Now onto my review…
Liner first..
What I love about this eyeliner, aside from the fact that it does not hurt my eyes is that it defines my eyes and makes them pop, without screaming EYELINER! I’m not always the greatest at a straight line so I love that this defines my eye, but doesn’t look to over the top.
Mascara swatch on left, followed by eyeliner. The tip is very fine so you get a very fine line or if you were to wear it as traditional liner you could do a bolder line if you chose to. It comes in quite a few colors and I’m excited to try more in the future. I really like the wearability of it. Meaning that it not only doesn’t hurt my eyes, but it stays on the waterline where I put it. I’ve had 1 previous encounter with a “supposed” inner rim liner. Worst experience EVER. Not only did I get little flakes in my eyes, but it made my eyes all red, itchy and irritated. This does NONE of those things.
Now onto the Mascara:
I love love love this mascara. I will admit, normally I’m a bit of a mascara snob. The only thing thats touched my lashes in the last couple years is 100% Pure Lengthening and Conditioning mascara. I had bought this kit for a couple reasons, one the price and two the eyeliner, so the mascara was a bonus, but I was still definitely curious. I love how it lengthens, seperates, and gives them a boost. Or as tarte calls it “push up bra for your lashes.” I normally end up with mascara under my eyes at some point during the day, but not with this. Its quite bulletproof. Seriously. I actually had a hard time getting it off. But I found a great eye makeup remover and it took it off no problem. The also just came out with a waterproof version for all you beach babes out there. I’d love to see more colors. I love different colored mascaras.
Only $15 @ Sephora, grab it up while its still available.
