Review: HEROINE MAKE Smooth Liquid Eyeliner
 |
| Packaging is simple, nothing too fancy. |
 |
| Super-Fine Tip!! |
 |
| Only on stroke, top was a bit messed up. Second one was a fine stroke, and Third was swatched with a bit more pressure to show how thick you can draw your lines. |

| 9:19 PM, What my make-up looks like after. Eyeliner still dark, and I purposely did not retouch it through-out the day. I had school that day.. so lots of yawning being done! |

DESCRIPTION FROM SASA:
Kiss Me Heroine Make Smooth Liquid Eyeliner has a new and strong waterproof function, which can effectively act against tears, water, sweat or sebum on your face. The function is very long-lasting and has a precise contouring. The 0.1mm extreme fine point allows you draw precise and beautiful eyeliners every single time.
It is an excellent all-around product in which the incredibly fine point can help you freely sketch an inner eyeliner, where color is deep and black, brilliant and bright. The eye power can be immediately doubled. Kiss Me Smooth Liquid Eyeliner dries very quickly, so it can help you make a perfect look no matter how busy your mornings are. It is superiorly waterproof, anti-tear, anti-sweat, sebum resistant and totally waterproof. The color is long-lasting and is easy to use. Everyone can easily draw perfect eyeliner.
PROS:
- Super fine tip
- It's in a pen form (my favourite kind)
- Brush Tip applicator not felt!
- Stays on through-out the day
- Pigmented
- Does not smudge when I tear (especially after I yawn)
- Doesn't transfer down to my lower lash-line
- Convenient and travel-friendly
CONS:
- Pricier than the regular drugstore eyeliner (BUT SO WORTH IT)
- Might be hard to find in stores since it is a Japanese brand
- Is not actually waterproof
OVERALL RATING OUT OF 5:
♥♥♥♥♥
SUPER RECOMMEND THIS EYELINER
if you can get your hands on it that is. I got mine for about $22 CAD at an Asian store in my mall. I believe it's about the same price if I had bought it off SASA if I included shipping and tax. Despite its pricey-ness, the benefits outweigh the costs in my opinion. I have tried a ton of drugstore pen liquid-eyeliners, including Maybelline's Master Precise, NYX Skinny Felt Pen, L'oreal's Infallible 12HR Liquid Pen, Revlon's Colorstay, Physician's Formula Eyebooster and Topshop's Liquid Pen Line. I realized that felt tip pens (except for physician's formula, but it wasn't very pigmented or long-lasting in my opinion) dry out a lot quicker than brush tip pens, and also do not provide very great precision because of the felt tip.
I was almost about to buy the Kat Von D's Tattoo Eyeliner, but I opted for a Japanese one just because I felt like the more expensive Asian make-up products really do perform very well, even some of the drugstore brands they carry. Although I could just get a regular liquid liner, I PREFER PEN LIQUID LINERS because of convenience and ease!
On the subject that it is not actually waterproof as it claims to be, it does however hold up against tears (I know because I always tear up after I yawn), sebum, and sweat. I've always had a problem with all of my eyeliners prior to Kiss Me, smudging and transferring on to my lower lash-line.. so I end up looking as if I have major eye-bags, not enough sleep, or just looking like a panda (angry). But as for water with direct contact, it does fade a bit, and if you just rub it a bit it will smudge. Which I do not mind too much, it just makes it easier to remove after in the shower. It comes off with warm water and light rubbing. I doubt it will come off or smudge a lot when it rains.
