Essence Lash Princess False Lash Effect Mascara Review

I have been using Maybelline One by One for YEARS. I love the rubber brush that individually coats and separate the lashes. I have tried other wands and brands, but always threw them in the bin after a couple uses. As I get older (or simply rub my eyes too much) it seems my lashes just aren’t as thick and fluttery as they used to be. So I did a quick google for a mascara that would be good for thin lashes and this one came up. I went straight to Farmers the next day and bought one. I also googled tips to add volume and it seems a lash primer would be a good idea (got me one of those too). The combination of primer and mascara gives me lash miracles!

I thought I would hate the brush because it is a bristle brush, but I don’t. The bristles are tapered and feathered around the wand head nicely. I have precise controlled application, and doing the lower lashes is easy too.

I have even had tears while wearing this mascara and it didn’t seem to run.

And because the item is so cheap, what have you got to lose. Give it a go! You might be surprised

I think it's a decent mascara in a pinch because of the low price but it is a bit thick which makes my lashes clumpy if I'm not careful. The formula dries to quickly in the tube and that makes the 'clumpyness' harder to control especially with such a big brush. It does give my lashes more volume but I stick to one layer. Less is more with this mascara.

Purchased this specifically as I have heard a lot about it on social media. Really cute mint coloured heart and ribbon details on the packaging. Wand tapers down a smaller point. Does what it says it will. Creates a false lash effect which I enjoy the look of. One coat is enough, though 2 coats can give you that extra look. 2 coats can give a clumpy look sometimes and I also find it to be quite heavy, like my eyes are weighed down.

I like the look, and its affordable. Its not my favourite from the brand but wouldn't hesitate to repurchase in future.

I would compare this to the CoverGirl exhibitionist but I rate this slightly higher only due to price. It's very volumising. It can be slightly clumpy so if you hate then maybe not for you but I love it

Essence is a super affordable brand, which is also vegan and will forever amaze me! This mascara definitely gave me "false lash effect" that it said it would. The shape of the brush also allows precision of your application which is super helpful too. I cannot fault this one :)

After hearing about this mascara online, I had to give it a go. It was so inexpensive and easy to find at my local farmers.

The packaging is adorable, mint green and black with 3D accents. The brush has an interesting shape, it is quite long but the end is still tapered enough to allow precise application.

When I apply this, I curl my lashes first, and I also make sure to wipe the brush off. Otherwise, you can easily apply too much product and end up with transfer on or below your eyelids and clumpy lashes. This is one downfall, but for the results of this mascara it is worthwhile.

My lashes look like falsies when I use this mascara, they are so long thanks to the fibers and the curl is held in place. Throughout the day, I get no transfer or flaking, which is ideal. This mascara is really difficult to remove though, micellar water doesn't quite cut it, so I don't like wearing it all the time.

For the price, and the results, this mascara is great. It is definitely worth giving a try, I would purchase it again despite it's downfalls.

These mascaras in the lash princess range are so good they do everything you want from your mascara and better than alot of high end mascaras this is one I always repurchase never let's me down and so affordable the formula great I have nothing bad to say

Got this because of the rave of it in Tiktok. I have straight asian eyelashes so without using eyelash primer prior to applying it leaves me with spider lashes that are heavy and leads my eyelashes to droop down. If you're gonna go for it with eyelashes like me def prep with eyelash curl and eyelash primer but to be honest, would be better off finding another mascara to do the job.

essence has been one of my favourite makeup brands for a couple of years, but I've only recently tried this mascara, due to all the great reviews on YouTube.

It does live up to the hype! Just a couple of swipes give a great, defined yet natural look that lasts all day. Removes well with micellar water and a cotton pad.
