Brunette Beauty

Packaging: This tube comes sandwiched between two hard jelly like sleeves which acts as a window and is stabilised with a surrounding black and silver cardboard frame. The film and short circular tube is what makes this special; a gunmetal brushed grey with black stars, Kat Von D's signature on the cap and the product name 'tattoo liner' in a larger font size. It has a spring loaded tension click on lid. This means it'll take a lot of effort for the lid to come off on it's own. The brush tip applicator is 1cm long ending to am 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 has a little weight to it and when you move the pen you can hear the metal ball inside. Compared to the standard packaging this is a bit more substantial overall. It feels heavier and is a bit longer and wider. Just subtle differences to empathise this limite...

Packaging: Short thumb width ball tube with small studs. It's topped with a KVD monogram on the top casing and the full sized version has this on the bullet. The casing snaps on securely. The mechanics are smooth and silver. Smell/Taste: Creme Brûlée. Colour: Homegirl - dark blackberry. Matte finish with medium to full pigmentation. Available in 39 shades. Formula/ Texture: The wax is thick and stiff. It did pull on the lips creating a patchy application. I don't know if this is because of the dark colour, but I did have to build multiple layers to achieve an even coverage. It does need a dark and anti-feathering lip liner. I feel like these would give a more even coverage too. It did take a specialised makeup remover to remove it entirely. I had a little bit of bleeding but slight transfers. Food and drink remove the colour completely from the centre of the lips leaving colour round the edge. The longevity for me is 3 hours. I didn't...

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 t...
