NEW EYELINER

BOBBI BROWN $24
New eyeliner from BB- Perfectly Defined Gel Eyeliner. Comes in 6 different colors: 
- Chocolate Truffle: a rich brown
- Pitch Black: the blackest black
- Sapphire: a rich navy
- Scotch: a gold bronze with shimmer
- Steel Grey: a grey with subtle shimmer
- Violet Night: a black purple with shimmer

All the colors sound really pretty and wearable in my opinion. I'll probably be trying the chocolate truffle, because I'm kinda obsessed with brown liners right now. 

Supposedly this pencil is sweat and humidity resistant, but I'll be the judge of that.

According to BobbiBrown.com, the "Perfectly Defined Gel Eyeliner" is the, "Portable Pencil Version Of Our #1 Selling Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner." hmmmmm... Is it really? As opposed to the "Long Wear Eye Pencil" that is, "for those who want the benefits of Bobbi's Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in pencil form.So does this mean that BB makes 3 versions of their gel liner: original, pencil, and twist up? I don't understand it, but i'm a sucker so i'll probably end up trying it. Don't judge me... LOL

YOU SUCK!

THE SUCKIEST LIQUID LINER EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

SEPHORA $23 

SERIOUSLY THE WORST LIQUID LINER I HAVE EVER USED!

According to sephora.com with my comments in red:
What it is:
A waterproof liquid eyeliner (NOPE- COMES OFF EASILY WITH Q-TIP AND WATER) for intense non-stop color. 

What it does:
Rich in polymers, this superior eyeliner offers an impeccable hold that guarantees water-, tear-, and smudge-proof color (SMUDGE PROOF, MAYBE. DOESNT REALLY SMUDGE, BUT FLAKES OFF SO YOU HAVE BLACK SPECKS ALL OVER THE TOP OF YOUR CHEEKS WHICH IS EQUALLY SUCKY). Its ergonomic, foam-tip applicator is designed to resemble a makeup brush handle for the quickest, easiest, and most accurate application (AND HARD AS HELL AND KINDA HURTS YOUR LID WHEN APPLYING MULTIPLE LAYERS)

What else you need to know:
Waterproof, highly pigmented, and smudge-proof, the Aqua collection of long-lasting lip and eye colors was created for the Parisian Aquatic Ballet. Tested under water for five hours, Make Up For Ever’s longest wearing makeup has an extensive palette of high-performance colors with non-stop results. This product is fragrance free and ophthalmologist tested. BLAH BLAH BLAH STILL SUCKS


Ok, sorry for the lack of vocabulary, but seriously the only word I can think of this moment is "sucks". I do not recommend this product at all!

Make Up Forever Aqua Rouge

Sephora $24
Per Sephora:

What it is:
A liquid lip color that provides the intense and long-lasting hold of a lip stain with the eye-catching shine of a gloss.

What it does:
Formulated with a combination of high molecular weight polymers and volatile oils, Aqua Rouge locks color on the lips for a smudge-proof result that will not transfer or fade. Its intensely pigmented formula provides immediate, opaque color with extreme shine, and its creamy, non-sticky texture glides effortlessly on the lips for comfortable wear.

What else you need to know:
Aqua Rouge’s double-ended packaging allows for a simple, two-step application: apply lip color with precision using the ergonomic, foam applicator and evenly distribute the clear top with the polyester brush to lock the color onto the lips. 

Suggested Usage:
-For best results, line and fill in the lips with Aqua Lip. Apply Aqua Rouge color to the center of the lips and blend outward.
-Finish with Aqua Rouge clear top coat for a lacquered effect.


I'm very interested in a lip product that lasts all day without touch ups.  I'm not one to reapply because of my chronic laziness so I am very eager to test this out. Sephora at Memorial City Mall has a set with 6 colors on sale for $98! This set is sold out online and originally costs $140. This is an amazing deal, as the set includes:

Six Full Size Aqua Rouges with coordinating Lip Liners:
1. 16 Fuchsia
2. 18 Coral
3. 2 Rosewood
4. 14 Light Rosewood
5. 10 Raspberry
6. 8 Red

$98 for 12 full size products! That's a steal! If you're thinking about scooping it up, you need to hurry.  It looked like there were only 5 boxes left. They're located at the cash register area, just FYI.
