Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner - Brown, Review! ♥

Konnichiwa Minna-san! I've got an amazing product to review today, the Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner. I got this from EBay but it was originally imported from Japan, i've heard so many good things about this eyeliner so I really wanted to try it out and review it for you guys! ♥

The packaging for this is super cute! It's also far easier to open than a lot of Western make-up, no need for scissors. The eyeliner itself is a felt tip liner with an extremely narrow tip, for me i'm personally not a fan of felt tip liners but this one works perfectly to create a sharp line.  

I love this brown shade! It's the exact shade that all brown eyeliners should be, not the weird brown/black combination that they usually are... The formula for this liner is really watery which some people may hate, especially if you prefer gel liners. However I find it really easy to work with and extremely pigmented for a low cost product.

I wore this eyeliner for 12-14 hours a few days ago, this includes going to work and going out later that night. The result was that the liner barely budged throughout the day and definitely didn't smudge.

Overall i'm thoroughly impressed with this, the quality plus the price make for a fantastic product within budget. Even though Dolly Wink is a Japanese brand it can be found easily on EBay and Yesstyle, I would try to aim for EBay though since the postage would be cheaper.

Step-By-Step Liquid Eyeliner Makeup Look - The Cat Eye!

 Konnichiwa Minna-san! I thought I would create a sort of step-by-step tutorial for liquid eyeliner, for those who find it awkward or a little intimidating. I will also be including a variety of liquid eyeliners that I recommend as well! 

1. Start from the center of the eye to estimate the thickness of the eyeliner band that you are looking for.   

2. Draw a steadily thinner line on the inner corner and do this in short flicks, instead of drawing the line all at once. This will reduce the chances of messing the line up.

3. Draw a line out to the outer corner of the eye and extend it into a sharp line as far as you want. This will be how far your cat eye will reach. Connect the line with another shorter line from the bottom outer corner of the eye. This will create a outline of a triangle with a blank spot in the middle.

4. Fill in the triangle and proceed to fix any mistakes or thicken the line more if you wish. After all this is only a small guide, after which you can play around with all types of styles and thicknesses.  

5. That's you finished! It can be hard to get used too, but after a while it will seem like second nature. 

Some people will find different applicators more easier to use than others, for people who are starting out I would recommend a sponge-tip as it can give you more control over your movements. However it mostly makes your lines quite thick, which can be an issue. Gel liner is very useful as a stepping stone between pencil and liquid liners, as the formula is a bit stiffer and easier to control. I personally find a thin hair-like applicator much easier as you can get the flicks very thin and precise.

Blue Pastel Dolly/Lolita Eyed Make-Up Look

Konbanwan Minna-san!

Today I have a make-up look for you inspired by Lolita and Dolly style make-up and clothing. This look is simple, quick and colourful making it the ideal spring dolly look. 

I used Too Faced Shadow Insurance and then applied a nude eye shadow colour, the same shade as my eyelid all the way up to the eye crease. After this I applied a pastel blue eye shadow colour on the outer corners and blended this with the nude colour to blur out the edges and make the who look smooth. 

After this I applied a white colour above the blue as a form of highlight due to how pale I am, and then proceeded with eyeliner. I used my Urban Decay 24/7 Liquid Liner in Perversion as it is the blackest eyeliner that I've ever used. I then applied mascara and false lashes from Eyelure. For my water line I applied Make-Up Revolution's Eye Brightener mixed with white eyeliner from MUA. 

For my face I applied Skin79 VIP Gold BB Cream and Estee Lauder in Peach Passion. My highlight is from MUA and my lip colour is Lime Crime Velvetine - Suedeberry mixed with Hawaiian Tropic lip gloss - Island Berry. 

I hope you all like this look I created and there will be many more in the future as well.

Make-Up Revolution @ Superdrug - Flick, Thick and Thin Eyeliner

Hello Minna-san!!

Earlier this week I wrote a first impressions review on the Make-Up Revolution Flick, Thick and Thin Eyeliner, which I was initially very impressed with as it is a two in one felt tip liner.

Despite the thick and thin aspect of the pen, the thin tip is not very thin at all. Well that being said it is probably my personal preference as I use a hair-like brush for my liquid liner.

We already know that this type of eyeliner isn't waterproof... at all. It is very easily smudges so I thought I would try out the longevity of the liner over a 10hour period.   

First Applied @ 1pm.


















Before Taking The Eyeliner Off @ 10pm.


















Over the course of the ten hours the eyeliner wasn't particularly a problem, except for the smudging in the outer courners and a slight shadow in the crease area from transferring. If you aren't too bothered about your eyeliner being slightly smudgy after a long period of time then I would recommend this as it was only £2.50.

Make-Up Revolution @ Superdrug. Liquid Eyeliner & Inner Eye Brightening Liner Review.

Ohayou Minna-san! Today I have a double review for a new brand that has came out for Superdrug in the UK, and it is called Make-up Revolution!

My first purchase is the Eyeliner Flick Thick & Thin which I bought to replace my old black liquid liner. I was surprised by the quality of this eyeliner considering the amazing price... wow... The black is very opaque with just one stroke. However despite the positives it is definitely not a waterproof product and should be worn on a very dry day, due to this I believe it would be a tricky product for those with oily eyelids. 

Rating: 7/10 - Good for the price, Not budge proof.

Price: £3.50 

  

I have been looking for a cheap inner eyeliner for months as I refuse to pay tons for pencil eyeliners. This is a super cheap alternative to all of the expensive eye brighteners on the market. The colour really brightens the water line and unlike the liquid liner above, this doesn't budge at all. Depending on your skin tone this will be more effective or less effective, personally I have pretty pale skin, which can be seen in the photo above and it does wonders on my eyes

Rating: 10/10 - Amazing inexpensive product, Really does the job, Lasts all day.

Price: £2.50
