My latest favourite product.



Only a little post today, but I really wanted to write about this as I know how much I rely on word of mouth to try a new product. Recently, I purchased MAC fluidline eye-liner gel. If you are anything like me and are completely hopeless with eyeliner pencils, then you'll know how gutted I was when my allergic eczema started reacting to all forms and brands of liquid eyeliner. Mostly it was all drugstore brands, but it made me far too nervous to spend 3 times as much on an expensive brand that might do the same thing! Anyways, to cut a long story short I had wanted to try the MAC alternative for a long time and they gave me a tester pot. I used this for a couple of weeks and had no reaction. As well as no reaction, I found that I really enjoyed this eyeliner compared to the drugstore alternatives that I had been using. The consistency is much more like gel than liquid, which helps a lot with smudging and removing mistakes along the way. It spreads very easily without running down your face. It also seems to have incredible lasting power throughout the day which I love.


This may however be to do with the fact that I have been consistently using MAC paint pot peintures primer for about a year and a half which I also love. The one I own is in the shade bare study and it's not only great as a primer, but brilliant for brightening up dark eyelids on days that you can't be bothered to do a full face of make up. They also have a very pretty pigment which I love, I've tried to get a good view of in the photo below for you :) (Excuse the state of my nails here!)

 In combination, these two products work perfectly together and I could not recommend them more. I think they are around £15 each. I would also recommend MAC to anyone with allergic or problematic skin, as they assured me that when I bought the eyeliner if I had any problems with it, they would give me a full refund, so go nuts! :)

These are the colours I am currently using, but feel free to try the other variations, there are many and they are all awesome.
