ESSENCE

Essence is a budget-friendly makeup brand known for trend-driven formulas and playful packaging, covering everything from base products to eyes, lips and brows. Our Essence collection brings together the label's most talked-about launches so you can build a full look from one place.

A quick buying guide to the Essence range

For complexion, the ESSENCE Corrector & Concealer is a two-in-one stick designed to neutralise and cover, making it a handy pick for anyone searching for an easy essence corrector or essence concealer in one product. If you're after warmth, the ESSENCE Baby Got Bronze Bronzing Stick is a cream-to-powder stick that adds a sun-kissed finish and blends easily into cheeks and temples, while the ESSENCE Soft Touch Bouncy Blush gives a soft-baked, buildable flush for the cheeks.

Eyes are well covered too. The ESSENCE Lash Princess False Lash Effect Mascara is one of the brand's most searched-for products, built to add volume and length for a false-lash look, and it pairs well with the ESSENCE Kajal Pencil for definition along the lash line or with an ESSENCE Eye Shadow Palette for a full eye look. Brows are handled by the ESSENCE Lash Brow Gel Mascara for a tinted, groomed finish, the ESSENCE Fix It Like A Pro Transparent Brow Gel for a clear hold, and the ESSENCE Brow Lift & Freeze Glue 01 for a laminated, brushed-up brow style. Keep pencils sharp with the ESSENCE Duo Sharpener, made to fit two pencil sizes.

For lips, the ESSENCE Line N Stain Tattoo Lip Liner combines a lip liner with a tint for longer-wearing colour on the lips, and the ESSENCE Aqua Jelly Colour Changing Lipstick reacts to your lip's pH for a personalised tint. Browse the wider Lips and Eyes collections to mix Essence pieces with other brands, or check Face Make up for more base products.

Choosing the right Essence pieces for your look

Start with what you use daily: a concealer and a lip product cover most routines, then add a bronzing stick or blush for warmth and colour. If your focus is eyes and brows, the mascara, brow gel and brow glue work as a trio for a defined finish. Always patch test new formulas, check the label for the full ingredient list, and speak with a pharmacist or beauty advisor if you have sensitive skin or specific concerns. New Essence and other beauty arrivals land regularly in our Just Landed collection, and you can also explore Beauty Essentials for everyday staples to pair with your Essence picks.
