Weekly price check for Essence makeup in Iraq: October 26 – November 2, 2026. If you are refreshing your makeup bag this week, the lowest sticker price is not always the whole story. The bigger question is: how much more are other stores charging for the same item? Across the Essence makeup listings on TajPrice this week, the widest cross-store gaps are between 32% and 70%. On a small lip product that can mean 1,000–1,750 IQD; on a face product the difference can reach 4,200 IQD. Those amounts add up fast, especially if you are buying more than one product.
We ranked the following products by cross-store price spread, from biggest to smallest. For each one, we show the best price available now, the full price range, the number of stores carrying it, and the potential saving if you avoid the highest price. All prices are in Iraqi dinars (IQD) and were checked for the week of October 26 – November 2, 2026. Prices can move, so confirm the final price at checkout.
1. 
Essence Birthday Bomb Shiny Lip gloss - 10ml
Best price: 2,500 IQD. Price range: 2,500–4,250 IQD. Stores: 2. Spread: 70%. Potential saving: 1,750 IQD.
This is the biggest percentage gap on this week’s list. The low end is 2,500 IQD, while the high end reaches 4,250 IQD. With only two stores listed, there is less price competition, so comparing before buying matters even more. If you want a shiny lip product for a gift or a small treat, this is one where a quick check can keep more money in your pocket.
2. 
Essence Lash Princess Volume Mascara - Black
Best price: 4,500 IQD. Price range: 4,500–7,500 IQD. Stores: 6. Spread: 66.7%. Potential saving: 3,000 IQD.
Six stores carry this eye product, and the gap between the cheapest and most expensive is 3,000 IQD. That is a serious difference for an everyday makeup item. Because it is widely available, you have more chances to compare and find a better deal. If you are loyal to one shop, it is still worth checking whether another retailer has it lower this week.
3. 
Essence I Love Extreme Volume Waterproof Mascara - Black
Best price: 3,750 IQD. Price range: 3,750–6,000 IQD. Stores: 7. Spread: 60%. Potential saving: 2,250 IQD.
This waterproof eye product is one of the most widely stocked items on the list, with seven stores. Even so, the price range is wide: 3,750 IQD at the low end and 6,000 IQD at the high end. If you need something reliable for sports, swimming, or long days, compare first. The saving is large enough to cover another small makeup item.
4. 
Essence Multaitask Concealer
Best price: 7,000 IQD. Price range: 7,000–11,200 IQD. Stores: 4. Spread: 60%. Potential saving: 4,200 IQD.
This week’s biggest absolute saving is on this face product: 4,200 IQD between the best price and the top of the range. Four stores are listed, and the gap is wide. If you are buying a cover-up pen for highlighting and covering imperfections, do not skip the comparison step. Paying 11,200 IQD when another store has it for 7,000 IQD is an avoidable overspend.
5. 
Essence Spooky Lip Gloss
Best price: 2,500 IQD. Price range: 2,500–3,750 IQD. Stores: 3. Spread: 50%. Potential saving: 1,250 IQD.
This seasonal lip product has a 50% spread across three stores. The best price is 2,500 IQD, and the top price is 3,750 IQD. If you like themed or limited-edition makeup, this is a good reminder that limited items can still vary a lot by retailer. Check availability and price together, because stock may be limited.
6. 
Essence Dip Waterproof 24H Long Lasting Eyeliner - 01 Black
Best price: 4,690 IQD. Price range: 4,690–6,750 IQD. Stores: 7. Spread: 43.9%. Potential saving: 2,060 IQD.
Seven stores carry this long-wear eye product, yet the price still ranges from 4,690 IQD to 6,750 IQD. That is more than 2,000 IQD in difference. If you wear eye makeup daily, this is exactly the kind of product where a little comparison saves money over time.
7. 
Essence Lash and Brow Gel Mascara - Clear
Best price: 3,560 IQD. Price range: 3,560–5,000 IQD. Stores: 5. Spread: 40.4%. Potential saving: 1,440 IQD.
This clear brow and lash product is practical, and it is available in five stores. The price gap is 1,440 IQD. It may look small next to the face product saving, but for an affordable makeup item it is still meaningful. If you are already placing an order, compare this one too.
8. 
Essence Juicy Bomb Shiny Lipgloss
Best price: 2,500 IQD. Price range: 2,500–3,500 IQD. Stores: 5. Spread: 40%. Potential saving: 1,000 IQD.
Five stores list this shiny lip product, with a 1,000 IQD difference between the best and highest price. It is one of the lower absolute savings on the list, but it is also a low-priced product, so 1,000 IQD is a 40% difference. If you are buying several lip products, this is an easy one to add to your comparison list.
9. 
Essence Liquid Bronzer
Best price: 5,670 IQD. Price range: 5,670–7,750 IQD. Stores: 5. Spread: 36.7%. Potential saving: 2,080 IQD.
This liquid face product is listed in five stores with a 2,080 IQD gap. That is a useful saving if you are building a face makeup routine. The best price is 5,670 IQD, while the highest is 7,750 IQD. Check the shade and stock before you commit, and compare the total basket if you are buying more than one item.
10. 
Essence Liquid Eyeliner
Best price: 5,670 IQD. Price range: 5,670–7,500 IQD. Stores: 3. Spread: 32.3%. Potential saving: 1,830 IQD.
This eye product closes the list with a 32.3% spread across three stores. The difference is 1,830 IQD. It is the smallest percentage gap in this week’s top 10, but it is still large enough to matter. If you are shopping for eye makeup, compare it together with the other Essence eye products on this list.
What this means for Iraqi shoppers: The main lesson this week is simple: Essence is affordable, but not every store prices it the same. The biggest savings are not always on the most expensive product. A 2,500 IQD lip product with a 70% spread can be just as important to compare as a 7,000 IQD face product. Before you buy, check the product page, confirm the store, and look at the total price including delivery if you are ordering online. If you are shopping in person, save the best price on your phone and use it as a quick reference.
Also keep in mind that stock changes quickly. A store with the best price today may sell out before the weekend, and a higher-priced store may be the only one with the shade you want. That is why comparing early in the week — especially between October 26 and November 2, 2026 — gives you more options.
