little white truths

I've no idea how I wound up with this product - it may have been from a subscription box or it may have been a points purchase from Bellabox.

What I do know is that, after using it a few times and discovering how crap it was (sorry Bloom!), it got thrown into the bottom drawer and I might never have used it again except that I've started defining my eyebrows and this is a great colour for that. So once I've finish the pencil I'm using now as part of my Project Pan, this one's next on the chopping block.

Eyeliners and I have never been great friends: because I have puffy eyes, all but a few great products transfer in a heartbeat. I spent my teenage years and early twenties wiping away the panda look 564 times whenever I went out, until I finally discovered the benefits of lining your eyes with a decent shadow.

Here's another taken outside in direct sunlight. I wiped it lightly on the left after a minute, and on the right after about ten minutes. So you can see that it doesn't stay put!

The above shot was taken just after application. You can see it's already starting to transfer.

The below was taken ten minutes after application: it's not faring well at all!


Below is what happens ten minutes after being applied to the waterline. The lines were super thick to start with: they're not now!
