Battle of the Eyeliners - Round 1: Loreal Super Liner VS Essence Superfine Eyeliner

HELLOOOOOOOO EVERIBARDEI.

Long time no see! School started and sucked everything once again. After completing this post, I'm back to the enormous pile of drawings that I should be starting on. Anyway, CNY is coming up, and I really don't want my relatives telling me that I've gained weight over the past year. It's really really a mood spoiler and it will probably result in me eating every pineapple tart in hesitation - HOW COULD THEY!?

So yes, I've been running (again -_-), although not very religiously, ever since the year started, and thought that 'hey, it'd be a good time to try out the fade resistance of some of the eyeliners!' I find that sometimes, the insane weather makes walking home from school, feels like I just ran a marathon. So, why not let's exploit the chance of leisure running, and test out the fade resistance of the eyeliners!

And the first two contestants are.....

Loreal Super Liner Black Laquer VS Essence Superfine Eyeliner Pen

BEFORE running:

So, I simply applied a slight winged eyeliner, with Essence on the left, and Loreal on the right. I didn't apply anything prior to the eyeliner, so this is tested based directly on my bare skin. I applied sunblock on my face, but I excluded the eye area.

AFTER running:

TADA! No smudges to both, I must say that they both did really well for the test. I wasn't expecting much of a change with Loreal's, but am pleasantly surprised with Essence. :) I usually apply Essence on a daily basis - to school. However if I intend to hang out after class with my friends for dinner/movies, I'll apply Loreal to save me the hassle of touching up and all that.

However, while bathing, I realised that Essence came off really easily with warm water, whereas Loreal stayed put until I gently rubbed it off. Funny how Essence managed to withstand heat and facial oil, but lost with lukewarm water! So, no Essence for sobfest movies or dramas!

Loreal Super Liner Black Laquer - $21.90 SGD
Essence Superfine Eyeliner Pen - $7.90 SGD (definitely less than $10!)

Essence brand make up can only be found in major Watson's store. I got mine from Bedok Central, and saw that Parkway has them too, so check their stuff out :)
