Though Eloise is a countess, is she also a Princess of The Netherlands and Princess of Orange-Nassau?
Is the title, countess, an additional title, sort of like Countess of Wessex?

No, It is only Eloise Sophie Beatrix Laurence Countess of Orange-Nassau honourable miss van Amsberg
We have to call her just countess Eloise van Orange-Nassau

I might be wrong, but my guess is that Eloise´s cousin Amalia will look a lot like Eloise, when she´s at her age. There are some very dominant features inherited through grandma Beatrix. All 3 children of Beatrix look a lot like her (Constantijn a little bit more like prince Claus). And now Eloise and Amalia as well. Eloise also looks a bit like Laurentien, but I see more of her paternal grandma in her.

Eloise doesn't look like Amalia at all, she loos like Laurentien as two drops of water. I don't know what it is... I think it is her eyes, they look a bit 'vicious' like Laurentien's

Lena didn't say Eloise looked like Amalia. She said Eloise looked like Laurentien's mother.

Eloise's paternal grandma is the Queen. I think Eloise looks a look like her mother.

I think the only one that can use the title "of Orange-Nassau" is Willem-Alexander and Maxima. Everyone else can use Prince/Princess of the Netherlands.
And ditto, Eloise looks like her mum. I can barely see any influence of her father's genes!

No. It is the opposite. To be "of the Netherlands" is to mean you can represent the royal family abroad and at gala occasions hosted by the country. To be "of Orange-Nassau" is to mean that you are a member of the Queen's royal family but not able to represent the royal family or your country abroad.
Willem and Maxima and Constantijn and Laurentien are Prince/Princesses of the Netherlands.
Johan and Mabel are Prince/Princess of Orange-Nassau.

This is so weird. The sons of Princess Margriet are titled Their Highnesses Princes of Orange-Nassau. Then howcome, Eloise, a daughter of a Prince of The Netherlands with the qualification of His Royal Highness, isn't at least a Princess with the qualification of Her Highness?

I think the Dutch government decided there were too many princes/princesses running around and decided to limit the title "HRH Prince/Princess of the Netherlands...Orange-Nassau" to the children of the Prince/ss of Orange. The father of Prince Maurits, Bernhard Jr., etc. was a prince to start with, wasn't he? Anyways, their titles are courtesy titles that aren't passed on to their kids. For example, Anna is not a princess.
