Lakme Fantasy Shimmer Eyeliner - Midnight Moon Review and EOTD

I am reviewing a liquid eyeliner from Lakme Fantasy Collection now. Sorry for irregular post time, I was a little lazy and also had some works. I remember doing some EOTD here with this eyeliner, which you can check out here. I know, this is somewhat a late review for this liner, but still I wanted to review this one as it became one of my favorite eyeliner. Now, let the see the product description before going into the review.
Product Description: Steal the secret to those twinkling eyes with a gel based liner infused with micro-fine glitter particles. This rich sparkle liner lets you line, layer or blend without smudging or spreading. I will be showing you some swatches and also a EOTD using this eyeliner, nothing much I have simply used this on my bare eyes (Ofcourse kohl-ed he he ) and hope you will enjoy this review. Don't forget to read my reviews of Lakme Insta Eye Liner and Other Lakme Products.

My Experience with this Product
This liquid eyeliner comes in a very classy sleek case with a long applicator. I loved the way of packaging, it is really cute and trendy. The lid is golden colored and the case is transparent. Stiff and travel friendly packaging, overall very well packed.

  The shade of this eyeliner is somewhat grayish blue with white, sky blue and dark blue shimmers in it, which are not all OTT on your eyes. You can apply this liner in whatever way you want as the application is so easy and in control.
  Soon after I applied this on my eyes it dried like a magic, within 2 or 3 seconds. I am impressed the way it dries because the Lakme insta liner one takes ages to dry :P the shade is not at all over powering, it is a daily wearable shade and a great substitute for regular black. I stopped using the black liners and jumped to this one recently.


 This fantasy eyeliner stays for up to 6 hours and even more if you don't sweat. It doesn't smudge at all whatever I rub, but pour some water and rub, it will totally vanish off. I expected it to be water proof but sadly it is not. This will go well for people who doesn't sweat much and surely a great buy I would say!

And see now, how it looks on my eyes.


PROS
  1. Lovely shade, somewhat blueish gray. This is a daily wearable subtle glittery eyeliner.
  2. Quick drying, dries in 3 seconds.
  3. It doesn't smudge however you rub
  4. Stays for a decent time.
  5. Easily available
  6. Can be removed easily with your daily cleanser.
  7. Easy application with the long applicator. Every application is smooth.
  8. The texture of the eyeliner itself is smooth with subtle shimmer which do not look OOT on your eyes at all.

CONS
  1. Not waterproof
  2. Might be pricey for the little quantity

Nothing more! I really love the shade. Waiting to try the other shades as well.

Overall Rating: 3.5/5

My Recommendation: Try for sure! This makes a perfect casual/formal wear eyeliner with subtle shimmers.

Will I Repurchase?: Of course. I will. I love this shade very much.
