IN2IT Waterproof Gel Liner in Dark Brown

Hi. This product I'll be reviewing is actually my sister's. When she goes to school, the one thing she can't forget to put on is eyeliner. But one time, she asked me to look for an eyeliner that won't make her look like she's a panda by the end of the day. She also doesn't like anything that requires a brush so potted gel liners and liquids are a no-go.

After taking swatches of a lot of pen/pencil eyeliners, I came across this IN2IT Waterproof Gel Liner in Dark Brown.




The claims of the product.
Priced at around 380. But they have this 2 pcs for 500 promo. I don't know though if it's still up.





Pros:
1. Creamy and very pigmented
2. Very cute looking pencil design
3. Comes with a sharpener and it's also easy to sharpen because it's not your usual pencil material. It's sort of like a plastic
4. Really smudge-proof and waterproof after drying. The waterproof though only if it you run it through water but if you wet it then rub it, it'll come off.

Cons: 
1. If you want a really thin line, you probably won't be able to use this because it doesn't get sharpened and become really pointed. When you over sharpen it, it breaks. I suggest using an angled brush and running it through the tip
2. I find it quite pricey for an eyeliner, given the amount of product it has.

Have you tried this one? Lemme know. Cheerio!

September 2012 Hit-listers

Hi. Before I go to bed, here's my top ten items for September, as I promised in my last entry. I'm hoping to make this a short entry. =)


Here's their group shot. =) 



Marionnaud Dual Ended Eye Brush- I use this for doing my brows, separating my lashes, and applying gel eyeliner. So versatile



Alba Botanica Acnedote Astringent- I've mentioned here how this helped me a lot with my acne problems. It's organic and works wonders


Zen Zest Body Spray in Talc- My mom gave me this and it smells so good. It smells like baby powder. Requires constant spraying though 


Tony Moly Party Lover Gel Liner - I've reviewed it here. It's my first gel liner and so far my favorite. Doesn't smudge at all


Flat Top Brush- This brush from Trinoma works best with anything-cream, liquid, or powder products


Maybelline Baby Lips in Menthol- I'm a loyal Blistex user, but this works just as well and it smells a bit better. (Given by my sister)


Etude House Silk Scarf Hair Serum - My savior from bad curly hair days. It used to be my sister's.


Loreal Kohl Contour Pencil- This was my mom's and it's just so creamy that I use it for my brows or for lining my eyes


Face Shop Face it Pure Color Lip Gloss- This used to be my mom's but when I ran out of my E.L.F. lip gloss, I asked for this. It smells so great that it's addicting 


4u2 dreamGirl Lovelight BB Powder- This one in the picture is my 2nd compact. I love this powder because it lasts long on my oily skin. Reviewed here

What were your favorite items for September? Lemme know. Cheerio!

Tony Moly Party Lover Gel Eyeliner in Pearl Navy (#4)

Hi guys. The rain is craaazzyyyy! Anyway, I promised you guys a review of this gel eyeliner that I bought from Ms. Charmaine of Kkochipida (check her website) She's got tons of Korean cosmetics and she sells them at reasonable prices. Haven of Korean cosmetics, I tell you. Plus, Ms. Charmaine is really friendly. I ask her so many questions, but she never fails to answer. =)

Anyway, I found this Tony Moly Party Lover Gel Eyeliner in Pearl Navy on her site, and it was on sale! So, I immediately sent her message to see if it was still available.






It has about 7 colors I think. At least those I that I saw, but I got this one because I wasn't sure if the rest were still available and if they were also on sale. Anyway, navy blue is a good color. I'm not sure how much product there is but I got this for 195 bucks (no shipping fee because Ms. Charmaine was thoughtful enough to squeeze me in on her trip to Trinoma for a meet-up)

Tony Moly Regular Price:348 bucks (Update: actually it 448 Php, so sorry)




Sorry, I kinda tried it out before I had the chance to take pictures


Pros:
1. Glides on smoothly and easily
2. Very, very, very pigmented
3. Great staying power
4. No smudging witnessed
5. As tested, water proof
6. I also like that it has a bit of sparkle so it's not a flat navy blue color

Cons:
None really. But was wearing this one time when I accidentally did a walking marathon under the heat of the sun. I was totally sweating like crazy and went I got home, I noticed that a very, very little eyeliner was transferred to my crease. But since I don't think I would do that walking thing again with eyeliner anyway so, still no peeves here.

BEAUTY TRICK: I learned this from one of my favorite Korean beauty/fashion shows Style Show Fiㄹ (I don't know if it's still airing though and I can't remember if it's Son Dae Shik or Park Tae Yoon who taught it) but one of these make up artists said that to use a gel eyeliner, it helps to put some on your brush for one eye, turn the container upside down, put on the liner, and repeat. Gel eyeliners dry out so easily but it's so taxing to keep screwing on the cap just to keep it from drying out, so just turn it upside down whenever your using it. Same principle, minus the extra work.

I really really like this gel eyeliner. Though it's the first gel one I've tried, I'm absolutely loving it, especially because it stays on all day.

Anyway, keep safe and dry guys. Cheerio!

Look What I Bought #1

Hi guys. Just a quick post here to show you what I bought last week. It was my very first time to try online shopping, and I must say, maybe I should try not to get too excited 'cause I'll definitely end up spending way too much. Anyway, here's a quick view of the things I got












The Saem Ally's Ajell Mousse BB Cream (245 bucks plus 50 for the sf) and the Tony Moly Party Lover Gel Eyeliner (195 bucks) I got from Ms. Charmaine of Kkochipida (check her Multiply account here and her Facebook account here) I actually got to meet her because of the Tony Moly Gel liner. She just happened to be near our area (Trinoma), so it was a great opportunity. She's very lovely,and she's very nice. The transactions I made were a breeze. The mouse BB got delivered about two days after I made the payment. Plus, her products are very affordable and most products have prices that are way lower than what we have here. So, if you're into Korean cosmetics like me, check her site out. =)


Anyhow, the Ever Bilena Eyebrow pencil (50 pesos) and the fruit nail decorations (29.75) were from Landmark, but my mom paid for them. Funny what "pleading eyes" can do. =)


I decided not to take pictures of the pair of pants and belt that I got from For Me. They were both on super sale. The pants were priced at 998 but I got them for 298 and the belt was at 298 but I got it for 88. I just got lucky. =)


I promise to do reviews on these products as soon as I get the chance. What about you, any hauls? Cheerio!
