Eyeko Mascara

Sorry guys-

I bought this cool-looking Eyeko mascara in a squeezy tube but I returned it before I reviewed. YUCK! On sale for $4.99, I thought I would give it a try (my mascara is 3 months old now, but I love it, and it's expensive). I think I'm gonna try to pick up the Fairydrops mascara in China.

So this Eyeko mascara came in a silver, squishy, squeezy (I just made the typo squeexy and I thought I would share it with you) tube. It's got a cute little wand and promises to stimulate lash growth or something with Vitamin E Oil. I don't like it because it's clumpy (surprisingly so for a rather liquidy formula) and when I wash my face or do sports instead of melting off like I would expect, it comes off on my cheeks in little pieces. It flaked on me! AHAHAHAHAHA I'M FUNNY.

I like it cos it makes my lashes really shiny.

Its best use is the lower lashes.

It's normally $10. Try it out if you like. I found it at Urban Outfitters. I left it at Urban Outfitters.

PS When I returned it I didn't have a receipt but I got store cred. I used it on my graduation dress. xD

Rawr

That's the noise I make when I'm upset. They ran out of black Eyeko grafitti liners at my Urban Outfitters! I really want that specific one, but need it within the week for a party on Saturday, so if they don't get it by Friday, I think I'll finally make my first MAC purchase. I'm going to buy the cream liner, Fluidline in Blacktrack. I'm really excited. By the way, today my friend bought the Too Faced pixie kit that comes in a plasticized quilted bag...not sure what it's called. She got it for $20! Amazing considering it still retails at Sephora for $45...It contains an eyeshadow quad in beautiful neutrals (two shimmer, two matte), a blush/bronzer duo (both matte), a little lash injection (?) mascara, a little baby Shadow Insurance (awwww), and a full sized Glamour Gloss (!!!) in Plush (described on the site as a candied coral...I see it as a peachy-pink with golden shimmers). The reason I'm telling you this is that she gave me the gloss! While surfing Sephora, and being my usual beaut-informed self, I noticed that Too Faced has a new Valentine's/Spring set called "The Look of Love". I'm not impressed. It looks the same as the set my friend found on clearance except that there is only one palette (2 shadows, 1 blush), a bigger shadow insurance and mascara, same-sized Glamour Gloss in a different color, and a foundation primer and kabuki brush...hmm. The blush and gloss are just pink-er. Pinkier? More pink. I guess if you absolutely loved everything from the Fall/Winter set, and you're running out, and want newer trendier colors this is good. Still not convinced. Oh well. Too Faced is great, I got a gloss! :)

Liquid Eyeliners

Ok- the other day I bought a Wet n' Wild eye-defining felt-tip liner for $3.99 at CVS. I think I had an ExtraBuck too...don't you love them? I loved it. I practiced, I learned wings, I used it everyday...for a week. The tip got dirty because of use on sparkly eyes and the point got blunt and difficult to draw with. As an effort to save the $4 product I cut the tip at an angle to try and make it sharper...to no avail. It kind of failed and now lines are streaky and uneven. That's why today I'm going to Urban Outfitters to purchase an Eyeko Grafitti Liquid Liner! They have it in black, purple, blue, and green (?), and I know I'm boring, but I'll be buying the black one. Eyeko is a British cosmetics company with absolutely adorable makeup. They have mascara that is stored in a tube that squeezes and lipgloss with Big Ben and the Union Jack! <3 (mascara= $12, gloss=$10, liner=$8). Can't wait. I'll post a comparison of it and my WnW later.
