Maybelline The Colossal Eyeliner Review

So here I am with more than adequate experience with the newly launched Maybelline colossal eyeliner. And I must say I am hooked all the way.

It used to be just my kajal and mascara till 2 months back. Eyeliner was reserved for days I felt awesome. Then I got the Hypersharp liner which I will review shortly. But suffice to say this colossal liner from the same brand has made me wear eyeliner everyday since the day I got it. 




Time for the formal review tadaaa.

Price : Rs. 450/- 

The eyeliner comes in the form of a pen with a sketchy (?) tip. The felt tip makes application really a breeze. One can make the liner thin/thick easily. The tip is not as fine as that of hypersharp but if you are someone who finds it hard to make thick/medium sized lines with the hypersharp, you would love this one.




The color is not jet black but is very well pigmented. You can build up the intensity without the eyeliner going flaky.





Staying power is 7-8 hours after which it starts fading but does not disappear completely :) I do not have oily lids so you might want to take that into consideration.

Overall I am impressed with this liner. So if you are someone who is not adept at doing the liner with liquid liners, give this a shot. I bet you would go gaga over this one ;) 

Lakme Absolute Kohl on the upper and lower waterlines, Maybelline Colossal eyeliner on the upper lashline and L'oreal Million Volume lashes mascara on the lashes work together great to make your peepers look "ah well beautiful" :)

Disclaimer : The product was sent by the brand for consideration. But my opinions are honest swear to God ;)

Eyeliner Watch : Elle 18 Sparklers Swatches and Review!

Come Let me show you how ignorance kills you :) I was so impressed by the graphic design of the elle 18 sparklers that I got all the five without even swatching and waiting for reviews. And result ?? I am stuck with 5 chubby crayon pencils.





  • They cost me 85 bucks a pop.
  • They look like crayon pencils.Reminds me of NYX!
  • These eyeliners are soft,creamy and glide on easily.No tugging/pulling.
  • And because of the creamy texture they hardly last an hour or 2. That too I should be careful not to touch/rub them.
  • Pigmentation varies with each color.
  • All the shades give a pearly finish albeit the silver spark which is very shimmery.
  • Now to the shades:
  • Purple Pataka : Violet-pink shade.Average pigmentation.need 2 swipes to show up on my eyes
  • Silver Spark: Stark white shade with white OTT shimmers .Pathetic pigmentation.looks odd on the eyes.cannot be even used as a highlighter.
  • Green Grenade: Forest green shade.Average pigmentation.need 2 swipes.
  • Blue Blast: Beautiful navy blue shade. It is very pretty and has average pigmentation.
  • Gun Powder: My favorite. Metallic grey shade.I love this color.But I cannot find similar shade in other brands.Wish it had more staying power :( 
  • If u guys know a dupe of this shade please notify me in the comments :)
 VERDICT:
If u are into funky non lasting shades and would rather get 5 colors instead of 2 then these are made for u :)

Amway Attitude Eyeliner Pencil In Kajal-Coal Swatches and Review!

 

 I am not much of a Kajal fan cuz after few hours they make me look like a racoon and give me dark circles..but still I have tried many brands of kajal like Lakme,Streetwear,Eyetex,Lotus,Bourjois Khol liner,e,t.c I like Lotus Kajal and Eyetex the most!
Eyetex is not very pigmented but holds without smudging for long time while Lotus is more black and I need only a single swipe but smudges after few hours!
Now I wanted a Kajal that can be doubled up as eyeliner too :) So when I am out I need to carry only one pencil and a lipbalm to luk presentable!
Now enters the Amway Attitude eyeliner pencil in Kajal Coal...tadatada.rampampam :P



  • It is so smooth..just glides on!Colossal kajal doesn't give that feeling to me :(
  • Is very pigmented.. I wont call it jet black but it is damn black :)
  • The packaging is similiar to that of the bourjois Khol and Contour rangebut the tip of the kajal luks like that of the Faces eyeliner.
  • Stayed on my waterline for 6 hours without smudging :) 
  • Can be used both on waterline and top of the eye :)
  • Pencil liners are hassle free..u can apply them faster
  • The tip is right for drawing thin lines and u can use lakme sharpener!It doesn't get used up much thou :)
  • I would call it water resistant rather than water proof...
  • Doesn't sting my eyes..Lakme one does!
  • Costs 280/- not cheap but it will last long!I have atlast found my HG eyeliner/kajal ;)
  • I have put up swatches comparing it with sum other kajals that I own..forgot to swatch the Lakme one thou.


From L-R:Eyetex kajal,Lotus,Bourjois Noir Expert Khol Liner,Attitude Kajal:all swiped once!

As u can see Attitude kajal is nearly as dark as the 72 Noir expert which is probably the darkest Khol I have used!But tha latter smudges a lot :( 

So get this one and u wouldn't be disappointed ;)

P.S :Yes I put that earring to make u guys go J ;) So wat r u waiting for??Please go green and pleasure me :D

Bourjois Khol and Contour-Brun Design review!





I own only lil eye makeup and this is one that I use often since black luks harsh to me sometyms(moody sigh!).I like Bourjois products as they are of great quality and this 1 is not exception ;) but has some minus points.
      I own 2 shades in the Khol and Contour Range: Brun Design and Noir Expert.
     Brun Design is a chocolate brown colour.





It is intense and one swipe(well nt exactly but u get d point ;) ) is enuf to show up even on my ghost eyes.But the less exciting factor is that it is Not Smudge-proof.Like if u accidently touch ur eyes ..uff!But if u manage nt to harm it ,it stays put for long hours :)
       I am pretty ok with this since it is a Khol pencil.Hence,it is totally waterline safe-tried and tested :) 
            I am going to try the FACES eye pencil as Poohkie has raved about it :) It is smudge-proof and waterproof :D Also Need to try the Duochrome range:) Yup..I am always late :P

RATING:
:D :D :D
