HG Eyeliner- Smashbox Photoangle Pure Pigment Gel Eyeliner

Ok Ladies,

That’s it. My search for my perfect eyeliner has ended. I have been testing out this eyeliner for a month now and I can delightfully say it has surpassed every single one of my expectations.

I also realized the primers that I had been using were never the issue. It as the eyeliner. If your eyeliner does not have the staying power that is required then, it can seriously mess up any eyshadow look you have no matter what.

I had walked into Sephora one day, and one of the sweet asian ladies that works there said, you might want to give the Smashbox eyeliner a go. It’s one that is highly underrated and no one really talks about. I went and looked up the reviews and they were all pretty bad, so being a wing liner kinda gal, I have had practice for about 3-4 years so I decided to just give it a go. The beauty advisor said it worked for her, so I said, why not.

And, from day 1, it never has smudged, or flaked, or run, or smeared. And, its a gel black matte color. Now, the shape of the nib is very, very similar to Benefit’s. But the application and product, I found are different. This one does not clump up and is extremely smooth. Plus, it has a beautiful matte finish. So,. what more could a girl want? 🙂

It does have a learning curve to using it, I admit. If you are a newbie to wing liner then  you may not liking using this pen at all. The key is to not click too much product at one go. But, the hassles of having a separate brush and cleaner have all gone. Granted, Smashbox was the last brand I thought I would find my HG liner in. Well, sometimes what doesn’t work for others works for you!

This eyeliner retails for $24 for just .03 oz. So, it is a bit expensive. But given that I do not have to buy two different eyeliners now.. I stocked up during the VIB sale.

You can find this at Sephora or Sephora.com

 

If you like it tell me how it is! If you didn’t tell me what you didn’t like about it.
