A bold liquid eyeliner with precision applicator!
I’ve tried some of So Susan’s other products, and the way I can tell if a brand is good is by their black eyeliners. If it’d dry, crumbly, hard to apply you know the company just throws out any old rubbish – the eyeliner test is my definitive way to tell if a brand is worth it. That’s why I was so happy to receive the So Susan Mesmer-Eyes in my Pink Parcel Subscription box.
Firstly I wrote on my hand – how are the lines? Straight. Dark? Very. Easy to use the applicator? Indeed. I was on to a winner. Now that’s all well and good. How does it apply to my eyeline? Unbelievably easy. It’s dark and bold in one stroke. The pigmentation, and liquid properties, allows it to glide and stay flawlessly on top of my eyeshadow without losing the colour, or making it grey out.
One thing to look out for though is if you get it somewhere you don’t want it – it’s hell to remove. When the liquid drys, its kind of vinyl-like, sitting on top of the surface in a matte plastic way. It’s easy to remove with micellar water, or my Dermalogica Cleansing balm, and comes off as a layer all in one.
Bottom Line: A stunning, dark black eyeliner that does the job. Just be careful applying it!
