Make Up For Ever- Aqua Eyes Pencil Liner

 Make Up For Ever has the Aqua Eyes liner which is suppose to be waterproof, smudge-proof, and fade-proof. They come in 25 different colors, some which are very bright. 

Price- $18

When you apply the liner is smooth, so it's very easy to apply and you don't have to tug and pull your eye.  This is a plus since I wear contacts and my eyes tend to dry very quickly if I don't blink for a few seconds. 

However, the color isn't as strong as I expected, you have to keep applying it to get a strong black. Also, when I applied it on my waterline, it did disappear and quicker than I expected. 

One of my main concerns when I apply eyeliner on my water line is that for some reason it always ends up running to the outer corner of my eye. This is something I still have found no solution to, after trying numerous eye liners and techniques. So when I bought this pencil I thought this would end this problem however, it didn't even when I set it with black eyeshadow. But when you apply eyeshadow over this liner it does last longer than on its own. 

Quick Tip: If you want your waterline to last longer than also put eyeliner on the top inner line of your eye. (basically under your eyelashes). This will help a lot because each time you blink both lines will have eyeliner on them. Also, always set your eyeliner with eyeshadow, this helps alottttt!

Can't forget the mascara-Mascara 101

Some people overlook the different choices they have when purchasing mascara. However, there are mascaras for lengthening, thickening, curling, non-smudging, and non- clumping.

To brighten your eyes quickly and easily, curl your lashes and then apply two coats of mascara. 

Quick Tip- When applying a second coat of mascara do it while the first coat is still wet, if you wait till it dries you will get clumps and messy looking lashes. Also, for a more dramatic look apply more than two coats just do it one eye at a time so the mascara won't dry out. Some people are scared or just don't know they can apply many coats. Trust me, as long as the mascara isn't dry you can keep applying, as long as the mascara is good.

Quick Tip- To get the most out of your mascara and get an even coverage, wiggle the mascara wand from the roots of the lashes to the tip. Try to get every single lash don't forget the lashes on the inner and outer corner of your eyes.

Lengthening

Mascara for lengthening usually come with a wand that have short, densely packed bristles. This allows for more mascara to get on each lash. Also such a wand allows for the mascara to get on the tips and root of the lashes, making them appear longer.  

Thickening

These mascaras add volume and have a thicker formula of waxes and silicone polymers, which gives the lashes a thick coat. They also have darker  and more intense pigment. Perfect for those who have thin lashes or  a little bit of lashes.

Curling

These contain polymers which cause the lashes to shrink and lift, giving them a curl right away. This works well for those with short lashes or lashes that are completely straight. 

Non- Smudging/Waterproof

Such mascaras are water resistant which helps minimize smudging and running. These mascaras can be removed with a oil based makeup remover. Waterproof works for people who have watery eyes of contact wearer, or weddings. However, these mascaras can be a little more harsh than the others so they may dry out your lashes. 

Non-Clumping

Clump free mascara glides on smoothly, therefore you will not have to deal with clumps. However, they do contain fewer waxes and fibers which won't give you a lot of volume and length. 

                                                         My Favorite Mascaras:
