Product Review: Meowliner by Skinpotions


At this time and age, convenience is something everyone is looking for.

In comes the stamping craze, from eyeshadow to eyebrows, people in the makeup industry has sought innovative ways to save girls (and boys) time and make their lives easier.

I have always been too intimidated by statement winged eyeliners/cat eyes and have opted to go small, almost imperceptible (wings), for my everyday makeup look. This is so I can minimize the possibilities of lopsided wings. So when I saw this winged eyeliner stamp, I got excited!

WHAT TO LOVE

CLAIM TO FAME: An innovative dual-ended stamp eyeliner that’s smudge-proof and water-resistant

FAST FACTS: Stamping tip on one end quickly imprints a winged look onto outer corner; fine-tipped liner on opposite end completes the look by connecting thin to thick lines on the lash line; easily lets you perfect your cat eye game

PERFECT FOR: Eyeliner newbies

HOW TO USE

Stamp the winged part of the eyeliner on your outer eye. Using the same eyeliner, connect it on the rest of your lid by using the other side.

It has a dual-ended tip with one having a traditional (which is slighty bigger/fatter than the standard pen eyeliners and is reminiscent of markers - it even smells, albeit faintly, like one) felt tip end that has a nice bend to it and is great at making thin and thick lines, while the other, has a perfectly-sized winged tip that is meant to be used by pressing/stamping on to the corners of the eyelids.


It is very easy to use, one just has to make sure it is aligned by placing across each other carefully to ensure even wings. It took me a couple of attempts to get used to it, but after getting more comfortable with it, the results I got were amazing!


I wasn't expecting much from it, to be honest. For P350, it was moderately priced. I was thinking it wouldn't be as pigmented as my other eyeliners and will probably smudge and run on me (the formula, is a little on the liquidy side). I wasn't really bothered as I only intended to use it as a stencil and layer on my preferred/usual eyeliner if worse comes to worst.

But, I was in for a pleasant surprise! Not only did it perform well in terms of making wings, it was also really black and matte, which is exactly what I want my eyeliner to be! Plus, it was pretty long lasting/smudge proof to boot!


Now, I can make perfect cat eyes in a jiffy! Definitely recommending this to those who don't want to spend too much time doing their eyeliners and to those who are struggling creating even wings.

P.S. If you're still on the fence about getting this, local beauty blogger, Martha Sta. Barbara a.k.a. the Beauty Junkee, has this on her list of top/best eyeliner for 2017 plus, local YouTube sensation, Anne Clutz, gave this a thumbs up/stellar review!

And that is it for today, makeup lovers, see yah next time!
