Review: Innisfree Powerproof Pen Liner

-

Hi Everyone!
Today we have a make-up review!
As I've said in the past, whenever I do use make-up, I tend to be very minimal. I usually only use eyeliner and mascara, that's it. I rarely use concealer, foundation, eyeshadow, or lipstick. It's not that I don't have any of these products or don't know how to use them, it's more that I just want to have a hassle-free make-up routine, something that is fast.

I have been using this Innisfree Powerproof Pen Liner for a few months now. It's is a pen eyeliner, which is actually what I prefer to use. I'm not a big fan of the liquid eyeliners that come from a pot. I do like some gel eyeliners though!

I found this eyeliner on Yesstyle.com and it was highly popular and on sale, so it was an easy buy for me.

 This eyeliner has an Elastic brush tip, supposedly to make it easier for beginners to make sharp lines along the eyes. The brush is very flexible and NOT hard at all. It doesn't tug or hard to use when I am drawing my eyeliner on. I have sensitive eyes, so it's important for me to find an eyeliner who's brush is painful for my to glide along my eyelid.
It does have a really rich black color, I like how this eyeliner is really pigmented with color. It does take quite a few tries to get the ink out of the liner, which is really annoying. Sometimes I find that I have to go over the same area multiple times just to get a clear, dark, black line. However, whenever the ink is working well, as I said before, the black color is very pigmented.
~~~Side note: there is also a BROWN color of this eyeliner. The one I am using is BLACK.

This eyeliner is suppose to be perfect for water/oil-proof, so that it keeps the eye makeup looking beautiful all day long without smudging from water or oil.
THIS IS A LIE!!! FALSE!!!




As you can see from my pictures, this eyeliner smudges like no other! It's crazy how much it smudges from oils! It even starts to speckle-off at some areas.
I hadn't even been wearing the eyeliner on my eyes for that long, maybe about 4-5 hours when it started to smudge!
Whenever I'm trying to find a good eyeliner, it needs to be able to last ALL DAY, at least 7-8 hours. This eyeliner did NOT hold up.

Another thing Innisfree claims for this eyeliner is that it is easily cleanse-able, without leaving any pigmentation and residue. While I find that it doesn't leave any pigmentation on my eyes, it is however quite hard to wash off! I always use an oil cleanser and then a water cleanser to wash off my make-up and sometimes even those 2 aren't enough to wash it off. It always takes me multiple tries, at least 2-3 times, with the oil cleanser to wash this eyeliner off, even when I do swatches on my hands.
In the end, I started to first take this eyeliner off with some thick, creamy lotion with a Q-tip first, then I would go back in with the oil cleanser to wash the rest off.

Overall, I wouldn't buy this eyeliner again. I don't think it's worth the money at all. I also feel like I have spent less money on cheaper eyeliner that worked better than this one. I hate that it smudges so badly and speckles-off at some areas. I hate that it takes forever for the ink to come out of the pen, even when I place the eyeliner upside-down. I constantly have to keep shaking the eyeliner or making swatches to try and make the ink come out. I also don't like how hard it is to wash off! I don't like having to rub my eyes so often to wash off eyeliner.
However, I did like that it was a pigmented black color, when the ink did work. I also really appreciate that the brush tip didn't pull/tug on my eyelid whenever I used it.

Rate (out of 5 stars): ⭐
I wouldn't recommend this eyeliner for anyone to use. It's not worth it.

Review: Dear, Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop

Hi Everyone! Today, I will be reviewing the highly acclaimed Dear, Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop. This is a vitamin C serum that has become a major cult favorite for many people of all skin types. I bought mine from Yesstyle.com , but there are many other places you can get it as well. I just find that their prices tend to be cheaper and there's always some sort of coupon you can find to make it even cheaper. A few months ago I reviewed another vitamin C serum that was a collaboration between Sokoglam and COSRX, this was the COSRX Triple C Lightning Liquid , you can check out my review of this serum by clicking on the link. I really enjoyed this vitamin C serum and I've even already bought a replacement. However, I also really wanted to try this serum from Dear, Klairs since I've heard so many good things about them. My original plan was to review these two vitamin C serums at the same time so that I could do a back to back comparison. However, life

Hi Everyone! Today I will be reviewing a product that I have bought a  lot  of... a LOT. I've been using this cream for over 3 years now. As you can see from the picture above, I've gone through multiple tubs of this cream! I actually use to have more tubs, but I like to re-purpose them and fill them with other products as well. I'm a huge fan of COSRX products. I really like that they're affordable while also actually showing results. I've tried many of their products and I'm sure I will continue to keep using them.  ~I'm also a HUGE fan of their pimple patches  which I've written a review for! Click on the link to go see it!~ Everyone has the occasional pimple, I don't think ever met a person who's never had at least 1 pimple in their life. However, we all need a way to help diminish these pesky red blotches! This Centella Blemish Cream by COSRX is a fast-acting spot treatment cream. It's suppose to help calm and reduce acn

Review: COSRX AHA/BHA Clarifying Treatment Toner

Hi Everyone! I will be discussing a very popular toner by COSRX. This is the AHA/BHA Clarifying Treatment Toner . The main reason I bought this toner to begin with was because I saw a review, I don't remember by who, that said they used this toner and noticed a big difference in their skin. They noticed that the little bumps they used to have on their forehead disappeared. This was the reason I bought it. I had these small bumps, they weren't really pimples because if you tried to pop it or put a pimple sticker on it, nothing came out. I've had these bumps for ages, so I was willing to try anything to try and get rid of them. AHA/BHA are a type of chemical exfoliant which can make a big difference in your skin. AHA - alpha hydroxy acid, EX: glycolic acid and lactic acid BHA - beta hydroxy acid, EX: salicylic acid It's important to gently exfoliate the skin daily to scrub off the buildup of dead skin, revealing beautiful, soft, hydrated skin.
