Kat Von D Tattoo Liquid Eyeliner

-

Packaging:
Slim and short circular tub with a spring loaded tension click on lid. This means it'll take a lot of effort for the lid to come off. The tube is black with silver text and embellishment elements. The brush tip applicator is 1cm long ending to a extremely fine tip making it great for thin or thick lines. The tip is quite flexible meaning the brush hairs are rigid at the base and not likely to flare out. The pen itself is very lightweight and when you move the pen you can hear the metal ball inside.

Smell:
None.

Colour:
Tropper - intense black with a semi matte finish.

This is the only colour and has very intense pigmentation.

Formula/ Texture:
This is a thin and smooth liquid. It is very easy to apply either a thick or thin line using the tip or flat side and comes off with a basic makeup wipe. I do think it has a lot to do with the flexible tip and solid base. There is no skipping or dragging.

This doesn't smudge, run or fade throughout the day whether that's on top of eyeshadow or alone. Sephora's website claim this is waterproof and while running water won't smudge it, damp or wet liner with some pressure will. That's not something I would consider 'waterproof'. This lasts all day on me so I'm getting 8hrs wear out of it.

I am in love with this liquid eyeliner. I've never used a brush tip before but I'm surprised at how fine of a line I can get with this! Cat eye flicks are sharper then ever. If you have trouble with liquid eyeliner defiantly give this a try and you'll see how the line just flows. 

Available:
Only from Sephora stores, sephora.com for US$18 for 0.55ml/0.02fl.oz.

Packaging: Opaque white plastic squeeze tube with a twist off cap. The nib is fine and 2mm wide. The packaging has elements of green and brown to tie in with the organic line. It's defiantly durable and travel friendly. The cap has caused me some fussing when it hasn't twisted on evenly the first go. I like being able to cut the tube open to get every ounce of product out. Smell/Taste: None. Colour: White, blends out clear. Formula/ Texture: This is a thin and smooth lotion. It's easily applied and absorbed into the eye area without any greasy film or tackiness. The formula contains aloe vera, avocado, macadamia and rosehip oil meaning it's going to soothe, nourish and soften the eye area.  It defiantly hasn't caused any skin irritations or redness.  No sulphates, parabens, mineral oils, silicones, petrochemicals, synthetic fragrances or TEA's. The rosehip, olive, coconut and macadamia oils help reduce the appearance of fine li...

Packaging: Small clear tube with white screw lid with brush tip applicator. Smell: None. Colour: Ruby red colour. Light coverage/ sheer pigmentation with a natural finish. On the cheeks it is a lot more sheered out and is more pink looking. Texture/ Formula: This is a quite runny and thin. It absorbs and sinks into the skin quite quickly. So it must be applied onto one cheek at a time, blending it immediately. This is my first tint so I had a hard time adjusting to the application method as I ended up with blotches of tint that no powder could fix. A small amount goes a long way. I do use my fingers to apply this and the blending is easier then a brush. This does leave a slight stain on my fingertips. It does have an amazing longevity of 12hrs+, which is what a tint is known for. This can be increased more topped with a powd...

Benefit They're Real! Mascara

I got this sample size from The Champions of Bronze kit. Packaging: Shiny gunmetal wand handle with a gunmetal tube. The wand as long plastic bristles with a spiked ball at the end of it. This ball utilises the end of the mascara wand and reaches into the smaller lashes in the inner corner of the eye. Smell: Just the usual mascara smell. Colour: Black. Opaque pigmentation. Formula/ Texture: This is more of a wet mascara but with a really thin scraper that doesn't leave any clumps of mascara on the wand. It's a thinner wand which made applying it easy. I wasn't going through my lashes trying to separate my lashes and then add volume then back to separating a clump. Theres no flaking or transferring. It's is easily removed with makeup wipes. I have average length lashes that have a very slight natural curl to them, so I want a mascara that does it all- volume, length and curl. I always curl my lashes before mascara applicati...
