Hi! I’m glad you found your way here
When buying some products from Essence and Catrice, I got the Essence Shine Shine Shine Wet Look lip gloss as a gift… At that point I realized how much I missed those glossy lips created by opaque lip gloss! Well, enough said, here is my review .............................................................................................................................................................................

Outer appearance
The product comes in a simple transparent plastic tube, so you can take a look at the shade without any testers. The writing comes off quickly… It is obviously no high-end packaging I’m obsessed with the applicator wand! It has the softest sponge applicator that picks up the necessary amount of the product. Moreover, I like its pointed tip.

Texture and smell
I won’t say that the lip gloss feels very comfortable on my lips… It is medium tacky, if I may say so However, it doesn’t disturb me really. The lip gloss moisturizes and coats my lips delicately.
The Essence Shine Shine Shine Wet Look lip gloss has a fruity and sour fragrance, which some girls might not like. As for me, it is fine. Besides, it doesn’t linger long. .............................................................................................................................................................................
Shade
01 Behind The Scenes has a totally opaque finish.
The range comes with 13 shades.
I haven’t swatched my product, because it is of no use there
The lip gloss doesn’t have any glittering particles. However, it has such a bright and glossy finish.
I love applying it to a lipstick and imparting my lips with such a gorgeous finish. The Essence lip gloss with Maybelline Color Sensational 968:

Application
As I’ve already mentioned, the product has a good applicator, which helps apply the lip gloss without fuss. Moreover, you can control the coverage.
The product applies easily and literally glides over my lips.
I’ve applied this lip gloss even to my eyes once

Wear time
It is not super long-lasting, although it’s OK for lip glosses
The main thing is that it doesn’t flow or goes streaky.

Overall
I recommend this product to all glossy lip lovers and everyone else, actually! It is an awesome find for the price
I definitely give it 5 stars.
I hope you find my review helpful
