Laura Mercier Kohl Eye Pencil Review | Smudge-able, Long Wearing & Waterproof

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

Laura Mercier Pencil EyelinerLaura Mercier Kohl Eye Pencil have made this creamy formula especially for lining the base of the lashes and the inside of the eye lid.

The waxes and oils in the ingredients are what allow the pencil to glide effortlessly as well as making it easier to smudge if desired.

The formula is created to give a elevated pigment charge (more smudging time), this should give you more time to create the sexy smokey eye that we all love. It is available in nine different shades.

Avon Glimmersticks Eye Liner Review | Long Lasting Self Sharpening Easy To Use Pencil

Saturday, August 7th, 2010

Avon GlimmerstickAvon Glimmersticks Eye Liner is designed to define the eyes while also being easy to apply. Avon says it made this eye liner for easy use so it has a easy glide on color with long wear, self sharpening and its retractable.

Glimmersticks also come in a wide range of colors. I have a black one and it is really black not a greyish black like some brands. Unfortunately this eye liner isn't waterproof though, so you might want to look at other reviews if you need a waterproof one.

Avon guru's on viewpoints.com think Glimmersticks eye liner is good as it lasts all day, goes on so smooth without tugging skin and the price is great.

Some other ladies weren't as impressed as they found it to smudge and not last very long.

Ingredients

CYCLOPENTASILOXANE
POLYETHYLENE
SYNTHETIC WAX
POLYBUTENE
BEESWAX/CIRE D'ABEILLE
DI-PPG-3 MYRISTYL ETHER ADIPATE
BORON NITRIDE
SUCROSE TETRASTEARATE TRIACETATE
STEARYL DIMETHICONE
PENTAERYTHRITYL TETRABEHENATE
ISODECYL NEOPENTANOATE
SYNTHETIC BEESWAX
TOCOPHEROL
STEARALKONIUM BENTONITE
PROPYLENE CARBONATE
ASCORBYL PALMITATE
DIMETHICONE/VINYL DIMETHICONE CROSSPOLYMER

Avon Glimmersticks Eye Liner costs $2.99 as its on sale now, but normally costs $6. Which is still a great deal at full price and is cheaper than most brands.
