on my last post about bbia auto gel eyeliner, i've mentioned that i also requested the last water eyeliner. actually i made a mistake.. i wanted the pen eyeliner, but i end up asking about the last water one which is a liquid eyeliner. oh well, since my sisters already gave me that, i have to learn how to use liquid eyeliner again.. something that's already forgotten since having kids equal not having enough time to apply proper makeup.

okay.. this is the description from koreadepart: liquid eyeliner with light formulation like water. felt tip brush can be used easily even for beginners. waterproof type for oily skin. excellent fitting that does not smudge by friction, easy cleansing with wash off type.
again, i wish the color options are more than black and chocolate.. perhaps navy or deep purple.. but they do have tears, which is silverish or white glittery? which is uncommon in western brands, but probably will be famous for eastern region since they are big about sparkly eyeliner under the iris to make the eyes look bigger.

the packaging: it comes in a black box. the eyeliner comes in a tube version, so you have to twist the cap to take out the wand. the wand is quite long, as usual like any other eyeliner. the brush is stiff. i think it's stiffer than revlon's, but i can't say for sure since it's been awhile since my last liquid liner. although they say that it's a felt tip, but i don't think it is. anyway, the brush can make thin to thick line, but it needs practice. just like any other liquid eyeliner.

the color: mine is black, and it surely is deep black. it's very black from the first swipe. so you have to be careful. any mistakes can be easily seen.

the durability: i have oily eyelid, and i have tried it without any base, with base, over eyeshadow, and stuff. and so far, it works really well. it can stay for about 3-4 hours without crumbling.

the result: i have to say this is as dark as it can be for a black eyeliner. although it's liquid, i can still use it even though i might say that i'm out of practice from using liquid eyeliner. but it's easy to master this. so i guess the saying that it's suitable for beginner is true. and yes, being super black equals slightly hard to wipe off. although i can wipe this off with cleansing oil, but sometimes i still can see several flakes from this eyeliner. so better use separate eye makeup remover to completely clean this off.

so, even though i completely satisfy with this eyeliner, i have to say i probably won't purchase it again. first, because it takes time to use this. and it's hard to erase. okay slightly harder, but still i need to wipe off my makeup in a flash, and this doesn't fall into that category. will i recommend? if you like liquid eyeliner that is easy to use, then buy this. it is super black, so it's perfect for dramatic eye makeup look. but if you're not into liquid eyeliner, then don't buy it. simple as that.

the color payoff: it's very vivid, vibrant color in just one stroke. pretty impressive. not one streak.. my latest loreal gel eyeliner, one of them is dry so it gives me streak line when being applied. but this one.. both of them are soft and glide on my skin easily.

the staying power: it takes time to set to dry, but just a couple of minutes, after that, no transferring whatsoever, even on my oily eyelid. but make sure you use eyelid primer for longer staying power. if you have hooded lid, make sure you don't blink or it will transfer on your upper eyelid.

the product: it's soft gel eyeliner, softer than loreal one. so it will blunt easily. so you will need to sharpen it if you want to get thinner line.

the result: a bold color that stays for a decent time, won't transfer after being dried completely. you can use it on your waterline without irritate your eyes, but i can feel my waterline a bit dry after a couple hours. so if you have sensitive eyes or using eye lenses, probably it will irritate you. so use with caution. as for the line, since it can blunt easily, it can't product thin lines like liquid liner, though you have sharpen it. you can make it slightly winged, but not a perfect cat eye though.

for me, it's perfect for daily use to tightline or just regular eyeliner. easy to use and good staying power. a bit drying for waterline though. but if you're more a cat eye person, you might want to skip it since it will be hard to draw perfect cat eye with it. with a good selection of shades perfect for everyday use from black to burgundy, i think everyone will have one for themselves (though i'm still hoping there's a navy in its selection). price wise, it's not that expensive.. so give it a try..
