e.l.f. Mineral Waterproof Shadow Liner, "Brown", Review And Swatches

Finding the eyeliner that works for you can be hard and frustrating to discover, because there is so many options out there. As you all know, I am trying to purchase more affordable options to satisfy my beauty obsession. That is why I purchased e.l.f.'s Mineral Waterproof Shadow Liner in the color, "Brown" to see how this would perform on me.

I purchased this on e.l.f.'s website, which you can check out here. They retail for $3.99 but as of right now, they are on sale for $1.99, so please do check out there selection. They come in six different colors, and when I last checked, a few of them where out of stock! So, get them while you can!

e.l.f. claims that this product will last all day, with no smudging, fading or running. They promise that this will give off bold rich color and glide on smoothly. You can use this as an eyeliner or you can blend it out and wear it as an eyeshadow.

Let's see how this held up, all we?

This is a jumbo sized pencil that twists the product up from the top, making it extremely convenient to keep in your everyday makeup bag because there is no sharpening required. That is always a huge plus in my book!

This pencil is made from plastic that is very durable. The plastic cap stays on pretty well, and seems like it will withstand being inside your makeup bag without falling off.

I suppose the only downside to the fact that this is a jumbo pencil is that the tip is jumbo sized as well. It comes sharpened to a point, but after several uses, of course it rounds out and because the product is encased in a plastic pencil, there is no way to sharpen it. For some that might be an issue, so it is something to think about.

I will say that this is a waxy formula and it does drag and skip when applying it to the lash line on the top. That is unfortunate, because no matter how many times I have used this as an eyeliner, it does not come out in a clean crisp line, because it skips terribly. BUT, what I do, is just use an angled eyeliner brush to smooth out and smudge the eyeliner and it looks very pretty. Same with the lower lash line, it smudges out like a dream.

I have also applied this as an eyeshadow and it blends out beautifully, but just make sure that you work quickly because this product sets fast. Because this is a matte eyeliner, with no sparkles in it, you can wear it as a matte eyeshadow or use it as a base and add your favorite eyeshadow on top, in whatever finish you like.

This is a very versatile product!

This formula is amazing! Because it does not and will not smudge nor budge! I have worn it on several occasions and it holds up all day long with no transfer whatsoever! This absolutely stands up to its claims! I love it!

Definitely check out the e.l.f. Mineral Waterproof Shadow Liner either in your local Target, Walmart, or on e.l.f.'s website! They are amazing and come in six different colors that I cannot wait to purchase for myself!



Have A Wonderful Day!
