Product Review: NYC Waterproof Eyeliner

CVS is less than 2 minutes away from my house and I love it! Today, a good friend of mine needed to get something from there and she asked if I wanted to tag along. Of course my answer was yes because I absolutely love the makeup and hair products aisle. I wanted to get a plum shaded eyeliner. That was my mission for today. I've worn black eyeliner for many years. It gets a bit old after a while. Well, let me tell you, my friend and I went around the cosmetics aisle about 20 times trying to find the right plum eyeliner. What I wanted was a fat plum shaded pencil. We found a few fat pencils, but they didn't have plum as a shade. When we found a fat purple pencil from Rimmel London, it was too light so I put it back. The right shade was the one in NYC but since it was sealed with plastic, I couldn't open it to see if it was too thin. The pencil itself looked like the tip would be thin. After looking at other plum shades, I ended up getting the NYC Waterproof Eyeliner, and boy am I happy I didn't reconsider. This shade is perfect and its fat, just how I like it. Well, since I started to use it, I might as well post a review on it.

Product Review: NYC Waterproof Eyeliner

What is it: A not too fat, not too thin waterproof eyeliner. (shade: smoky plum)

Pros: Waterproof, bold color, smooth application, great staying power, cheap

Cons: not retractable, but that's not too important

Overall: I would recommend this to everyone! The color is bold and I love how smooth it just glides on. It's way better than my Eyeslicks by Cover Girl which has a bit of a chalky consistency. And best of all, it's cheap and it does what it's supposed to do.

Price: $3.99 a stick
