I had been dying to buy this product for the longest time and I finally did it! And I love it!  My only criticism is that its so small! It changes any eyeshadow or powder product into a waterproof liquid eyeliner and it damn well works! Its expensive for such a small bottle but Inglot's Duraline is even more expensive!

I don't use it every single time I put makeup on but on the days I can wear colourful eyeliner I do and its the best.  It is fast drying as well and you need to squeeze the little bottle for product to come out but be careful not to squeeze too hard.


The product stiffens the brush but it washes out easily enough with a bit of soap and water in a few minutes and doesn't stain the brush hairs.

I definitely recommend this product!

Storytime

Australis is an Australian cosmetics brand that has been in operation for almost 30 years the website does not give an actual date for their establishment of business.

I have used their products over the years mainly lipsticks and liquid eyeliners.  I recently changed to cream liner and using a brush to apply it but I wanted to see why I stopped liking it.

This liquid eyeliner has a nice ink like look, not a watery formulation.  The wand is hard with a flexible tip and its quite short.  This is a regular formulation, it is not a long wearing product but it does not purport to be a long wearing product.

One issue I have though with it, is that when you are lining your eye, it skips and creates a  ragged edge which no body wants with liquid eyeliner.  I wore this to lunch and it was warm and I started to sweat and it dropped on to my eye and the liner just disintegrated.

This type of wand with flexible slightly thicker tip gives you the ability to create a thick or thin line.


Start time Australis Liquid Eyeliner 11am to 1:30pm.

I recommend this product only because you can work with it.

I have worn black winged eye liner since I was 14 years old, only using liquid eyeliners.  I was pretty damn devoted to it and only in the last two years I have been trying to find a good cheap alternative to liquid eyeliner.  I still love liquid eyeliner but when it is summer and I am sweating like a pig on a spit, the liquid eyeliner will run, transfer and just look a total mess.

Australia didn't stock E.L.F. Cosmetics until recently and I found my pot of eyeliner at Kmart.  I had read good reviews on this at Beautypedia and it is insanely cheap! So when I tried it I loved it instantly.  Its pigmented, easy to apply and appears to be sweat proof to a point as I wore it to my step aerobics class and only after the intensity of that class did I start to get a light transfer.  I have posted that picture here and it also appears on the Rimmel Magnif'eyes Shadow and liner in Kissed by a rose gold product review on this blog.

I was browsing around at Priceline looking at cosmetics, and I love black liquid eyeliners but have wanted to try out and I found this Models Prefer what I thought was a gold liquid eyeliner.

As a quick swatch it looked great! I thought it would look good against a black liner for an accent.  It was very cheap only AUD $9.99.

• Color is very bland and diluted
• Gold glitter very obvious
• Starts falling off onto the top of cheekbones
• Smears and transfers
• Will stay on for two hours 

I would not recommend this eyeliner whatsoever.
