Overview of Past Eyeliners~

Yo~

So like a previous post Overview of Past Mascaras, I have decided to make one featuring eyeliners :D

Here we have (from left to right) Revlon Colorstay Pencil Eyeliner (black), Hard Candy Stroke of Gorgeous (nautical - tealish blue), ELF liquid liner (coffee), Maybelline Line Stiletto (brownish black), Physician's Formula Eye Booster Eyeliner (ultra black), and Physician's Formula Eye Booster Felt-tip (deep brown) 

Wow, that's quite a bit.  I also want to add that these liners are due to be thrown away (way older than 6 months...)  The swatches below are in the order I listed above.  You can see that Revlon isn't that pigmented and the ELF one is pretty streaky (the brush applicator sucks) Oh and the PF Eyeliner can look brown in some lighting but it's very dark :)

Physicians Formula Ultra-Hydrating Day & Night Cream

What it's supposed to do:

Helps to restore natural balance
- from dry dehydrated skin to more comfortable
- makes oily skin less prone to breakouts and shine

Gives healthy looking, hydrated skin that looks and feels softer and smoother no matter your age.

MASSIVE HAUL - Seattle/Portland Trip Part 2

 1. Nail Polishes - Sparkly Opaque White & Sparkly Red
2. Fold-able Stand Mirror - Floral Pattern
3. Rilakkuma Scented Highlighters - Pink, blue, and green
4. Girls' Generation "I Love You" Socks - I just HAD to get this.  I love Girls' Generation (aka SNSD) It's kind of strange though because the name is mirrored or backwards in the picture.

 1. ELF Contouring Blush & Bronzer - I haven't seen this in my local target so I got one in Portland where it's TAX FREE! Aw yeah.

3. Down to the Pore Blackhead Banishing Pore Strips - need new pore strips and got these cheaper with the Ulta sales (normal price 5.99 at Ulta)

5. Flower hair pin - pretty but the sparkles get all over the place

6. Formula 10.0.5 Seriously Shine Free Mattifying Oil-free Moisturizer - My skin gets really oily and I figured I try it out since I could get the pore strips cheaper with it. (6.99 at Ulta)

Overview of Past Mascaras

From left to right: NYX Doll Eye Long Lash Mascara, The Falsies Volume Express Waterproof Mascara, Physicians Formula Plentiful Mascara, ELF Regular & Waterproof Mascara Duo, and Rimmel Sexy Curves Full Body Mascara.

Over the past year, I began to use mascaras.  Yeah it's not too many but I've yet to find one that doesn't clump on me :(  I think the best out of this bunch would be the Rimmel Sexy Curves Full Body Mascara (Red tube) as it gave me length and some volume but was still clumpy and could not hold a curl on my thin, pinpoint straight lashes.  I also remember my first mascara (not listed) was actually one of the best I've used.  I remember it was a NYX mascara but I can't remember which one.  It definitely wasn't the Long Lash one...lol.  BTW For me, all these mascaras could not hold a curl....big bummer :(

NYX Doll Eye Long Lash Mascara: Overall Rating: 2/5 

It was okay...Not much to say, it did lengthen but was pretty clumpy.  Doesn't smudge for me though.

The Falsies Volume Express Waterproof Mascara: 2/5 

Same as above but was more clumpy.

Physicians Formula Plentiful Mascara: 3/5 

Gave me more volume than the others, somewhat lengthened, and didn't smudge.  I kind of like this one...haha

ELF Regular & Waterproof Mascara Duo: 1/5
This one was definitely the worst of the bunch.  It smudged and did not do anything! It was very clumpy too....I really dislike this mascara :( The only thing I thought was cool was that it's a duo...but still very bad performance.

Rimmel Sexy Curves Full Body Mascara: 3/5
Probably the best of the bunch.  Gave length and some volume.  It didn't smudge and had the least clumping but was still clumpy so I won't repurchase.

Do I recommend any? NOPE...gotta keep searching.  If you guys have any recommendations, please comment below :D
