moisturized lips, so the product goes smoothly on the lips and doesn't dry them out. Thank you so much for reading my post and have a wonderful day!

Lots of love,
