Winged liner is one of my favourite
make-up looks ever. The only problem is that I suck at it. I bow down - hello Beyoncé
reference - to people that do master the skill of applying winged liner
perfectly. I personally have good and bad days and it usually takes a lot of
cotton buds - or even removing the entire eye look- to have wings that are sort
of even.
A lot of it is the
product you use and I've discovered that eyeliner pens are my fave. They are
easy to work with and don't smudge on me. Especially that last thing is very
important to me, because I always end up with a black line on my eyelids.
I had always heard
good things about the L'Oréal Paris Super Liner and when there was a 2 for 1
offer going on I couldn't resist (the other product was a different eyeliner
from L'Oréal that will pop up on the blog soon!).
I'm not very good
at eyeliner, but this product makes it so much easier to do. I love the ‘‘plastic
pen’’ that you apply it with. Normally I hate those kinds of plastic brushes,
but this works really well.
I completely understand why so many
people love this product. It gives you a lot of control to make the perfect
line, that is completely black - also very important - and it makes creating
that winged line seem like the easiest job ever.
When I popped it
in my basket, I had no idea what Black Lacquer meant. They had no normal black
version, so I decided to let it surprise me. When I first put it on I
immediately discovered what it was. It leaves a kind of glossy finish when you
apply your eyeliner. It looks really cool and it's not your typical matte
eyeliner look.
Am I a cat-eye pro
now? Nope. But it definitely makes life much easier when I do decide to do a
winged liner look. Practice makes perfect, so when I’m not in a hurry I
actually apply my eyeliner and hope for the best. Hopefully by next year, I
will be able to make a perfect wing in less than three minutes. I’m not
counting on it, but I can dream right?
Have you tried the L’Oréal Paris
Super Liner before?
