The Lipstick League - Week of 8.15.16


The Lipstick League Question of the Week

What is your ride-or-die eyeliner (the one that is 100% dependable and never lets you down)?

G's answer: I think most of you know that my holy grail eyeliner is Jordana Fabuliner in Black (I'm not a huge fan of the brown shade--I only wear the black). For $2.99 at Walgreens and Kmart (actually it's $2.49 at Kmart), it's such a bargain and it never lets me down. The applicator is the perfect size--not too thick, not too thin, not too stiff, not too flimsy. It's the most user-friendly felt-tip marker liner that I have ever tried, and I LOVE that I can apply it in a hurry and still get a nice, clean line every time. I love that it's a true, dark black (not gray like some other felt-tip liners out there) and while it's not waterproof, it maintains its rich color on my oily lids all day. Plus, it's super easy to remove. Seriously, for $2.99 it can't be beat.

Nouveau Cheap is Currently Craving: popular K-beauty brand It’s Skin Cookie & Body Ice Cream. It’s a body cream that looks and smells like cookies & cream ice cream, and the “soft cookie chip pieces” melt into the skin during application. Oh and the packaging looks like a pint of ice cream. #NEED

  2. I have tried 2 of those G., and I will be darned if I can get anything more than grey when I apply it. My favorite is Kat Von D Tattoo liner in black.

  3. Rimmel Scandel Eyes waterproof Kohl eyeliner. It was a toss up between that one and Urban Decay's pencil eyeliner, but the Rimmel wins for price alone. I use the brown almost every day. I'm Old Skool and I like the liners that you sharpen. I like a really sharp point. I always, always( and I've done this since I started wearing makeup), line my upper and lower lid and then apply my shadow. For liquids, I LOVE the PF with the brush thats made in Korea. I think its a dupe for Kat Von D, tattoo liner.
