Estee Lauder Double Wear Eyeliner

First off everyone i have to say how sorry i am that i havent been able to blog for a little while now! I have been absolutely stressed and run off my feet with uni, but i have missed so much blogging and chatting to you guys!

Anyway, my last piece of written work is now handed in so hopefully i will be back in the swing of blogging more regularly!

Anyways, this post today is a quick one all about my absoloute new love, gel eyeliner! This one in particular is made by Estee Lauder and is part of their double wear range, which the foundation from this line is incredibly popular in the blogging community!

The eyeliner comes in the most lovely little blue box, so chic! The product itself is held within a small glass pot and a gold coloured lid with simply the Estee Lauder logo on the top,which looks so elegant alongside the rest of my makeup collection.
Inside, the gel eyeliner which i got in the shade Onyx (black) is a smooth, yet solid product.
The consistency is a little strange if you never have tried gel eyeliner before, however it is so smooth and so well pigmented when you apply it!

I currently use a benefit bent eyeliner brush which is particularly good alongside this product, but within the box is also a small little brush which is actually okay to apply the product especially if you do not currently have an eyeliner brush within your collection. (FYI i am absolutely dying to try the new real techniques eyeliner brush soon to be released!)

This product makes applying eyeliner so quick and easy, which is a major plus point as i am an eyeliner obsessive! You can achieve a really brilliant shape as the product is really smooth! Another major positive of this eyeliner is because it is part of the double wear range, it lasts for so long!Honestly i wear this all day long and not once have i had to reapply it (although if i am out at night i am slightly obsessive and will apply it again- even when there is no need really!)

I am absolutely mad about this product, as you may have guessed. from this post, but it is one of those products which has my daily routine so much easier!It's Love!

The eyeliner is priced usually at £14.50, but i managed to pick this up at Cheshire Oaks CCO for £11!

Have you tried gel eyeliner efore?what are your favourites if you have?

Topshop Eyeliner- Coal

Today's post is just a quick review of the Topshop Kohl eyeliner i recently purchased from my trip to London with my sister ( small haul post here)!
I picked up the black shade as i was desperate for a new basic black pencil eyeliner as previous ones have smudged like crazy! Ironically this shade is actually called coal!


I have used this a few times now and i have been rather impressed!Firstly the pigmentation is absolutely fantastic,it is a really pure black shade (which sounds silly but so many black eye products end up having such poor pigmentation!) and secondly the pencil itself is so soft, meaning you do not scratch your eyes or push hard to achieve a good colour!
I personally love using black eyeliner and have tried this on the lid as a base, as a liner on the top and bottom lids and also in the water line and i was pleasantly suprised with the staying power in each use. The bottom liner did smudge the first time i used it,but i used a primer underneath the next time i used it and it didn't budge!






I will definitely be picking up more of these and i hope they will be bringing out more shades!The brown is definitely next on my shopping list to buy!
The only negative i have about this product and also with a lot of the topshop products is the packaging. It is a really pretty pattern and is so lovely at the start with the white and black scheme,but after using it repeatedly for a while the white packaging ends up looking a bit doety. It's not the biggest problem in the world but me being slightly obsessive about my products,it does bother me a little!
Overall i would most definitely recommend picking up one of these to try,as it is brilliant quality,black eyeliner is such a staple product in anybody's make up set and the price is brilliant at just £4 available from the Topshop website here!


Have you tried any of the topshop products before?What is your favourite eyeliner products?
