{Review} Essence Jurassic World Limited Edition Collection

 

Hi guys! Happy Thursday. How has your week been so far?

A little while back Essence did an excellent collection with Jurassic World, and since Alex and I ADORE the film franchise - I knew I had to jump on this collection and get as many of the items as possible. Luckily I hit the website just as it was uploaded so I got the collection and decided to do a full review for you guys. 

Again - I don't usually buy full Essence collections anymore - but this was an exception and for good reason. Who doesn't love dinosaur-inspired make-up?

First up, the make-up tools in this collection.

Pink Make-Up Sponge in Bingo! Dino DNA R82,95

Highlighter Brush in Must be a fast Runner R82,95

Powder Brush in Stay in the car! R99,95

Again, I love Essence brushes and make-up tools - and I love the colours on the brush handles. Did I really need new make-up brushes? No... But who can say no to these cuties? 

Essence brushes are fantastic quality and affordable - so you can't go wrong with these.

Essence Jurassic World I love Extreme Limited Edition Crazy Volume Mascara R75,95

Essence is known for their good affordable mascaras and again - I adore I love the range of mascaras.

I love the Rose Gold packaging on this mascara, and as always this is a pretty good mascara and I know I will love and use it.

The mascara has a silicone brush and is very user-friendly to use - so I would really recommend this mascara. 

Essence Jurassic World Bracelet - Qualified Dinosaur Expert R57,95

Alex and I adore Blue (the main dinosaur in the Jurassic World franchise ) so this bracelet reminded me so much of her I knew I needed it. I have Jurassic Park-inspired jewellery - so this is such a good budget-friendly add-on to my collection.

I really adore the little silver dinosaur on the bracelet and will be rocking this bracelet quite often (we watch one of the movies at least once a month ).

Essence Jurassic World Lip Glow in Runnn! R82,95

I feel this is such a good product and I might go back and pick up another one of these lippies. They are perfect for a natural everyday look and leave a light pink-ish stain that lasts quite a few hours - so perfect for a natural everyday look and gives your lips a gorgeous tint of colour. 

Again the packaging is super cute and I can see myself reaching for this almost every day now that the weather has warmed up a bit.

Essence Jurassic World Highlighter in Extra Crispy R99,95

If there is one thing Essence can do flawlessly - is make super affordable buttery glowy highlighters - and this one is no exception.

There is a gorgeous Rrrrrrar! and dinosaur skin texture imprinted on the highlighter - giving it such a cool look. This is a gorgeous golden-toned highlighter- giving your skin a gorgeous glow.

I have it swatched with the lipstick in the next picture.

Essence Jurassic World Eyeshadow Palette - Have a Roarsome Day! R189,95

Now for the star of the show - the gorgeous eyeshadow palette. This palette contains 8 gorgeous buttery colours and I knew I had to pick it up to add to my collection .

The mattes blends easily, the satins go onto the skin smoothly and the glitters are truly magical. 

Swatches will be in the next two photos. 

Overall - I love this collection and can really recommend them if you can still find it in Dischem. I bought mine online from House of Cosmetics but they only have one of two items left at this stage. 

Have you tried anything from this collection?
