Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Liner VS. Rimmel Glam Eyes Professional Liquid Liner
Monday, May 04, 2015Hello everyone! Thank you for the time you are taking to read my blog.
I am writing a review today on two different liquid liners - high end and drugstore. I use both, but I do have different opinions and impressions of each product.
The Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Liner is considered a 'high end' liner, and can be purchased from Mecca for $26.00. I love Stila as a brand! I use the Stay All Day foundation and the One Step Correct Primer, and obviously the liner in 'Intense Black'. Unfortunately, I am not the biggest fan of this eyeliner, mainly for two reasons: I prefer complete matte eyeliner and its also very wet- meaning that it can be hard to apply and you have to let it dry before continuing on with other eye makeup (if need be). When the product does dry, it doesn't completely dry to a black matte, more of just a shiny black. This is personal preference, and while it isn't a big deal, I just prefer a matte eyeliner. I do love the size of the brush/point however, as it is the perfect size to create a thin or thick eyeliner, wing or no wing. It is also in the form of a 'Texta' or a pen, so you can hold it comfortably to draw on the product - I do personally prefer this form of eyeliner. And while this liner is waterproof (which it very much is!) it's quite easy to remove with a cleanser or makeup remover - which is great!
The Rimmel Glam Eyes Professional Liquid Liner is a drugstore product, and can be purchased from a pharmacy such as Priceline, or a supermarket such as Coles, for approximately $10 - $12; depending on where you purchase. I don't particularly use Rimmel very often, so I have little experience, although I did love the Wake Me Up Concealer. I own the liner in 001 'Black Glamour' and it is in the form of a typical liquid liner, a little stick/brush that twists out of the tube that contains the actual liquid. This product is also very wet, and the brush is VERY thin! It is extremely difficult to apply as there is no control over the brush or stick, and it is easy to mess up, so I wouldn't recommend this eyeliner for beginners! There is not much I particularly LOVE about this product, however it does dry quickly and whilst, again, it is not matte, it dries to a very intense black. This product is also easy to remove, as it is not waterproof nor matte, so it just slides straight off with makeup remover.
Out of both products, I probably prefer the Stila liner, as it is just a better quality product. Another liner that is great to use, and also easy for beginners, is the Maybelline Master Precise, which is also in the form of a 'Texta' or pen, but dries as a mate formula (however, it is pretty drying).
If you have any experiences with these eyeliners, let me know in the comments what your personal opinion is! :) Remember, as I write this blogpost, this is my impression, opinion and personal experiences with the product. I am in no place to tell people what to buy and what to reject, but am just giving advice for those who are seeking for it.
Thanks again for reading! Hope you enjoyed.
