Maybelline Eyestudio Lasting Gel Liner Review



It's been a while, I started Blogging with my love for GEL Liners, in fact, I reviewed so many gel liners I can't keep track how many in total!  All I know is that, I've always been a fan of these brands when it comes to gel liners ---


  • Stila Smudgepots
  • Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Liner
  • MAC Pro Fluidline
Yes, mostly on the pricier range.  Because gel liners are tricky, they could really make OR break a look and I don't want to even TRY to use other brands especially on my clients.

But, that doesn't mean I don't try drugstore brands, in fact, I tried a LOT of gel liners from brands like Revlon, Coastal Scents and a whole lot more!

Today, I am finally reviewing another drugstore brand, this has been sitting on my "to review" basket for the longest time and I only get to really try this out when I found myself ready to wear gel once again!  Because for the year 2018 - it was all liquid liner!

The most intense line for lasting drama. Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner holds highly concentrated pigments in a clear gel base, so color is more intense and lines resist wear for 24 hours.

Benefits:

  • Ophthalmologist tested
  • Safe for sensitive eyes
  • Contact lens safe
  • 24 hour wear
  • Smudge-proof and waterproof
  • Intense color from highly concentrated pigments

CLIO Kill Cover Glow Cushion Review



Whenever I see the "Kill Cover" line from CLIO... I always have the BlackPink music on top of my head: "Let's Kill This Love...da da da da..rampapapapa"

Well obviously, my first statement is totally OUT of the topic on what I'm supposed to write here but you know me..there's always something crazy going inside my head I just had to let it out.

So back to this topic, I recently got the CLIO Kill Cover Glow Cushion and because it says GLOW, I pushed aside all my cushion (even my favorite AprilSkin Magic Snow Cushion) to give way to this glowing product.

Sun radiance added to the Kill Cover’s high coverage for a perfected, healthy and illuminant complexion that glows

There are a total of 5 shades and I got shade 4 which is GINGER.  I am glad CLIO came something with not just 2-3 shades but 5!  Although the darkest shade isn't really dark so not for users with darker complexion.

Make Up Factory Smoky Liner review



Make Up Factory has been quiet for quite some time but that does not stop your resident AMW to keep on priving on various brands to let you know the good and the bad!

I recently got myself Make Up Factory's Smoky Liner because I am looking for a waterproof eyeliner that works for our country!  I mean, I haven't used pencil liners for so long because most of them always smudge and smear on me! 

So how does this fair?

Because this product is Paraben free and fragrance free, I picked this up and gave this a test.  One swatch said it all (I'll show you swatch after the jump) but what excites me more is the presence of the brush which is meant to brush the "line" you created to look more natural.

Waterproof, long-adhering liner with a brush for blending.
The Smoky Liner is a new eyeliner with an integrated brush at the end. With a brush made from high-quality synthetic fibres, the blending can be done to look professional. Because of its pleasantly soft and delicate wax-based creamy texture, it can be evenly applied, creating intense colors. Perfectly suited to achieve soft and smoky effects, ideal for the Smoky Eyes Look. The liner dries quickly and once dry, it will be smudge and water proof. As a result, the liner provides long-wearing eye make up. Free of perfumes and paraben.

My Initial Thoughts on Maybelline Sensational Liquid Matte Lip & Cheek Tints + Follow Up



I did an Unboxing on the newest Maybelline Sensational Liquid Matte lip & Cheek Tints and since I have a very busy schedule and I want you guys to see what the buzz is all about fast!  I re-uploaded my #AMWIGstories on my unboxing and I will follow up with my thoughts on these new products!


Maybelline Sensational Liquid Matte Lip & Cheek Tints
Php219.00
Shades: Birthday Suit On, Best Babe, Easy Berry, 
Sensationally Me, Soft Wine and Truly MLBB


I've said it on video and I will mention it again, as much as it is tempting to compare these to the Maybelline Super Stay Matte Ink, I won't because they are different like cousins!  If you ask me in a whim, I'll still pick the latter because for so many reasons!  But let's talk about the Sensational Liquid mattes first before I talk about other stuff!

Maybelline says ---
The Sensational Liquid Matte Lip Tint is formulated with a powder technology for a weightless wear and packed with pigments for intense color.  Available in 10 Soft Matte Shades (but only 6 are released even at LazMall as of the moment!)
