Hello folks! I’ve been sick for almost an entire week and a real busy time at work and as a result neglected my blog quite a bit this month. but my schedule’s clearing up and I feel well rested and charged!
So a few weeks back I got the Maybelline Hyper Glossy Runway Pop Liquid Liner from the PR company. (That is seriously one heck of a long name).
It’s a ranged coloured liquid liners and I’ll be reviewing the one in the shade Tangerine Orange!
I don’t own anything this bright, it puts all the bright orange lipsticks to shame! It’s a gorgeous true orange colour. It’s more yellow then orange and shows up real nice on the skin.
The handle is very...

The heat is killing me! I wish the monsoons were here already! Everytime I see a speck of a grey cloud, I get my hopes up…
I don’t use glitter liners too often but I always pair them with a base since they don’t tend to be very pigmented either. Stila’s Silver Lilac is such a gorgeous shade with a unique mix of lilac, blue and silver glitter. The glitter itself isn’t very coarse and doesn’t feel heavy when applied on the lid. The concentration isn’t dense when applied sparingly. You do need to go over it twice to make it prominent.
It glides very easily and then stays put for hours. I had worn this for over 6 hours and there was no fall out or...

I generally find that Benefit is a very overpriced brand with products you can find dupes for. But the liquid liner is a different story (for me). I have a very unsteady hand and using liquid liners scares me. The line becomes crooked, it bleeds, its isn’t too black etc etc. But what I really liked about Benefit’s magic ink liner is that it stayed in place, it lasted long, it looked resonably wet and didn’t dry up into pieces. Along with that, I love the packaging and the long slim handle. It makes a clumsy person like me with applying liquid liners with ease and accuracy.
Magic Ink is jet black in colour. When applied, it feels cool, smooth and not very heavy. I has a...
