So, in short here are the reasons why I ended up returning the item(s). Please remember that these are my preferences and opinion! They may just work for you... Anyway, to go on!
For the eyeliner:
- Because it is a gel formulation (so it says on the packaging) it is so wet. Most liquid products do not smudge on my eyes, but the dry time for this eyeliner is so long. I mean, I was fanning my eyelids so that the would dry. Before knowing that, I had a thick wet line above my eyes!
- The finish. Too wet-looking. It almost looks plastic on the eyes, and it doesn't give a sophisticated look because it's too shiny.
- Something about the works of this isn't favorable. Perhaps it's too thin, although I've been a fan of thin brushes (CathyCat eyeliner) but the works of it is not the best of it's kind.
- When swatched, it does last all day, but I asked people around me to try this one out and it had smudging going on. (Flaking, mostly)
In terms of the mascara.
- Fall outs. Mascaras don't usually bother me much, but this one, by the end of the day was drying up and flaking all over and under my eyes.
- Again, because it's a gel-consistency, it is so difficult to take off! I don't go for waterproof makeup because I hate taking them off.
- The brush is hard to work with.
- Again, that gel-formulation is just way too wet. Too much of a dry time!
Whew.
This all sounds negative, but they are my honest thoughts so I hope it helped you somehow. Again, they are purely my preferences so they may just work for you! Tell me what you think.
