Gel Liners – Review

Hey Babies…

Hope you guys enjoyed my tutorial. More coming soon, so please visit my site often yes? Or better still, why not subscribe to my site…wordpress is soo awesome. So when I update my blog you’ll get an alert through your email. But if you dont feel like it then..I DONT LIKE YOU. Hahahaha…not JOKING. Hahahaha.

Anyways, today’s post is all about gel liners. Are gel liners better than pencil liners? liquid liners? To answer this question, one must ask oneself the type of look that one is going for.

For example, if you are going for the non-heavy make up look then may I suggest a pencil liner or using an eyeshadow as an eyeliner. This would create a subtle look. However, if you are going for a somewhat intense look then I strongly recommend that you use a gel liner or a liquid eyeliner. I prefer gel liners as they tend not to sting the eye like some liquid eyeliners that I have tried (aka MAC).

Moving on to the real point of this entry… Recommendations for good gel liners.

Coastal Scents Gel Liners/ Maybelline Gel Liners

I like them both. Both are highly pigmented and are easy to apply (You need practice when applying gel liners cause theycan get quite slippery..you’ll know what I mean).

Price

Coastal Scents : USD$6.95

Maybelline Gel Liner : S$19.90 (Watsons having sale now, 20% off)

Verdict

Like I said before, I like them both. Both have great textures. Coastal Scents offer more colour variations from plum to green to basic black whereas Maybelline only offers black and brown. In terms of prices, you would get a great deal out of coastal scents only if you purchase more than one item from their website cause including shipping and exchange rates, it would probably come up to the same price.

So its really entire up to you guys, can you wait for shipping or need something immediately? Your choice. These two brands are the best when it comes to Gel Liners.

I have tried others such as Bobbi Brown Gel Liners and although it is equally good (seriously the texture of the BB one is exactly the same as the Maybelline one), the price is a MAYJAH killer. Drugstore items would do the same deed for half the price.

Hope this was a helpful one!!

Till then chicas,
