Super Cute Polka Dot Packaging! ^^ |
Now, before I get into more detail for this review, I have to say I was tempted to buy this, after reading and watching all the raving reviews on it.
Having used the liner enough to review it personally, I admit I wasn't particularly impressed. Probably cause my expectations were a liiiiiittle too high! xD
Product Pros and Cons
Pros:
- The super fine and stable precision tip of this liner makes it perfect for beginners or drawing a nice crisp, clean line when in a hurry. ;)
- Very pigmented for a pen liner. I have tried TONS in this range and this is by far the best
- Perfect for tightlining, if used with caution.
- An ideal liner to carry in your make-up bag for touch ups when you're on the go, thanks to its cute and handy packaging.
Super fine and stable precision tip! |
Cons:
- Not as lasting as I expected, in fact this eyeliner fades on me throughout the day, as I have pretty oily eyelids, so you'll definitely need touch ups if you apply this product only. On a positive sidenote, there was no transfer whatsoever to the top, which is something I have always experienced with liquid pen liners.
- Didn't do well in regard to water resistance either. Winter makes my eyes quite teary and sadly my wing was gone by the time I was home and checked it in the mirror. So if you're looking for a fool-proof waterproof eyeliner, then definitely look for something else (the ETUDE HOUSE Proof 10, that I already reviewed, is a great and affordable waterproof liquid liner).
- Quite pricey for what it is. I purchased mine for ebay for 18USD incl. shipping costs.
Keep in mind that my skin is on the oilier side, so I always have trouble finding a liner that actually stays put!
One swipe was enough to get this much pigmentation!! |
Smudge test: Failed! D= |
Final Thoughts:
Overall, I don't think this liner is bad at all, it's the best of all liquid pen liners I've used, but it's not an all purpose eyeliner, especially if you have oily eyelids. :(
If you're someone who likes to wear intense or smokey eye shadow looks and wants a little definition, then look no further, the Koji Dolly wink will not dissapoint you.
If on the other hand you want this for a bold winged liner look, which is what I personally go for on a daily basis, then I would not recommend this product.
7/10
