On March the 1st I and a few other Toronto beauty bloggers were lucky enough to be treated the launch of Essence Cosmetics in Canada.

Essence the world number 1 fashion orientated value brand. Available in 55 countries, it will soon be available in 900 Shoppers Drug Marts across the country.

They treated us to a wonderful night at the Ocho Hotel in downtown Toronto filled with yummy foods, manicures, makeovers and drinks.

My favourite item was the butterfly gummies (I love my butterflies) and the mini candy apples.

There were also lots of products to be looked at. Their regular shelf display and several of their limited edition collections.

Whoom! Booom!! Limited Edition counter display

I am not sure if any of these counter display items will be in Canada, but I can only hope. The one with refresher/finishing spray and eye primer is the most exciting to me. 

The company will be launching 6 limited editions a year to keep up with trends. 

All items are between $1.49 - $4.99! Which is amazing for any value brand but none the less one the has such a trend focus.

I cannot wait to try out more of the items.
