I HAVE SINNED.
i bought a pair of shoes yesterday. and was tempted to buy another pair. but i didn’t get the latter pair. thing is, right now i’m regretting the first pair. i love it very much and all, but i realized it’s not really what i REALLY NEED at this moment in time. at this moment in time, i really need a comfortable pair of flats (which are not too flat) or a comfortable pair of heels. maybe wedges, or those not too tall. so i wouldn’t feel like i’m towering over everyone. not a great feeling yo.
i also bought a liquid eyeliner yesterday. i’ve always had faith in Revlon eyeliners. i’ve used their liquid eyeliner and (automatic) pencil eyeliner before, and both tend to smudge less throughout the day, compared to/with other brand eyeliners.
okay digressing, i said “compared to/with” because i can never remember which is for which purpose. i literally have to google it each time i need to use it in assignments. but right now… CBF.
back to topic at hand, okay so i purchased a..well, Revlon liquid eyeliner in a felt-tip applicator thingamajig. swatches were so awesome! literally lasts forever. okay just so you know what i’m talking about, here are some pictures:
the one i just bought!
the original liquid one.
the pencil one.
so i tried the new thingy out when i got home – okay it’s called Revlon Colorstay Liquid Eye Pen. but then i had to do some chores after. it lasts through sweaty chores yo! then i took a shower, having had to attend a family/church dinner and a little birthday gathering after (I LOVE YOU ERICA MAK). eyeliner on. for some reason there were smudges at the end of the..well, alco session. a little on the top and a little on the bottom. can’t say it was my mascara, it usually lasts longer than that. could be the eyeliner. then again, at that point i’ve had the eyeliner on for 6 hours when it started to show signs of smudging.
still, i was shocked to see smudges, because you know, liquid eyeliners shouldn’t. at least i don’t expect them to. the first Revlon liquid eyeliner i had lasted longer than that. then again application is easier with this felt-tip thingy. so…guess you can’t get the best of both worlds. the original one lasts forever but could be intimidating to use (since it’s the usual nylon brush), this felt-tip one is so easy to use but doesn’t last as long, but while it lasts it looks so awesome – perfectly defined, and a very intense black! but it definitely lasts longer than the pencil one, i must say.
in a nutshell, i think this eyeliner’s great for those wanting to switch from pencil/kohl to liquid eyeliners. the applicator is quite amazing! compared to/with other brands. some of them are either too watery, taking forever to dry. others have tips that are too soft, making it easier to make mistakes. that sucks yo.
so yeah. the only complaint i have is that it doesn’t last more than 6 hours or so. but since it looks amazing while it lasts, i can’t really say much. at only RM35… <3
p.s. i’ll further update if i change my mind about this eyeliner.
p.p.s. really wanted to post a picture of the shoes i bought, but i can’t seem to find it on the brand’s website. it must be that out of season! shall post it if i do wear ‘em and happen to take a picture. meanwhile, i really do need to shop. while we’re at it, i also really need funds. WHAII =S
