I picked up two products a week or so ago from the limited essence range New In Town which is exclusive to Target. I really liked the look of quite a few things in this range, but I only picked up two items, one on a whim and one I was dying to get.
I picked up the new blush, Blush Up! in shade 10 heat wave which is a striking mixture of orange and bright pink. This was the whole reason for my trip to Target, I have really been liking Essence products lately and I couldn't pass adding this baby to my collection for the mere price of $6.45 AU. This is really pigmented so I have to use a light hand and a big fluffy blush with this to avoid looking like a clown. Technically you could get three colours out of this blush, the orange, the pink and a mixture of the two however I prefer just to mix them. This is very pigmented and lasts for 4-5 hours on my oily skin which I think is great for the price! I would definitely recommend picking this up from Target while you can.
I also grabbed the XXXL Longlasting Lipgloss Matt Effect in shade 05 velvet rose which is a lovely muted pink colour. I don't own any other colours like this but I do really like it, matt lip products are not the best for my dry lips but it helps if I use a lip scrub beforehand and make sure my lips are moisturised. This is still moisturising but not as much as a non matt product. I don't consider this to be extremely long lasting, more an hour or two on my lips, without food or drinks. However for the price, $4.10 AU I think this is good quality, just make sure to have it on hand for touch ups.
I did really want to pick up one of the eye palettes as well, all about nude, however they only had the candy coloured one which I would unfortunately never touch! If I see it I will probably grab it, after all it is only 6.45 AU, and really how many nude palettes can you have?!
Have you tried any of Essence's limited edition ranges?
