Review: Revlon Eye Art Lid+Lash+Line liquid eyeshadows and glitter eyeliner

Have you ever seen something and thought, “I don’t even care how that works. I want to collect them all.” That’s my brother with pokemon cards, and me with these babies here.



I’m still missing quite a few, but aren’t they beautiful? Way more collectable than Baby Lips… not so much as eos lip balms, though.
The colours are beautiful, too.


They have a doe-foot applicater for the cream shadow and a pointy brush for the glitter.

The deal is that they’re liquid eyeshadow on one side, and a glitter liner on the other. You’re supposed to be able to use the glitter on the tips of your lashes for extra bling, too.
(Lilac Lustre and Green Glimmer)

Lilac Lustre is a bluey-lavender shadow and liner is purple glitter suspended in a mostly-clear base.

 Green Glimmer is a teal shadow and teal and blue glitter in a clear base.


(Burnished Bling and Gold Glitz)

Burnished Bling is a gleaming copper shadow paired with a gold glitter in a brown base.

Gold Glitz is a yellow shadow with a silver glitter suspended in a semi-transparent black base (this one is my favourite!).
(Crystal Cobalt)

Crystal Cobalt is a steel blue shadow (identical to my eye colour!) and silver-multicolour glitter in a steely gel base. This one is kind of weak.

They can be kind of awkward to apply- you have to make sure they don’t go patchy and they take a while to dry. If you look the wrong way and they’re not dry, bam, they smudge. :( 
The liners are beautiful but smeary and there is a significant problem I have. You know when you were a kid and you would put elmer’s glue on your hand, then peel it off when it dried? That’s what these tend to do.

A warning to those with sensitive eyes- these shadows sometimes burn if I put them on my bare lids. Be careful and stay away from these if you have sensitive eyelids, because I don't and they still sting while they dry.


(Lilac lustre with L'oreal infallible Goldmine patted into it.)


(Cobalt Crystal shadow and Burnished Bling liner)

(Green Glimmer shadow and Gold Glitz liner)

Overall, I'm not as impresed with these as I should be, considering how many I have. If you want these and have previous experience with both liquid eyeshadow and liner, go for it! If you're a beginner, though, I'd pass these up.

Review: Maybelline Brow Drama Pomade Crayon

Image
Hey guys, long time no post! I'm here today to review the new Maybelline Brow Drama Pomade Crayon. This is an interesting product for sure- one of the many new and exciting things Maybelline has put out for us this spring. The crayon is a short, chubby pencil that is supposed to be a brow pomade in crayon form. There are obviously drawbacks to this design- while it's a cool concept, frankly, the thing is huge. Maybelline definitely should have gone with something a lot less thick. I got the shade Dark Brown, I believe. As you can see, while the product is sharp now, it doesn't take much to run it down and I fear for the day this becomes too nubby to use (I've been using it on an angle so far). The formula, however, is pretty gorgeous. It's soft and emollient, but amazingly pigmented. It gives a soft effect rather than a harsh line. Here are my brows with no product in them. And here is the Maybelline Brow Drama Pomade Crayon applied to them. I ...

May Favourites 2016!

Image
May went by so slowly for me, but it was a month of excitement for sure! Eurovision happened and I got a job! Let's see what I loved through this month. A lot of oldies in here! First I've got some Makeup Geek shadows to talk about, and for once, I'm not waxing poetic about their Foiled eyeshadows. Makeup Geek's matte shadows in Chickadee (left) and Cocoa Bear (right) are deserving of all the hype they get. They pair together perfectly to create a warm crease. I'd never actually owned a warm medium brown eyeshadow before this, and let me just say- where have I been?! I've been wearing them all month and the only complaint I have is that now I'm in a bit of an eyeshadow rut because I don't want to wear anything else! Here's them both in my crease with Makeup Geek Foiled eyeshadow in Center Stage on the lid. Every few months or so I fall back in love with my Urban Decay Electric Palette- however, it's usually the shimmers I love. This...

Products I've Hit Pan On!

Image
Whenever I look back on my instagram to see which posts were the most popular, it's always the posts featuring products I've #hitpan on. The panning community in general is awesome, so I figured I'd do a post showing all the products in my collection that currently have some pan going on! And I'm sure I'll have another post like this soon, because I have so many products, particularly eyeshadows, that are soooo close to hitting pan. Anyways- let's get into the good stuff! First up is this Too Faced Jingle All the Way "phone palette" that I've had for ages. It was my first foray into high-end eyeshadow- picked up for a measly 15 bucks when I went on vacation to Washington, D.C. I believe it was part of a holiday collection, and I grabbed it out of the sale bin the following spring. You can definitely see which shadows were part of my "signature look" with this palette- I would use the light matte brown in the crease, the bronze/cop...
