Eyeliner and I have a bit of
a turbulent relationship. I love it, but I can never seem to find
one that works the way I want it to. Usually what happens is the
pencil is too sharp, the felt pen is too narrow or the colour isn't intense enough.
I
came across the Barry M Waterproof Gel Eyeliner in Superdrug the
other day, priced at £3.99, linked here. I liked the fact that it
was waterproof as I frequently end up with eyeliner everywhere by the
end of the day, looking like a bleary eyed panda.
Unlike
some of the other pencils and pens I have wrestled with, the Barry M
eyeliner pencil is soft and pliable, making it easy to press into my
lashes and maintain a steady line. Once applied, I use an eyeliner
brush in order to move the line out to the corners of my eye for a
more precise look.
I
have tried the eyeliner out twice now, once for work and once for a
night out and I can confirm that it has stayed put and not lost any
intensity of colour. Even though it does say waterproof, I was
expecting some smudging or fading after a few hours but that didn't happen at all.
I
can heartily recommend the Barry M Eyeliner pencil to you. I have
included some before and after photographs so you can see how it
looks on.
