Stila All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner Review

If you've been interested on anything related to beauty for awhile, you may have heard of this product circling around most beauty guru's holy grail list. I got this last month and decided to finally to a review about it since I have tested it for quite some time already.

Item Description: (Copied from Stila's Website)

Finally, a waterproof liquid liner that glides on with ease, won't smudge or run, and stays in place until you say when! The thin marker-like tip is easy to use even for the least experienced, and delivers a defined thin line to a dramatic bold line with precision.

Goes on smoothly without skipping, smudging, or pulling, and lasts all day! 

Key Benefits:

• Waterproof and easy-to-use
• Goes on smoothly without skipping
• Lasts all day long!

Shades: Intense Black Dark Brown Indigo Alloy Moss

NEW! 10 Spring 2014 shades available! Midnight Snow Periwinkle Turquoise Cobalt Olive Amber Emerald Paradise Pink Teal

Price and where did I buy it: 
P745 ($16.03 USD) at Rustan's Shangri-La. Click HERE to see what else I got during the time I bought this.

What do I think of this product?

I do admit that while I was trying it, I was afraid of the brush itself. It is a felt tip liner, quite soft that I thought if I use this, I'll surely make a mess. I was used to using a dip brush and pens that isn't this soft so it was really a surprise for me that this is easier to use because of the control I have over where it goes and the precision of the brush is perfection. It dries out fast and you have about less than a minute to fix the mistakes if you did any. It isn't completely matte and not shiny. I usually don't fill in the inner corners because of how hard it is, but when I did attempt to do it using this eyeliner, it was really easy. 

Is it worth the money?

Yeap, definitely lives up to it's hype too. I would recommend this for beginners because of how I described the brush, it is perfect for on-the go everyday use. I haven't tried the other colors yet but what I have is black and indeed, it is very black, very opaque and I won't have to worry about reapplying it later on since it survives my constant sweating. Not a cheap eyeliner but since you'll most likely finish this up and only have to apply it once everyday (if you wanna wear it everyday) then I think it's a good investment. 

Wearing it here!

So that is it for this review. I now have 2 products from Stila and the other one would be my Stila All Day Liquid Lipstick in Patina (if you wanna read my review all about it, click HERE) and so far, I am not disappointed. I'm actually looking forward for a new product to try out from this line so if you have any suggestions for me to try, do leave a comment down below or even if you have any more further questions, I'll be sure to reply as soon as I see it. 

I hope that this has helped if you are looking to try out this product. And ps: I just realized I dreamed of this exact moment, and yeap, I dreamt that I was making a blog post and the ones I typed above are what I dreamed about. It should've felt creepy but I'm actually excited about it haha!

Review: Benefit Roller Lash.

Heeeey guys! I'm back with a new review and this time it is all about Benefit's Roller Lash. This product was one of my 1st ever purchase at Benefit ( I know I'm pretty late). The reason I decided to finally get this one is because of all the hype everybody has been giving it. Whether they'll feature it on their favorites or their empties post that convinced me to say "Okay I'll try it". So now, here we are!

Disclaimer:

Honestly, I am not a makeup professional just yet, I just really love makeup and as you guys may know, I am working on my journey to beauty and as a, I wouldn't really say a "beginner" but somewhere in between, I tend to experiment and make a ton of mistakes along the way while having fun and learning new techniques.

Item Description:

It's a roller for lashes! The eye opening Hook' n' Roll brush grabs, saparates, lifts and curls.. while the instant curve-setting formula holds for 12 hours. 

97% said it visibly lifts lashes, 87% said it gives long-lasting curl, 94% said eyes look more wide open.

Price: P1,300. I bought mine at Rustan's Shangri-La.

How to use:

Left eye no mascara, right eye using the roller lash.

From the base of your lashes, wiggle the wand until you reach the tip, I did this the wrong way and ended up having some clumps so be sure to grab the eyelash and wiggle it!

 Do repeat as necessary, Mine took 1 application to have visible curls, but I wanted them to be more curled so I did another coat and this is the result: 

What I think of this product:

1 application.

clean or no mascara.

I'm actually really happy with the way it turned out, You could see my eye on the left that I didn't apply any mascara there and on the right I used 2 applications of this mascara, No eye curler used.

I naturally have long but straight (almost like a hood) eyelashes. Usually it takes me quite awhile to just get my eyelashes to curl and with this product, I actually managed to curl it in an instant. I also tried this out while I was doing the groceries, and unlike my other mascaras, I didn't have to worry about this product smudging or having its effect fade. 

I recommend this for girls who are on-the-go. The brush of this product prevents it from grabbing too much product that tends to wear down your lashes.

Will I repurchase? Yes I will, I love it so much! I also read from the instructions that this works best with combining it with they're real mascara. Mainly, apply this roller lash mascara first then follow it up with the they're real mascara. So I guess I will be investing in that too. 

SO, I guess that's it for this product. I could literally go on and on about this but I wanted to keep it as short as possible, which I think I didn't do good on that, but anyway, I hope this post has been helpful if you are looking to purchase this or if you just wanted to see what the fuss was about.Share it or +1 or comment below if you guys have other techniques or tips about this mascara and if you have suggestions for other makeup for me to try.

Until the next blog!
