[REVIEW] Bbia Last Pen Eyeliner #Red Brown


Hi guys!
So today I'll be reviewing this pen eyeliner that I bought from testerkorea last December. This has been sitting in my folder since forever and I'm not sure why I just found out that I haven't review this yet but I tell you that this is my favourite eyeliner ever since I started using it.

Here's a little details for you;

Brand : Bbia
Type : Pen Eyeliner/Liquid Eyeliner
Color : Red Brown
Where to buy : Testerkorea, BeautyBoxKorea




1x swatch.


I always love brown eyeliner and I probably used about 90% brown eyeliner everyday and it is a must color for my eyeliner. I use black too but not so much or even I just bought one black recently after about a year without black eyeliner. I guess because brown color give me softer look than black liner so that's why I like brown color better on me.

A lot of brown eyeliner out there and I myself have tried so far turns a little darker, almost black on my eyes when I layered them up and I'm looking for something that wouldn't look dark no matter how many layers I applied and I found this.

Originally I was afraid of this Red Brown color turns too red for me but it is not! In fact, I was very pleasant on how the color turns on my eye because it has a little red undertone to it so whenever I layered it up, it won't turn dark but stay to its true color.

Another thing that I like about this eyeliner is that it dries quickly after applying and it doesn't smudge on me no matter how long I wear it. Furthermore, the eyeliner also didn't transfer onto my lid which happen to me with the 3CE eyeliner which you can view it my past review HERE.

The eyeliner is not waterproof but it is the type of eyeliner that when you rub it, it would "flakes" rather than smudge. Do you kind of get it? I'm terrible at explanation but too bad I don't have a picture to show an example of it.

There's also no scent to this eyeliner so no worries.

Overall, I would buy this again for sure and probably try the Burgundy next? coz I'm quite interested on seeing how it turn out on my eyes XD

[REVIEW] Missha Waterproof Drawing Eye Pencil #Roasting Coffee


Hi guys!

Today I'll be reviewing this eye pencil from Missha, which is also one of their latest collection. When I was browsing W2Beauty to shop, I saw this pencil as new arrival and after looking through, I said that I would give this a try since the poster ad looks amazing. There are a few colors in this collection and honestly I wanted them all!haha  

This pencil is my current favourite and I used this every single time when I'm out because it is just awesome for a makeup noob like me XD..I saw a few of instagram photos about the Korean smoky trend eyes which kind of look glowy on the lid and subtle in colors(mostly brown, yellowy-orange, subtle burgundy) so I really wanted to recreate that look for myself since it looks so pretty!



Name : Waterproof Drawing Eye Pencil
Brand : Missha
No. of colors : 10
Duration of use : 12 months after opening
Production : Made in Korea
Price : £ 6.91 each
Where to buy : W2Beauty





Note : This pencil liner didn't contain any glitter, the glitter that appear in this picture was because I touch a glittery eyeshadow and the fall outs are everywhere.

Left picture : The darker one is by the pencil and the lighter one is smudge by the brush provided.

Right picture : Rubbed the pencil under warm tap water.

Here I used the pencil as eyeliner and smudge it throughout my eyelid using the brush at the other end. My makeup technique is awful, I bet you guys can do better than this. ;)


I chose "Roasting" Coffee" since it was the perfect color that I was looking for as an eyeliner. I do have a few that had similarities with this color before but they either came with glitter or it wasn't an auto liner, which means it was those kind of woody pencil.

Auto eyeliner is the greatest invention out there for eye pencil coz there's no sharpening of the "wood" with mess and cause the liner breaks for 100000 times. Yep, been there, done that.
Although this auto liner do have their own sharpener or called "tip sharpener" which specializes on sharpening the tip for precise application, I didn't bother to use it for this Missha eye pencil. It is because I mainly use the liner to be smudge later so I didn't think sharpening would be any useful for that. However, if it is used for eyelining, then the sharpener would be useful (though I didn't do that, just straight away applied it on my eyes XD)

The texture of pencil is really smooth and it glides easily on the eyes. However it's not the type that melt easily when hot nor breaks easily. I was quite happy about that since my makeup easily melts. T_T

I was actually didn't believe the "waterproof" thing when I first try them. Since my eyelid had multiple folds, I always had trouble with creasing for most of eye makeup out there and primer didn't make a difference either. So I thought this would crease easily since the texture is smooth and glides on the eyelid easily. I also had an oily eyelid and that wouldn't look great for smudging or it'll be a mess. But, the thing that surprised me the most is this pencil is really waterproof! Even with my oily eyelid, it stays on nicely on a long day and creasing is almost none. I only encounter one time creasing, which I'm not sure why but most of the time, it didn't crease at all.

