When I was making a preview about this summer collection by Essence, called The Beach House, I already picked some products that I would take a closer look in the store. These products were the beach glow fluid, kabuki brush, also a nail polish and a bag. Just the next day I got a package from Dominur (which represents Essence and Catrice), with a lot of products to test out. Thank you Dominur! So let's see what are my first impressions.
Core Lipstick in 02 a summer kinda girl
Very creamy consistency like all the Essence's lipsticks. I don't use lipsticks a lot, so I can't say much or even compare the staying power or consistency with others. This one doesn't stay on my lips long, not even an hour or two, so you will have to reapply it often. But it is a pretty rosy color.

Duo Blush in 01 give me vitamin sea!
Great pigmented, I wasn't expecting that, although the lighter shade is a tiny bit chalky. It stays on my cheeks the entire day with minimal fading. I also want to mention that it's matt, it doesn't contain any shimmer.

Beach Glow Fluid in 01 girls just wanna have sun!
My favorite product from the whole collection. It's a golden fluid with a little shimmer that makes your skin look tanned and like you have been all day in the sun. I use it just on my cheeks and oh my god it looks amazing. You can also mix it with your cream and that way apply it all over your face.
Kabuki Brush in 01 don't make a wave!
This kabuki brush is supposed to be for a duo blush and other powder textures, but I can't imagine using this for a blush, because it's so big. I use it with my powder and for that it's great. The bristles are supple synthetic and super soft. It also has a zig-zag pattern and a lovely summery design with a message 'Every Summer has a Story'.

Texture of this eyeshadow is a bit chalky and it's not well pigmented, especially that green-ish color. I like the zig-zag pattern and that you get two colors. I didn't test it well, because I don't really wear this shades on my eyes. I did try to apply it and the white was okay, but the green-ish didn't show on my eyes much. Actually, for the swatch I used a primer underneath and some water to make color visible.
I like this collection a lot, especially the glow fluid. It makes me so excited for summer vacations, but first I have to make all the final exams :/
