Hey there! If you've been with me a while, you'll already know, I have small hooded lids and extremely oily lids, which let me tell you is the worst combination EVER!
Most of the liners smudge on
me in flat 2 hours. Let's not even talk ask about summers. I prefer skipping
kohl/liner altogether during summers for that reason. After testing boat loads
of eyeliners I finally have my favourite Top 3!

.
Plum NaturStudio All Day Wear
Kohl – Price: Rs.425/- 1.2 gm
Look of a gel liner in a
pencil form. It claims to be Smudgeproof, Waterproof and Preservative free.
1) Blackest black in one stroke.
2) Preservative-free, paraben-free,
mineral oil-free, paraffin-free
3) Dermatologically and
ophthalmologically tested & approved. Does not hurt my sensitive eyes.
4) Rich in Vitamin E for care and
protection
5) 100% vegan formula, not tested on
animals
6) Ingredients -Hydrogenated Castor Oil,
Rice Bran Wax, Natural Vitamin E
7) The expiry date is mentioned on the
pencil itself.
8) Quantity is quite a lot in comparison
to other pencils in the market hence justifies the price.
Issues –
1) Needs to be sharpened.
Essence Gel Waterproof Liner – Price: Rs.
299/- 0.57g
It’s been almost 6
months that I discovered this beauty. This is the only product I have used from
this brand. However I need to get more from this brand since I’ve heard rave
reviews. I am already on my second pencil [black]and I also bought a
brown shade.
1) Very pigmented.
2) Soft and does not tug at the eyes
since it’s a gel formula in pencil form.
3) Stays put on my waterline all day with
minimum smudging under the eyes. It starts smudging only after 9-10 hours
during summers.
4) Retractable mechanical pencil. No fuss
no wastage.
Issues -
1)
Re-application is not ideal. It sets very fast
and any re-application removes the colour already set.

Rimmel Exaggerate Waterproof Eye Definer - Price:
Rs.345/- 0.28 gm
1) Retractable liner on one
side and a smudger on the other.
2) An even finish and smooth
in one stroke. Not as dark as above 2 but dark enough.
3) Love using this to create
an easy smokey eyes.
4) Once set, stays in put.
Issues-
1) No particulars/ingredients
mentioned.

I love the Plum natur kohl
since it is great for my sensitive eyes minus all the chemicals, however I
mostly always reach for Essence or Rimmel ‘coz I’m always running late for work
and never have time to sharpen eye pencils #lazygirlwoes Again none of
the liquid liners stay on my lids. [The only one that did, got discontinued L
Maybelline’s HyperSharp Liner] Also pencils are easier to draw with.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One
complaint I have with these pencils is I can’t draw a thin line or a
cat-eye with this. The nib remains too blunt [Still on the find for a good
liquid/ felt tip liner]. Any suggestions guys???
Love,
SS