Another thing that I notice is this eye pencil works best on greasy(?) eyelid. Umm..not greasy I mean but something moisturizing on the eyelid because it will make the color looks smooth and glowy. That was also the thing that I was going for. In the above picture, it might not show but in real, it does.

The brush that came with the pencil is very useful. I can be both eyeliner brush and also smudging brush which I think it does a really good job! The bristles are really smooth and kinda wet(?) and it picks up the product easily.

The only downward of this eyeliner is that it won't work on creamy shadows. If you applied on the creamy shadows before using this pencil, it won't work at all. 

Lastly, my advice is that you have to work fast if you want to smudge it because after it kind of dry, it won't budge anymore. I really recommend this to everyone especially to makeup beginner who would like to achieve kinda "smoky" eyes without causing mess :D

[REVIEW] K-Palette 24H Real Lasting Eyeliner 1 Day Tattoo


Konnitiha minna~ Sorry it took me so long to post a new review though I'm considered as having too much of free time XD Anyway, since I'm going back to college tomorrow and I might start getting busy again, so I prepared a new review :)

Since long, I really wanted to try the most hype eyeliner on internet which is K-Palette eyeliner. They have lots of eyeliner type but I choose 1 Day tattoo because it sounds like it will stay on throughout the day. 

Name : K-Palette 24H Real Lasting Eyeliner 1 Day Tattoo
Colour : #DB01 Deep Brown
Origin : Product of Japan








I really have a huge expectation for this eyeliner because it was hype all over the internet for it's amazing stay on the lids however I'm a bit let down at first because it is easily remove with rubbing when I swatch the liner on my hand.

But, the happy finds is that it stays really well on my lids although my lids is very oily after a few hours under the sun. Maybe a little little smudge but it wasn't obvious.

Another thing is that the liquid liner doesn't transfer to my eyelid as 3CE Slim Pen Eyeliner that I reviewed previously. It is totally a huge relief for me because I don't have to worry when I have to wear this for a long time.

The liner looks horrible up close as the eye swatches above but it was obviously on zoom setting of the camera and normal people wouldn't be able to see that XD and I assure you it looks fine on me but makes sure your eyelid is clean and not oily to achieve a perfect line. 

The brush is very soft and it can draw the thinnest line too if you're wondering. The colour is deep brown as it should be and I really love it.

As the package says that it can be remove will warm water but I personally test it out with cold water and it remove easily as well.

Final summary, I like this eyeliner, it is easy to use, the colour is my perfect match and it gives a soft look for daily makeup.

I rate this :

[REVIEW] Majolica Majorca Linehunter Eyeliner #BK999


Hello~
I managed a bit of my time to post a new review. Recently, I wanted to try more Japanese cosmetics than the Korean ones so I made a few purchases on the Japanese cosmetics that I encountered while randomly google-ing. I always wanted to try MM eyeliner (the twist one) but never got chance to do so and I saw these Linehunter collection that were released quite early this year if I'm not mistaken and the seller on ebay got this up on sale so I bought this right away.. :D

I heard that this collection have made it to Malaysia but my recent visit to a few MM counter in Watsons, I didn't saw this yet. Probably the the MM counter in KL or big cities would have this collection. 

MM packaging never fails me, it is mystery yet looks so gorgeous, I'm a packaging sucker and I know it..haha



Mine is black in colour.

Those are manufacturing date and expired date I guess.

This liner pen is super slim! A lot slimmer than my pen, lol

I just love love the design~

Actually I don't realize this before this review but the eyeliner brush have two sides with this, which is the slimmer and wider part. Slimmer part is for thin eyelining and the wider part is for thicker eyeline. I just realize than I used the slim part a lot more than the wider part because the thickness is just right for my eyes. 
If compared to other eyeliner that I had tried, eg; Dolly Wink, Skinfood, 3CE, the brush for this eyeliner is much more thinner than them. The wide part is comparable but the slim part is definitely thin.

