L.A. Girl FINELINE (Long Lasting, Fine-tip Eyeliner) Review + Product Comparison

Hello bunnies!

     I've been raiding the metro for a good eyeliner pen. It was quite a challenge because I tried couple of products but didn't worked out fine. I'll be mentioning 3 products today for comparison but I'm only doing a brief explanation for 'em.

     Let me start with my first ever eyeliner pen. I've been visiting HBC for couple of months looking for new, good products to try out and there I found an affordable eyeliner pen from their San-San product line. I bought it right away and got the shade of brown since the black one has been sold out. I really want to try it out, I paid for the brown one for almost a hundred only (I think - to be updated).


     When I got home I opened it and tried it out. To my surprise, it has good pigmentation. The packaging is nice and sturdy. It has a felt tip and dries out fast after the application. I was trying to wear it during the day but unfortunately, after couple of hours, I felt my eyelids are kind of itchy. I didn't mind it at first but I really do feel itchy on the part where I put on the eyeliner pen. So I cleanse my face, tone it and moisturize. What I really like about the pen is it has good pigmentation, very convenient and of course affordable. But then I don't like the way it has some kind of effect on my skin because it gave me a "minty-itchy" feeling while I'm wearing it. If this doesn't happens to you, well, lucky you. I don't know why I had that feeling but then if you have "not so"sensitive skin, this might go for you.

    Second is the Elf eyeliner pen which I got from SM Manila. I went to the Elf counter to get an eyeliner pen since I've read that it is good. I tried it at home and YES, it has good pigmentation AT FIRST. But I got REALLY REALLY disappointed when I applied it over my eye shadow and the pen got ruined that easy. I think I have to use it for twice and throw it afterwards because after I put it on it completely dried out. I tried to swatch it but I got nothing after that. That's really bad. And again, if it doesn't happen to you, you got a good purchase.
   
     And finally when me and my family went to SM Mall of Asia one Sunday, me and my mom accidentally came across the L.A Girl counter and the one who assisted us offered me a free makeup. She put on the makeup and she introduced me their eyeliner pen which she said they have it for like months or a year then (I think) and it haven't dried out yet even after applying it over the eyeshadow. To my surprise, it gave me a good pigmentation and it still has the same pigmentation even after the application. They have 5% off that time so my mom decided to buy couple of products from them including the eyeliner pen and she gave me the products instead. We got the eyeliner pen for Php 300.00 that time because of the sale although I'm not sure about how much is the original price.


So here it is. It has a black container and classic L.A Girl logo on it. It's pretty good and perfect I recommend this to my readers to try this out. IT'S WORTH THE DEAL! 5 of 5!

I hope this helps! See you in my next post!

xoxo




P.S
For the Elf Eyeliner, Sorry I forgot that I threw the pen already so I wasn't be able to take a picture of it again since my camera's memory card can't be retrieved anymore.
