Everything held up pretty well except my skin was pretty dehydrated. That is normal with flying though & there’s not much I can do about that! The mascara did make my under eyes faintly grey though so I’ll be trying another one next time. I tried to sleep through my first flight so I assume that’s why! I STILL had blush on…man I love the TARTE blushes! My eyeshadow also didn’t budge, props to Maybelline. The Color Tattoos are seriously an incredible creation for me!

Any suggestions on a mascara that won’t transfer for the flight back? What do you wear when you travel?

Flashback time! Who remembers Styli-Style? I loved them oh so much & was absolutely time warped with excitement when I heard they were coming back into stores near you! What’s different about the brand? They are definitely more cutting edge! Today I’m showing you a good example of that by swatching two of their Styli-Style Line & Seal 24 Hour Semi Permanent Eyeliner shades…& they’re really something!

From Styli-Style: Gel-like formula glides smoothly onto the skin and will remain there all day long – no reapplication needed! Available in 16 fun and wearable shades, this product is a basic necessity for everyone.

First of all, let’s look at packaging. They really though things out & went the logical route by letting you see on the outside exactly what you’ll be getting inside. If there’s glitter, you’ll see glitter. If it is orange, it will be orange. This is way handy for when you have a lot of eyeliners (don’t judge me) & are looking to snap one up fast. It is also awesome when you’re doing the actual shopping because if you don’t want something with glitter, you don’t have to guess!

The formula on these is great! They are super soft & apply like a kohl then set into a long wearing shade. This gives you time to smudge it out if you like! This also doesn’t flake on me which some long wear liners do after about 8 hours. Fading was minimal because once they set, they REALLY set!

The two shades I have are Tangerine & Black Glitter. Both shades are really nicely pigmented (check out how black that black is!) but they’re also a bit more special. Tangerine is a gorgeous shimmery orange with a flash of light pale gold. I don’t think I’ve ever had an orange eyeliner that was long wearing…where was this last fall! Black Glitter is an amazing shade because it is so pigmented yet you can still see the silver glitter! I don’t know if I’ve ever had a long wearing sparkling glitter eyeliner in black that was truly black! They’re usually that disappointing faded black shade.

I highly recommend checking Styli-Style out as it hits stores near you! I love these liners & was totally impressed on both lasting power & pigmentation. 2 big thumbs up! These retail for $5.99 each.

Do you remember Styli-Style? I’ve been hard at work putting their new products to the test & I have to say I’m really impressed! I have more to show you including some jumbo eyeshadow sticks, blush sticks, & glitter lip stains!

This may shock you guys (NOT!) but I find myself way impressed with Rimmel lately. I have been anticipating these new releases because I watch quite a few international youtubers & they tend to get things first! FleurDeForce, who is pretty much gorgeously amazing, has been recommending these handy liners & comparing them to NARS. I quickly jotted down their names & impatiently waiting…& now they’re here!

Guys I am SO impressed. First of all, let us talk about this black shade. So soft, so creamy so smudgeable, SO waterproof! This is also so black! I think this rivals some of my blackest blackest & I feel like maybe it is time to compare my blackest liners after this! Obviously when I think waterproof, I think waterline. & this actually works for me! I am so impressed! After about 4 hours it still looks nice & after 6 I could see wear. For me, that is wonderful & I do currently have allergy eyes so I’m excited to see how this works when my eyes are dryer! If I apply it to my eyes (not the waterline) it lasts all day.

Sparkling Black & Brown are both big hits for me as well! I personally don’t wear dark brown eyeliner because I feel like I prefer black but I do love a good medium brown shade! This is a gorgeous cool toned medium brown with some barely there bronze shimmer. I’ll have to see if this dupes any of my high end medium browns.

This Sparkling Black is a unique & lovely surprise. Normally, blacks with shimmer or glitter just look off to me. After I apply them I always think “That would look better just black.” While I still prefer black, this is a gorgeous shade of graphite PACKED with silver glitter.  want to call them flecks…but they are super fine but a tad larger. This is the first sparkling black where the glitter doesn’t irritate me, transfers well, &actually lasts! This has real pigment to me instead of just a skipping glitter liner. I think this will be amazing with a pretty smoky eye!

I felt the need to post about these ASAP because they’re new to the US Rimmel line & I honestly haven’t seen much coverage! Have you checked these out? What shades look good to you? Would you guys be interested in a post or video about my black eyeliner favs & fails?
