July 9, 2010 1:12 pm
Germany may have just missed a shot at the World Cup finals, but its bargain beauty brand, Essence Cosmetics, which landed on our shores in April, is a winner stateside. While the nine-year-old company typically introduces 18 themed, limited-edition lines per year at home, that number has been whittled down to four to six for the U.S., the latest of which is called Surfer Babe. A wave-riding-inspired array of aquas, lavenders, grays, melons, pinks, and whites, the range includes a six-colored eye palette, three waterproof liquid eyeliners, an eyeliner pen, three lip glosses, and a powder blush. Most exciting, though, are its four spot-on nail varnishes, which pretty much cover every shade of polish we like to dabble in for summer—exclusive of neons, that is. The two pastel shades are the perfect complement to sun-kissed skin while the gray and fuchsia offer slightly darker, transitional options that will serve you well as fall rolls around. Also, they cost $1.99 a piece—$1.99! Pick up all four for under $10 at an Ulta store near you while supplies last.
