It has been quite some time since I’ve used an actual eyeliner pencil. After years of wearing them I wrote them off entirely when I discovered MAC’s fluidline.
Here are my reasons for not liking eyeliner pencils:
- far too expensive for the quality
- never lasts long
- ALWAYS runs down my face
- seems to run out too quickly
Recently, however, I decided I wanted to try another eyeliner pencil…I wanted something remotely cheap because I was sure I wouldn’t like what I bought. I went with Revlon’s ColorStay eyeliner in black (about $6.97 at CVS). I chose this because of the name (colorstay) and also because it is waterproof (I’ve never used a waterproof eyeliner before).
I am beyond amazed at how well this eyeliner works!! It goes on flawlessly…it has sort of a creamy feel to it as well. You can easily put a little bit on , without worrying if the line is perfect, then spread it out with an eyeliner brush. This eyeliner does not budge! I don’t have to worry about it falling down my face after wearing it for an hour (I’ve even slept in it and it stays put!) Now I just need to find a good makeup remover for waterproof makeup!
This eyeliner works so well and it’s so easy to apply it’s almost beating out MAC’s fluidline!
