E is for EYELINER!



SANA Super Quick Hazel Crayon Eyeliner

I picked it up this weekend since it was this lighter “hazel” brown color and boasted being water proof. I LOVE IT.
I loooove it…

I just wore it as a top liner only in the above photo. No black liner or lashes, just a little light brown eyeshadow and light mascara on the top lashes. It’s a gorgeous shimmering shade and glides on easily. It’s also quite waterproof. Had to use eye makeup remover last night to get it all off so I’m glad it lives up to that. I have a few other SANA makeup items and was happy with them. This liner also reminds me of my brown Shu Uemura cream liner only it’s easier to apple

The website for it is quite pretty and features Maya Mori. The liner is targeted for a half-eye look. I just like it because it’s lighter than my Dolly Wink brown pencil liner. I’m going to be using this daily for a while, I’m so happy with it!

There’s even a little Youtube instructional video for this specific eyeliner.

I know, I actually haven’t used a FAT CRAYON liner in yeaaaaaaaaaaars, like we’re talking 5+ years! But this color seemed so perfect and I’m SO happy I bought it. Plus it’s a turn style not sharpen style too (thank god b/c sharpening pencil liners is a gross mess.)

Its super pretty!!! It’s so perfect in its subtlety.

Haha I opened that video and left it to load and a minute later surprised myself with the music C: I love japanese makeup tutorials tho.

jenny said

Yes, yes! It’s subtle but still adds a bit of drama, agreed!

So much more natural. ^ ^ I’ve always wanted to switch to brown eyeliner and mascara, but too scared it just wouldn’t have the same effect on my eyes. (Monolids are hard to deal with!!)

Also, what cons are you wearing? Mad pretty!

jenny said

Black vs brown, there is a definite change in look, even on me. For a while though I wore black every day and I began hating my eyes without it, even in brown I hated it! I forced myself to start doing dark brown instead just because I didn’t like feeling like that. Now I switch it up all the time but go through periods of loving just brown This is a change still though because it’s SO light in color!

Lenses are Sugar Candy Hazel — http://sushi-cat.net/2011/09/11/sponsored-post-secreteyesorg-sugar-candy-hazel/

Probably, but it’s hard to tell right now since it’s cold here and I just got it. I didn’t notice any smudging and it took makeup remover to get off. It’s definitely water proof.

You look beautiful!! the crayon looks interesting.. I like the shimmer!

jenny said
October 25, 2011 (2 days ago) @ 10:33 am

Thank you! Yeah I haven’t used a crayon in a long time because I like thin lines but this seemed like a fun purchase \/

jenny said

Exactly, great for the office!

LOL I know right, I’m as surprised as you, I just switched to a new full coverage BB Cream and I’ve been clear (thank god) for a few weeks now *knock on wood* also my Pen is kind to me hahahahaha

Wow, looks good on you! Have you tried it as a bottom liner? Would like to know if it smudges easily if applied on bottom of the eyes like in the video. ^^

jenny said
October 25, 2011 (2 days ago) @ 10:37 am

I just got it this Sunday so I don’t have a good pic of it worn like that but I did wear it on half my bottom line today at work, took this just now! — http://sushi-cat.net/pics/sanahazel10251.jpg

Oh how lovelly color! I love brown eyeliners *-*

jenny said
October 25, 2011 (2 days ago) @ 10:38 am

Me too. I used to feel so ugly without black liner every day so I made a change

You look so pretty. That eyeliner looks good on you. Love the brown colour instead of the usual harsh black liners out there.

jenny said
October 25, 2011 (2 days ago) @ 10:40 am

Yeah, I’ve gotten better at lightening up my makeup in recent months. I used to only ever use liquid black or else I felt weird and ugly! So I forced myself to use dark brown instead sometimes. Now I have a light brown option as well!

They sell that at my work! It’s a bit expensive and I never knew how it looked on someone but it’s sooo cute on you! Must buy myself one now!

 
Sachie said
October 25, 2011 (2 days ago) @ 3:33 pm

Ooh this looks great! I’ve been looking for a good brown liner since I’ve been using make up forever’s copper liner and i’d like something a little more toned down!
SANA products are great

I’ve always wanted to make brown eyeliner work…. but black always seems to rule on me. Maybe I’ll try a deep, deep brown next time…
