L'Oreal Telescopic Liquid Eyeliner
So recently, I went on a liquid eyeliner kick. I don't normally wear any eyeliner on a daily basis, as it's not really necessary. But when I do wear it, I prefer a more dramatic look. Hence, liquid eyeliner seems to be the logical choice.
Liquid eyeliner is something that I would not consider buying highend in most instances, especially if it's just for black or brown. Liquid eyeliner is like mascara, i.e. you'll need to throw it out after 3 months anyway, so why spend a lot on it when you don't have to.
Which brings me to my recent trips to the drugstore, in search for a decent liquid eyeliner. Over the course of the last few weeks, I have purchased 6 different liquid eyeliners from various drugstores and I shall do separate review for each. Today, I am going to focus on the worst of the bunch: L'Oreal Telescopic Liquid Eyeliner.
Thankfully, I got this as a gift with purchase with my Telescopic mascara. So I didn't pay anything for it, nor would I ever want to. This is quite possibly the worst mascara that I have ever tried.
The applicator reminds me of a Sephora liner that I've tried last year. The tip is so stiff that it was difficult to distribute the colour evenly. This skips and drags on the eye lid. The applicator basically renders this eyeliner completely not use-able.
There's no reason to go into details about the formula, as the applicator basically prevents this eyeliner from ever looking even decent on the lids. The few times that I've tried it, I ended up having to remove it right away since the lines were so yucky.
Overall, I cannot recommend this product at all. Stay far away from it. Worst liquid eyeliner ever.

MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural
I am so proud of myself. I finally finished my MAC MSF Natural! For a person who never finishes anything, this is a huge achievement.
I think I got mine about 1 1/2 year ago. At the begining, I only used it as a touch up powder. While I found the finish to be decent, it really wasn't all that special than all my other powders.
Then I discovered that you can also use it as a powder foundation, and a new love is found.
I like that you can build this up to a medium coverage, without looking cakey. The finish is a nice natural matte. It lasts reasonably well on the skin. I love this so much that I've been using it consistently for the last 6 months.
I can certainly see myself using this in the future. In fact, I've already purchased a back-up for it. Love this product.

MAC Cheek Products
So I was bored the other day and decided to swatch some of my MAC cheek stuff.
I realize I didn't include any of my beloved MSFs. So I will get on that probably this weekend. But in the mean time, for your viewing pleasure (Click for larger picture):
