Free with the July 2024 issue of Glamour magazine UK is an Eyeko Skinny Liquid Eyeliner in either black or navy blue.
I chose the black liner.
The application was precise when I
began to do my cat eye, but I was very surprised to find that the pen
was beginning to dry out half way across my line!
It dried to the point that very little colour would show.
As
the pen is actually more similar to a liquid eyeliner than a felt tip,
this was quite the problem, as building colour makes the line bulkier
and clumpier due to the formulation.
It's not as simple as going back over your line to fill in gaps like you would with a gel liner or even pencil.
Hence,
I just couldnt get some of the edges of the line clean enough, as
because the liner had already dried I couldnt add more to the area
without it tugging on my eyelid.
I could only finish my eyes by wetting the pen, but now the pen has dried in that uncomfortable way that some liquid liners do.
Not a fan!
The
mag also has a sachet sample of Hawaiian Tropic Satin Protection Sun
Lotion SPF 15, which I've used before and is very nice :)

That's awesome! I wish the US magazines came with goodies like this.
ReplyDeleteIt sure is a good way to play with formulations or brands you might not have otherwise tried!
