Urban Decay Ink For Eyes

Today's review is for two different shades of Urban Decay Ink For Eyes cream based liners.The first shade is in Zero which is black and the second shade is in Pyrotechnics which is a clear glittery cream. These creamy eye liners are so easy to use that even I can use them as you can see in my swatch a perfect cat eye without all the mess. If my shaky hands can get an even line then anyone can! And if you haven't noticed yet the weird but fun coffin shaped compact is travel friendly complete with a mirror and dual sided brush. One side on the brush is for lining while the smudger side is not only great for blending in but works as an eraser when you want to clean up some of the product. I'm posting some product info from he manufacturer below before I get to my results. You'll have to excuse me for not adding a photo with the pyrotechnic look because of the fact that it's a clear cream gel with only fine glittery specks (no color base) it would not come up for anything with my sh*t faced camera! You need a shadow on your lids to emphasize the glitter but it does make for a beautiful holographic glittery eye look. I'm so upset I couldn't capture it because it came out so gorgeous on my lids. When I have time I'll try to re-do the pyrotechnic with eye pigments. Stay beautiful! XOXO

Ink For Eyes Cream Eyeliner

More precise than a pencil, more forgiving than a liquid. Ink for Eyes cream eyeliner gives you the best of both worlds in a sleek, sexy case. It's everything you want in a cream eyeliner! More precise than a pencil, more forgiving than a liquid, this super-smooth formula offers more control, play time, and buildable coverage than your average liner.

                                 

Pro: creamy, glides easily,long lasting formula, fool proof, nice applicator, travel friendly case with mirror, cruelty free, precision lining, great for cat eye    Con: a bit pricey, you need loads of eye makeup remover-it's not a problem just thought I would mention it and you get an idea of how nicely put it stays on your skin.

Con: For shade Pyrotechnics: no color pigments at all in this glittery based cream liner. it shouldn't be classified as a liner because the brush is worthless. You can hardly grab any product with the liner brush making it a waste of time. There is nothing to line with this. I had to use my pinky which grabbed lots of product and covered my lids nicely for a glittery look. It does show up like a gorgeous holographic glitzy effect and also with a eye shadow color beneath, My only problem is that this doesn't line your eyes so it's not a liner. I love this shade but maybe if they put it in a pot without the brush people wouldn't get the impression you use it as an eye liner. This is more for special effects eye looks.

My results: I found this cream liner easy to use with a wonderful long lasting formula. The packaging is also fun and unique. It's in this coffin shaped compact about almost 4 inches in length with a mirror on one side which is narrow like the case. The product is lined narrowly along the case lengthwise at 2.5 grams in weight. It's perfect for precise lining for everyone to use, you don't have to be some makeup guru. With a little patience you can go from subtle lined eyes to more buildable dramatic looks. I actually get it right on the first try dabbing the liner brush in some product and gently running the brush along my lower lids above my lash line in one stroke. If I need more intensity I just outline it with fatter strokes by using the side of the brush. The formula is long lasting, smudge proof and non irritating. IIt is a little pricey but you need very little product and it's worth it for a good quality creamy eye liner. And when the product runs out you can always use the case to add more gel/cream liners that they sell in pots. It lines your water line just as nicely without any fuss. I'm so upset I couldn't grab a shot of the pyrotechnic on my eyes because it is beautiful! For me pyrotechnics isn't an eye liner, just a nice creamy glittery base. The specks of glitter are super fine and give off a slight holographic effect under lighting. Also when you want to remove the product off your eyes you will need a lot of makeup remover because it really is a strong formula.  I'm going to give these liners a collective 4.5 starfish rating. It could have used more product for the price but hey it's worth it. Stay beautiful!  XOXO
