if you've read my other post, you might have known that i asked my husband to buy me some essence mascara when he was away to europe last year. he managed to get the orange and purple one. too bad he couldn't find the green one as the green one is more popular than the other two. oh well, i like the orange one, so let's see about this one.
this is the description from their website: royal treatment! the tapered brush sculpts individual lashes for a defined look with dramatic volume.
the packaging: honestly i forgot whether or not they have plastic sealing on the outer body. all i know that all lash princess mascaras come in black plastic tube that has guitar-shaped body (probably to portray a princess' body?) with ornament on the screw cap. the color is different according the type. the orange one is the volume mascara and the purple one is sculpted volume. there's a bit description on the body.

the color: there's only one color for each type and i believe it's black.

the product: although it has similar packaging, the wand is different. this one is curvy and slightly tapered at the end and has more bushy bristles. both brushes are too big for my lashes, but i can manage with the orange one. unfortunately, this one is tapered so it has bigger bristles at the bottom and i have difficulty using it for my lower lash. somehow it smudges easily because the brush is too big. the formula is a bit wet at first, but not as wet as japan's mascara. and i have to say it gets dried easily. so i think once you open it, you might use it until you finish it or it will get dried up.

the result: again, you have to remove all the excess or it will get clumpy in no time. the tapered one is great for volumizing and lengthening my lashes. especially the volume. this is more volumizing compared to the orange one. but it doesn't curl as good as the orange one, but it managed to hold the curl as good as the orange one. as i've said, i like this for my upper lashes only. it doesn't smudge or flake after 4-5 hours (i don't use makeup that long, but even on hot days, this mascara doesn't melt)

you can definitely see it lengthen and curl and volumizing my lashes |
i have to say this is another good mascara for volumizing and lengthening, but it's not as separating and curling as the orange one. if you have short lashes, you might have difficulty using this on your lower lashes. if you like volume mascara, this might be a good option as it gives more dramatic volume than the orange one. but you have to be careful because it gets clumpy easily. as for me, i like the orange one better, but i still want to try the green one as that one seems to be everyone's favorite. do you have favorite essence mascara? let me know in the comment..
