[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

I rate this:

Thank you for reading :)

[REVIEW]Lioele Glittering Jewel Eyeliner #Aqua Green & #Matte Black

Hey guys~

First of all, I wanna give some love to my new followers~arigato!

So yes, onto the review :D

I saw these eyeliner 2 months ago in qoo10 website when they had pretty cheap promotion for this so I bought two of the colors which is Aqua Green and Matte Black. These two colors is the newest one in this collection. They had another black color which has glitter with it.

I actually kept the photos for a long time and when I organized my folder, I realize that I forgot about them..haha XD  .I had a pretty little quantity of eyeliner and I would say that this is my first black and green pencil eyeliner.

The model of the brand, Lioele is Tia from Chocolat, a Korean idol group. She's mix and very pretty right?You could not believe if I said that she is 16 years old..that was crazy young..haha

Something wrong with the description..Did they know what they are talking about?

First they said that it is long lasting waterproof eyeliner keeps your eye without smudging even in sweat or sebum and then they said it possibly removed by sebum.Oh my..

Ah sorry for the Aqua Green, the pencil broke when I tried to swatch them.The Aqua Green is very creamy so maybe I was too harsh.. but I just realize..do the Aqua Green used to be blue?bad lighting is bad..it looks like turquoise in real.

Under the running water.Yup,did not budget even a bit..

Sorry, bad lighting is bad..too bad..

Smudge using fingers with water..looks like the black is disappearing cleanly and the aqua green smudges really bad..errr..you should not wear the aqua green in parties..haha

On the day which my sister graduate, I wore the black eyeliner in the whole hot day and the black eyeliner didn't even budget despite my oily eyelid and sweat..but it's a bit hard to remove so you need make-up remover to remove them completely. 

I initially wanna show the pictures on how it looks like but after so long and I just intend to wear this, the aqua green color is froze!!It became so rough and it hurts although I just wanted to swatch it on hands..now I know why it is so cheap =.=

Although the aqua green shows that side, the black one stays soft though..I'm not sure why..(?) 

So the thing that I can predict is the aqua green contains those glitters but the black is a matte one so it stays like it was..maybe(?)

But when I first purchased this, both eyeliners glide beautifully without any problems and the aqua green is more soft than the black one(I know coz I mistakenly dirtied up my shirt with the aqua green color coz it clashes with my hands..and it kinda reverse in state after few months..lol

I should say that the colors is really pretty and I love the aqua green color..it almost looks like turquoise and match my cardigan..haha but it's sad that now it can't be used anymore. For the black, the color is okay..black enough for me :D

Another things that makes me dislikes this 'pencil' type is they need to be sharpen. Because the eyeliner are soft, so it used to be dull after each use and need the sharpener again. Thank god I bought the Etude House sharpener last time and it works great on sharpening these soft eyeliners.

Colors : 5/5

Long lasting : 4/5

Texture : 2/5(for aqua green), 3/5(for matte black)

Smudge : 3/5
