By the looks of it, the Essence Bloom Me Up! Collection is the epitome of Spring beauty. Floral embossing, lace, pastels, and a little bit of romance. There's not much more a girl could ask for. The collection consists of 3 mono eyeshadows, 1 duo eye pencil, 2 lipsticks, 2 blush sticks, 1 shimmer powder, 4 polishes, nail lace tips, 4 brushes, and a brush holder. Here's the lowdown on a few pieces from the collection now available in Canada:
Bloom Me Up! Shimmer Powder in Rose It Up! - I can't get over the intricacy of the floral design. For fear of removing the design, I winced every time I touched the surface of the powder. The Essence Shimmer powder is soft to the touch. It's a light beige colour that is shimmery but not overly so. The shade is too pale as a highlight for my face but would look lovely on some of you lighter ladies! I prefer this shimmer powder as a light dusting over the decollette for a subtle night-out glow.

Behold the Essence Mono Eyeshadows in 03 Blow My Mint, 01 Bloomylicious and 02 Rose It Up! The world would be a better place if all eyeshadows came with this same feminine embossing. As for the product, all three shadows seem to be a similar white-based, sheer pigment with a tint of either green, beige, or pink. Unfortunately, I didn't find these shadows to translate well on the lids. Although they feel soft and blendable, the mono eyeshadows made my eyes look a bit dry and chalky.
Last but certainly not least are the Nail Lace Tips in Bloomylicious. These dainty and delicate nail stickers come in 7 different sizes and 2 designs for a total of 28 stickers per package. They are actually quite "delicate" in the sense that if you do anything rough with your hands, pieces might fall off, so be sure to use a top coat! I'm a huge fan and will most certainly be stalking my local Shoppers' Drug Mart for another pack or two.
If you're looking for pure eye candy, definitely pick up a piece or two from the Essence Bloom Me Up! Collection. Personally, I wasn't impressed any particular product other than the nail lace tips. The formulations shadows and face powders were so-so, but if you're anything like me you'd pick them up just to look at. If there was ever such thing as too pretty, this collection would be it.
