Review: Wet & Wild Cream Eyeliner & Mega Liner Liquid Liner

hey dolls... sorrie i didn't post anything yesterday.. this week was my midterm week so i was quite busy but now i'm on spring break finally!! haha.. well heres a quick review

Wet & Wild Cream Eyeliner

Price: $3.99
Where to buy: Rite Aid or any drugstore that carries wet&wild products
Staying Power: 10/10
Color pay-off: 9/10
Packaging: 8/10
Would I re-purchase: YES

So this is a good dupe for mac's black track as long as you use a good brush. It comes with a brush but it didn't work too well for me so I use sonia kashuk's bent eyeliner brush (perfect combo). It's pretty creamy & is good to use as a base. I would say it's also quite similar to L'oreal's HIP cream liner but its more than half the cost!
I got the black color & it comes out pretty dark but I usually line it with a liquid after anyways. I gave the packaging an 8 because it's kinda annoying to screw on & off because its cheap plastic...but it's $3.99... give it a break :)

On to the next,

Wet & Wild Mega Liner Liquid Liner

Price: $2.99
Where to buy: Rite Aid or any drugstore that carries wet&wild products
Staying Power: 10/10
Color pay-off: 10/10
Packaging: 8/10
Would I re-purchase: YES

This is a very good liquid liner... especially for the price! It is a brush tip applicator and you can easily make a thick or thin line with it. The color pay-off is great but it takes a second to dry so don't sneeze or do anything crazy as soon as you apply it.. lol.. yes i've sneezed after applying and had to take off all my makeup because of that >.<
The packaging is again an 8 because its cheap plastic & the rubber stopper which is suppose to grab all the excess product before the brush comes out, doesn't do it's job 100% but it still works!
Good dupe for sephora's long-lasting liquid liner (mentioned in my review below) especially if you don't want to spend more than $5.

Have you guys tried any of these yet? Wet & wild has some very good INEXPENSIVE products... love them~

Tips&Tricks: Long-Lasting Eyeliner?

Hi beauties.. so today I wanted to do a quick and easy tips&tricks picture tutorial on how to make your eyeliner last all day! No smudging, re-applying, or any hassle necessary. To me, eyeliner is such a key part of my look so it should be the one product that stays put all day.

I've been doing this for quite some time & its made quite a significant difference so try it out!


First, start off by priming your eyelids (I used UDPP Eden) & applying any eyeshadow (I just did a simple neutral look)


Then, line the outer half of your upper lash line with a bent eyeliner brush and a cream or gel eyeliner (i used Sonia Kashuk's bent eyeliner brush $5 & wet&wild's cream eyeliner $3.99)


Here's what it should look like so far...


Then, take your favorite liquid liner and line your entire upper lash line over the cream liner. (I'm using the sephora liquid liner $10)


And your finished!


Finished look


Apply some mascara & you'll be good to go! Not only does this trick really makes your eyeliner last long, it really makes the eyeliner color vibrant & as dark as possible. You could even do this with colored eyeliner by matching the same cream/gel liner color with it to make it more vibrant!

Let me know what you guys think or if you guys do this already!!
