Revlon-a-thon #2 : Colorstay Liquid Liner

This is the second review in my Revlon-a-thon serie. As you may know if you read my blogpost on Lise Watier makeup, I had already found my Holy Grail black eyeliner. Since it's my favorite, I use it up pretty fast and this time, I wanted to try someting else before buying another one of the Encre Noir liner. I checked out a couple of review on Youtube about the best liquid liner but I thought, if I change my favorite, I'd prefer a drugstore eyeliner! So I found on emilynoel83 channel (My favorite youtuber of all time) that the Revlon Colorstay Liquid Liner is her favorite liquid liner! I went out, bought it and here is my thought on it. 

First, I have to tell you what i'm looking for in a liquid liner. I want control, a small applicator for tiny lines and details, a very matte black formula and a good staying power. I prefer brush tip applicators and a quite short but not too tiny handle.
This product has a felt tip and I was really impressed with the application of it! You can achieve a very small line with it or get crazy and make a big wing and there is no problem at all. I actually really enjoy the tip since it's short and pointy, it makes it easier to apply the product. I also like the handle on this, you have a lot of control with this kind of handle(it's very similar to the Lise Watier one) and that's what I want. The product itself is a very rich black and the formula is not dry still not super wet. It glides well and and sets pretty fast. The staying power is great! It will stay all day. It's been some days that I didn't thought about it but I went out in the rain without an umbrella, got some raindrops on my face , came inside and did my things and at the end of the day, this eyeliner hadn't move a bit! And it's not waterproof! It's just really good and it will stay until you take it off. 

In conclusion, if you want to try a new liquid liner that is easy to use and that is a drugstore product, go for this one! 

I hope you liked this review and if you have a request or comment, please let me know !

Face Of The Day - Warm Eyes, Soft Lips


I already said that but I live in Canada, in the province of Quebec. Here, the weather is hot in summer (from 25°C to 30°C) and very cold in the winter (from -25°C to 30°C). So when the autumn is coming, it also means that the weather is gonna change drastically in about a month! This is also the perfect time to warm up my makeup and get into colors like burgundy, gold and deep bronze shades! So here is a look that I really enjoy for this period of the year.

I bought the Wet'n'Wild trio today but I'm not sure if I like it as much as their other trios. The shadows are a bit powdery but the colors are great. I also bought the lipstick today and I really like that line by Kate Moss for Rimmel! I wish there was more shades to chose from.
