Hello old friend #2

I wasn’t planning on making this a regular feature on the blog but I went through my makeup stash again and rediscovered another one of my old liquid eyeliners.

After finding out that Hello October’s (Suzie) favourite liquid eyeliner was the Collection Fast Stroke eyeliner, I remember I owned and thought I would give it a go again.

It is honestly the most amazing eyeliner at such an affordable price. You can get really precise line, a great intensity of black and the applicator is easy to use meaning you have a lot of control with it.

The only reason I stopped using it was because when it got a little too close to my eyes, it started to burn which it still does but hey, beauty is pain and I’m willing to take the pain for fab winged eyeliner.

Have you found anything awesome in your stash recently?

Hello old friend | Holy Chic

It really was love at first sight and when I thought I could trade it in for a better version, well, it put me in my place and showed me who works best

 

I have tried numerous liquid eyeliners and I ventured my way back to good old Maybelline because it just can’t go wrong. It has a fine tip for precision but with flexibility to curve across the eye but sturdy enough so that it doesn’t bend (but it does slightly at the end after prolonged tlc). Its gives a jet black colour pay off and just is the master of precision. It’s also fairly in expensive so Eyeko, you can suck it because me and Maybelline is a bond you can’t ever break again.

What is your favourite liquid eyeliner at the moment?

The Round Up series : Eyeliner | Holy Chic

Something new for the blog today! J

 I thought I would start this mini round up series and today is eyeliner so I will show you my eyeliner collection I guess or at least the ones I would use. So, let’s begin J

 

1.       The eyeko eyeliners: I have paired these two together as I have the black and nave one and as I am pretty sure the entire world everyone knows that they were a free gift in the glamour magazine. And I have to say, I don’t like it that ,much. It is a very dry formula and may just dry out half way through doing your winged eyeliner. So, it’s a no from me

2.       Next is the P.S love felt eyeliner and this is another disappointment. It swatches a really intense black but on the lids, it’s like a grey colour and disappears in like 5 mins

3.       Next is the Miss Sporty brown eyeliner which doesn’t have the greatest lasting power but, its softens the eye look and gives off a more natural look

4.       I also own the Maybelline master precise eyeliner which I rave about which I still love to this day because you have precision and control. But over time the trip will dry out but not the base which is a bummer

5.       Model and Co eyeliner with the sharpener as the lid again doesn’t have the greatest lasting power but it’s on for a good amount of time and I like it J

6.       And the last two I guess work with an angled eyeliner brush. The MUA matte black eyeshadow will give a softer smokey look but the Maybelline eyestudio gel liner with give a bolder look

So there is my eyeliner collection and I think it’s good to have a mix of good and bad items. Variation right?

Have you tried any of these out? Let me know your thoughts on them in the comments below J
