Essence is one of the easiest affordable beauty brands to find in Iraq, especially when it comes to eye makeup. For the week of September 15–22, 2026, TajPrice compared popular Essence mascaras and eyeliners across multiple Iraqi stores. The goal is simple: help you see which products are widely available, where the price gap is big, and when a deal is actually worth it. All prices below are in Iraqi dinar (IQD). Stock and prices can change during the week, so click any product link to see the live comparison before you buy.
This week, mascaras dominate the list, led by waterproof and volume formulas. That makes sense for Iraqi weather and long days: waterproof options resist sweat, tears, and swimming, while regular volume mascaras are often cheaper. Eyeliners also show strong demand, especially waterproof and 24-hour formulas. Here are the most popular Essence eye makeup products this week, ranked by availability and shopper interest.
1. 
Essence I Love Extreme Volume Waterproof Mascara - Black
This is the standout value of the week. It is available at 7 stores, with a best price of 3,750 IQD and a range of 3,750–5,500 IQD. That 46.7% spread is the biggest on our list, so where you buy matters a lot. If you find it near the lower end, it is a strong pick for strong volume and waterproof wear. It is especially useful for sports, swimming, or days when your makeup needs to survive heat and humidity. At 5,500 IQD, however, you should compare other waterproof mascaras first.
2. 
Essence Dip Waterproof 24H Long Lasting Eyeliner - 01 Black
Also available at 7 stores, this long-wear eyeliner has a best price of 4,690 IQD and a range of 4,690–6,500 IQD, a 38.6% spread. It promises up to 24 hours of wear and has a softer applicator for precise lines. Because the price difference is large, check more than one store before buying. If you want a deep black eyeliner that stays put, this is one of the most popular options this week.
3. 
Essence Lash Princess False Lash Effect Waterproof Mascara - Black
Available at 7 stores with a best price of 6,750 IQD. The price range was not listed in this week’s data, so it is worth checking live prices. This one is known for a dramatic lash effect and waterproof performance, which explains the higher price. If you need length, volume, and resistance to sports or tears, compare it with the cheaper waterproof mascara at number 1 and the waterproof extreme volume option at number 6.
4. 
Essence Lash Princess Volume Mascara - Black
Available at 6 stores, with a best price of 4,500 IQD and a range of 4,500–6,750 IQD. That 50.0% spread is the highest percentage gap on the list, meaning shoppers can save a lot by comparing. It uses a cobra brush for thick, full lashes. If you do not need waterproof wear, this can be a better value than the waterproof dramatic lash version. For everyday volume, it is a solid budget choice.
5. 
Essence I Love Extreme Crazy Volume Mascara - Black
Available at 6 stores, with a best price of 5,250 IQD and a range of 5,250–5,500 IQD. The spread is only 4.8%, so pricing is fairly consistent across stores. This is a good sign if you want to buy quickly without hunting for a big discount. It is designed for dramatic lashes and maximum coverage. If you see it at 5,250 IQD, that is close to the best price available this week.
6. 
Essence I Love Extreme Crazy Volume Waterproof Mascara - Black
Available at 6 stores with a best price of 5,500 IQD. No price range was listed this week, so the live comparison is important. This is the waterproof version of the extreme volume formula, made for people who want mega volume without worrying about smudging. If waterproof wear is your priority, compare it with number 1 at 3,750 IQD and number 3 at 6,750 IQD.
7. 
Essence Waterproof Eyeliner Pen - 01 Black
Available at 6 stores, with a best price of 5,500 IQD and a range of 5,500–6,500 IQD, an 18.2% spread. It has a felt tip and a smudge-proof, waterproof formula, which makes it useful for accurate eyeliner styles. The price gap is moderate, so a quick check across stores can still save you around 1,000 IQD.
8. 
Essence Call Me Queen Mascara - 11.5ml
Available at 6 stores, with a best price of 6,400 IQD and a range of 6,400–6,750 IQD. The spread is only 5.5%, so prices are stable. The larger tube and volumizing formula make it appealing for people who want a bold look. It is not the cheapest option, but the narrow price range means you can buy with less worry about overpaying.
9. 
Essence Lash Princess Curl and Volume Mascara - Black
Available at 6 stores, with a best price of 6,500 IQD and a range of 6,500–6,750 IQD. The spread is just 3.8%, the tightest on the list. That means most stores are selling it at nearly the same price. It is designed for lift and volume, with a peanut-shaped brush for the inner and outer corners. If curl is your main concern, this is a reliable pick, though it sits at the higher end of Essence mascara prices.
10. 
Essence 24Ever Ink Eye Liner - 01 Black
Available at 5 stores, with a best price of 6,250 IQD and a range of 6,250–6,500 IQD, a 4.0% spread. Fewer stores carry it, but pricing is stable. It offers long-lasting, waterproof color and an extra fine brush for precise lines. If you like ink-style eyeliner and need it to last up to 24 hours, this is a popular option. Because availability is lower, buy early if you see it in stock.
What to keep in mind before buying: Waterproof vs regular: Waterproof formulas are better for Iraqi heat, sports, swimming, and long events, but they need a good oil-based remover. Regular formulas are often cheaper and easier to remove. Price spread: The biggest possible savings this week are on number 1, number 4, and number 2. For those, comparing stores is worth the effort. Availability: Products at 7 stores are easier to find. Products at 5 or 6 stores may sell out faster, especially popular mascaras. Delivery cost: A product that costs 500 IQD more but has free or cheaper delivery can end up being the better deal. Always check the total. Authenticity and expiry: Buy from trusted stores, read recent reviews, and check the expiry date when the product arrives. Weekly changes: Prices in Iraq can move quickly. This guide is for September 15–22, 2026, so use the live product links for the current price.
Final take:
If you want the best value this week, Essence I Love Extreme Volume Waterproof Mascara - Black at 3,750 IQD and 7 stores is hard to beat. For eyeliner, Essence Dip Waterproof 24H Long Lasting Eyeliner - 01 Black at 4,690 IQD is the strongest deal. If you prefer stable pricing and a specific finish, the more stable-priced options in the list are safer buys because their price gaps are small. Choose based on whether you need waterproof wear, volume, curl, or precision, then compare the live prices on TajPrice before checkout.
