Drugstore Finds: Essence All About Cupcake Lipstick
Browsing around the makeup section has been very therapeutic for me. I enjoy going around, and discovering new products that are offered in our local counters. I must say that drugstore brands have improved a lot because they already offer many products that had made their way to many beauty junkies’ holy grail status list. A Holy Grail product is that one item you can’t live without, but it’s hard to come by.
Today, I want to share this lipstick called All About Cupcake from the Essence brand. I believe it was just last year when Essence came here in the Philippines. I already tried quite a few of their products, and I can say that they do not disappoint. I have reviewed the Essence Eyeshadow Quattro in To Die For, and it is surely one of their items I highly recommend!
Essence says: lovely lips: intense and subtle shades guarantee a fabulous splash of color on your lips. the color-coded packaging in the exact same color as the lipstick makes reaching for your favorite shade even easier.
Cost: about Php 150 | Availability: Essence counters at Watsons/SM Dept. Stores.
I have used this a lot, because I leave it inside my office drawer. It is perfect for touch-ups and if I want more moisture on my lips. It doesn’t have any glitters or shimmers, but it has a satin, glossy finish. It is not a long-wear lipstick, because of its texture, but it is very comfortable to wear, and it is perfect for everyday.
Excuse the shiny face LOL!
Essence has a variety of colors on their lipsticks, but only a few does not have glitters. This product is not a must-have but if you want to save some money but still look pretty, you may want to check this out! 
That’s it for this post. Don’t forget to subscribe and follow me for more beauty and random musings.
Have a great weekend ahead!

It’s a good thing that Essence recently popped up at an SM near me, then! The shade looks very pretty, plus its affordable!

This is super affordable Juvy! It looks good on you. I love the shade. Thanks for this review, the color is pretty but I think I’ll give it a pass for now. I’m saving up for long lasting ones.

Tama, better buy the long-lasting ones. This is one of my impulse buys, good thing I liked it but will no longer repurchase.

Looks great on you and I definitely love the color!
Although this is very affordable and it looks tempting, I still prefer lipsticks that lasts long and would no longer require touch ups every now and then. Hehe.
Great review though!

Yeah, better get the long-lasting ones! Not good to impulse buy. Lol
