review
Why do I think you can be older and still be comfortable wearing these liners? Because they actually apply with a metallic look, as opposed to being overly glittery and chunky.
I love the precise, pointed applicator because it truly does make it easy to apply the product and get that perfectly straight line and sharp wing. With the lighter colors I found that I had to do 2-3 layers of product to get full and even opacity but the end result was definitely worth it. They look wet a lot longer than they actually are so you only have to wait around 10 seconds to apply another coat. Once placed on the eye I had no problems with color transfer, migration or fading.
The formula didn’t bother my eyes in the slightest - and my eye balls are known to be very sensitive (and I’m also a contact lens wearer). The shades all held on throughout the day until I used makeup remover in the evening.
Some cons - there is a chemical odor when you twist the product open. It’s not obscene but I did notice it right away. Shade 550 Teal Galaxy is a stainer, which is no surprise, but it’s worth mentioning because I doubt anyone wants to be left with the remnants on their eye ball. It’s also the most gorgeous color and you’ll want to own it. Wear a good primer underneath as well as a shadow (even if it’s a beige one) over top of the primer before you apply the liner to help protect things more.

Holy metallic grafitti, Batwoman! What kind of camera/lens do you use? The clarity and detail in your pictures knocked my glitter loving socks off!

Thank you! I use the Canon T5i! I had to take a class last year because I had it for a year and still couldn’t figure it out lol I bought a new lens too and that made a huge difference!
