My Experience with this Product
I always prefer eye pencils than liquid liners because, as you know I am a lazy girl :P Who will wait until the liquid one dries? It is not comfortable for me to line my eyes than the pencils. I am using this eyeliner pencil from Deborah Milano now and then for past two weeks. The shade is not mentioned on the pack but I say it has a purplish shade without any shine or glossy sheen, it is a perfect matte one.
The texture is so smooth and creamy and so I did not believe first that it would be water proof, but it is! Even after showing my hands under tap water for 30 seconds there is no fading of colour but it smudges. With few rubs, it completely disappears leaving a purple tint. This doesn't seems like a con for me because the another plus is, we can do some easy smokey effect with this. I don't know exactly but, because of the very creamy consistency I couldn't get that sharp tip however I sharpen it. So, forget about getting thin lines. I also did not get that thick line with a single stroke, it takes 3 or 4!
Even though being travel friendly and handy, I expected a sharpener with this which is needed more often. It would have been very better if this comes in a roll on stick type pen but overall, I am quite impressed with this eye pencil for the beautiful purple shade. The staying power is approximately 6 hours only if you don't have the habit of touching your eyes :P Other than that, it is water proof so no complaints. The company doesn't claim much for this product, so it lives almost up to the claim.
And now comes, my EOTD. I used nothing other than this eye pencil and a kajal on my eyes.
I am loving this beautiful purple shade? Don't you?
