here it comes... my very first BRAND BATTLE!
*Heres how it works- Im going to review two similar products and compare them on price, quaility, qauntity etc...
COMMENT and let me know if you <3 this... or if you have any ideas for future BRAND BATTLES!
************************************************************************************
In one corner we have COVERGIRL liqulineblast eyeliner in brown
and in the other we have NYC Waterproof Eyeliner pencil in Smoky Plum (934A)
DISCLAIMER-Both of these eyeliners were bought with my own $ at a local CVS so these are my OWN ORIGINAL THOUGHTS about the products.
ABOUT COVERGIRL liquilineblast-
super smooth consistency- when applying this product it really does glide on like a liquid eyeliner
amount of product- while most eye pencils can be sharpened, this one is made of plastic, and no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to get it to twist up and push more product out, so Im guessing that what you see is what you get. Luckily, with this product a little goes a long way.something I dont like about this product is that it never really dries on your lid... it stays soft and smudgeable.
Its got this neato little smudger on the end, but unlike other COVERGIRL eyeliners, this one is made out of a rubber material. Its much easier to clean and can be used for other liners because of this.
the cost was about $10
ABOUT NYC Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil-
the actual eyeliner is just as smooth as its contender when the tip is not dried out, and It can be SHARPENED! the color is GORGEOUS, but I dont want to compare colors since I dont have this pencil in brown. I am always a little wary about waterproof products- because what do you wash your face with? (soap and WATER) I want to be able to get my makeup off when I want it to! I really didnt run into this problem though. The instructions on the pencil say to let it dry... I didnt really understand how you could let a solid dry, but it stays put pretty well!
The cost was about $4
One of my BIGGEST pet peeves about eyeliner is by 3 P.M. its running down my face, like any busy girl, I dont have time to worry about my eyeliner smudging. Lets do a smudge test. I put a line of both eyeliners on my hand, waited a few minutes to let each product dry... then swiped at them with my finger like what might happen if you had an itch your eyelid...(LEFT-NYC/RIGHT-COVERGIRL) While both liners might not be perfectly snudgeproof liquilneblast is almost wiped out... kind of a bummer!
So after rounds and rounds of testing and comparing, Im going to say that NYC Waterproof Eyeliner is the best BANG for your $
