If you've watched any of my tutorials, you will know that my favourite eyeliner is, by far, liquid eyeliner. I absolutely love how striking it can be with it's various styles and ways of applying it. Over time, I have explored several types of liquid eyeliners, all of which I will be reviewing but this has got to be my all time favourite. Let me begin with a little advice, I was given this product because it was originally thought to be broken and with some thorough fiddling and loads of shaking it up, it created a beautiful thick black line. So before writing it off, be sure to shake it up, do some twisting and enjoy every bit of this amazing product. There are many reasons why I chose this for my all-time list! Unlike competing products which share common qualities this tip is made up of several, firm bristles better known as an applicator brush, forming a sharp point while the other products are made up of a felt tip, soaked in liner. This product also allows for you to choose when more liquid liner is needed with it's twisting ability. I love "pen" liners as I feel more in control, but with this unique tip I feel that I am able to do more styles than with others. You can start with a really thin line for day looks or build it up to create exaggerated and bold looks. One thing which I struggle with usually, is the flip at the end, but with this tip, I handle each curve effortlessly! It takes some adjusting when going from the other products on the market, as the brush is something new to get used to and you can overdo the twisting motion and make a mess with too much liner. But with a little practice, you will never look back! I understand that this product, because of the branding, will be priced a lot higher than others on the market, which can start from R20, but I feel that the extra expense is well worth it, as this does not dry out and you have more freedom. The applicator doesn't get damaged with several uses either, in my books - that is a HUGE plus! And the greatest advantage of all is that this product does not crumb, peel or smudge -it is beautiful with it's long lasting capabilities, even in this humidity!
