Essence Longlasting Lipliner in 01 Ready For Red- Applied

It has a very good color pay off and applies opaque in a single swipe. The finish of the liner is matte that does not budge after application and prevents lipstick from bleeding. Even though the lip liner had a soft smooth texture, it was difficult to apply and the tugging involved often resulted in breakage. Overall it had a good lasting power with over 6 hours of wear.
To sum it all up, Essence Longlasting Lipliner in 01 Ready For Red is a pocket friendly buy that has a good color payoff, long lasting power and is exceptional at keeping lipstick from bleeding.
Pros: 

• Wide range of colors to choose from. 
• Retractable packaging prevents product loss. 
• Good color pay off. 
• Prevents lipstick from bleeding. 
• Lasting power of 6 hours.

Cons: 

• It was difficult to apply and prone to breakage.