Not the prettiest swatch I ever done ;(

Not the best eyeliner I ever done too.. Just to show here that the eyeliner able to draw the thinnest line on eyes.


I know you'll ask this question so I just tell you that I bought this from ebay. The seller name is kelly3316. Priced at RM39.40 exclude postage. Do note that the postage is not that high either (RM9.14) and it only took 1 and half week to arrive to me and I consider that is very fast coz I usually got my package from Japan or Hong Kong about three weeks.

The first time I tested the eyeliner on my hand, I thought the colour is not very black however later then when I try it again my eyes, it looks like very black in colour. The brush able to draw two types of eyeline, very thin to the thickest because of the unique brush that was designed to have two parts.

The brush is soft and so easy to use. Not a twist type this time from MM.
Because the brush have two parts, it ease me up with drawing the inner corner with the thinnest eyeline and also the thin cat eyes eyeline. No glitter and weird smell from this eyeliner.

The liquid dries pretty fast and I don't have to wait until it dries. However the negative side of this eyeliner is that it is not waterproof. I've read the other blogger review and they said that it is waterproof but how it is not the same as mine? I rubbed it right away after it dries and it smudges and under water it disappears. But although it smudges when I rubbed it, I'm pretty surprised that it don't smudges on my eyes after a whole day. Just it disappears on some part because it is not waterproof.

Overall, aside from the eyeline is not waterproof, I like everything about it. It's so easy to hold and use because it is small and it's perfect to bring anywhere with.

Thank you for reading :)
See you next time for another review coming up!

[REVIEW] Etude House Play 101 Pencil #15 & #27


Hi there guys! 
So I'm unable to combine reviews for these multi purpose pencils from Etude House because of the mismatched arrival. However, I'll link back to the previous post for you which I include nine swatches of the pencils here.

This two pencils are sponsored by Happie Bubbles which is a local Malaysian Korea Beauty Store that sells various Korean Beauty products! You might want to check their facebook page here. I like how bubbly their photos are :D I was asked to choose any products to review so I choose two of these pencils for that. The parcel arrived to me yesterday and I've tried the two of them since I was excited whenever a parcel arrives for me..haha



This time I tried the sharpen it but so many problems encountered while sharpening No.15 because it is so soft and the sharpener often got stuck with the product at the end making it messy.

These pencils are twistable and attached with sharpener.

I did not do the outdoor swatches picture for the previous post so here is the outdoor version. Paper swatches were kinda useless so I didn't do them this time.


The pencil is twistable and it means that you don't have to use the regular sharpener to sharpen the outer black part. They attached a plastic sharpener at the end of the pencil to sharpen the tip if needed. 

I love how unique the idea of making this multi-purpose pencils as eyeshadow, lipstick and eyeliner in one. Most of my eyeshadows are came in palette or individual cases so it takes a lot of space in my pouch when I travelled. However, with these pencils types, it easily fit into my pouch and I can bring as much as I want to with varieties of colours.


No.15 - It is a glossy type which is very soft to me. It kinda easy to melt (it's hot here) and hard to sharpen because it tends to get messy a lot. I love the colour so much. It's a peachy orange and suits lips very much. Unlike No.23 that I reviewed here, this No.15 is pretty much not suitable for eyeshadows because it might creased. No.23 is less glossier and I've tried using it as eyeshadow which works for me. 


No.27 - Is a glitter darker pink in colour. Honestly the poster photo is different from the real tip which you can trust the poster better because the pink wasn't as dark as the tip shown. The swatches are comparable with the poster photo and I like it that it won't smudges after it dries. It feels a little bit rough as No.44 because of the glitter but it is a really pretty colour. Suit to be an eyeshadow and it is waterproof too.

Overall, I love these pencils so much! Would love to get the blue version next :D
I definitely recommend everyone to try it :) Read my previous post for another nine colours swatches!

I used No.15 on the center of the eyelid and No.27 for the whole eyelid. No.15 is being an epic fail to be an eyeshadow even though I prep my eyes with eye primer. Sorry, I'm kinda lazy of putting mascara so I used falsies..haha..it's a bit mess there.

I rate this :
