Makeup: Miss Hana Gel Eyeliner

Hello, hello! Guess what I'll be talking about today?
The super raved about, Miss Hana Gel Eyeliner!

I know I've been missing for a while, that's because I was busy with my finals and something personal came up so yea.. Was pretty caught up with all of that. Sitting for my final examination feels a little different as it's the last of my university life and that's it! Soon enough I'll be thrown into the harsh reality of the working world, hmm.. Not that keen though but I'm excited to challenge myself and big girls do them things #likeaboss!

Once again, thank you Natta Cosme for giving me the opportunity to do a product review on these babies! I really like how they did the little cute personal note on the side, it shows the effort put in (: Btw, they are made in Taiwan and said to be water and oil proof, smudge proof, long lasting, has a smooth texture and high intensity and rich color.

So, I was given the Stardust range to be reviewed which has the colors of 

02 Galaxy Black

04 Golden Brown

You can see the glittery surface from the one I have sharpened before.
Bought a mini version in the metal box from Carousell.

Here are the ones I bought from Carousell which already includes the sharpener. As you can see, the bottom of the eyeliner indicates whether it's the glittery ones (Stardust range) or the matte colored ones.

Top: Normal size (1.5g)
Bottom: Mini size (1.3g)

The 1.5g ones do not have codes to indicate the color
while the mini ones have.

Here's some info about the eyeliner

Sizes available: 1.3g and 1.5g

Colours: 

01 Night Black and 03 Choco Brown (matte colors), 

02 Galaxy Black and 04 Golden Brown (glittery colors)

Pardon me for the bare face, only wanna focus on the eyeliner (:
Captured under natural sunlight.

Both equally has the natural look but I prefer the Golden Brown as it is more subtle. They glide on easily, definitely agree on the point of having smooth texture for easy application. Also, you don't have to wait for them to dry like liquid liners. Color intensity is high, do not need reapplication or touch-up and the glittery look is not over, in fact, it is really pretty. Gives you that subtle touch of glam to it!

Captured under fluorescent lights.

Test #1: Waterproof ability? 

Did not smudge at all even with some gentle strokes under the running tap.

✓ Waterproof proven!

Test #2: Oil-proof ability?

Let's test it with a drop of baby oil!

Does not smudge or smear if you do not rub it, so I guess you can say it's oil-proof till certain extent. It smeared a little after I gently rub on it a few times but most of the product still stay perfectly in place, so..

✓ Oil-proof proven!

My opinion?

Overall, I really enjoy using this product as it is convenient for me to bring around and it can last all day with very minimum smudge, ideal for the busy women. Plus, the glittery touch really adds some glam to your simple look and it easily slides on, minus time taken for makeup! Perfect for lazy bums like me :p 

Only thing that I do not like is the fact that it gets blunt easily and frequent sharpening is needed. Some bloggers complaint of easy breakage but so far I have yet to face that problem. The eyeliner will melt easily under heat so make sure that you do not store it at extremely high temperature and/or direct sunlight places.

Tony Moly

So, recently my Korean classmate / friend went back to her hometown during our semester break. And my first thought, "TONY MOLY!" 

It's one of the famous makeup brands in Korea, widely used by the Koreans as it is of good quality yet affordable. I've been hearing about this makeup brand for a little while now from some of my friends and I've always wanted to try their gel liner even though I have never used one before (I'm currently a loyal eyeshadow user!) I've seen the product on my friend, and the color was nice, not too dark like the typical gel or liquid eyeliner from other brands. For me, I've always prefer something more natural looking unless I have to strut the runway or something. 

So.. After a whole week of waiting...

Me Tony Moly "Backstage Gel Eyeliner" is here! :p

I've chosen no.12, Pearl Black.

The brush is in the tip of the bottle, so there's no need for a purchase of your own brush and it is easily stored!

Pearl Black has some glitter in it, bling bling time! :D

What was my verdict on this product? Highly satisfied! The texture was smooth yet easy to manage, which is awesome for newbie noobs like me who have no whatsoever experience in using gel liner. The color was a shade of dark grey with a little glittery touch, perfect for both chic casual and glam look. Best part of all, it's water, sweat and sebum proof! Good for girls like me who applies eye cream before makeup, it prevents the "tint" that you have on your upper lid after some time and there's no need for touch ups! (Perfect for lazy girls like me! Teehee!)

I rate this: 10 out of 10 

(For it's price which is only RM23!, the easily manage texture, the brush that comes with it and the whole experience of using it, no wonder it's one of the BESTSELLERS!)

The end look of it after a whole evening, no smudges, no panda look! 

---------❤ ------------❤ -----------❤ ------------❤ -----------❤ -------------

Girls wouldn't be girls if they just buy what is needed right? I'm pretty sure that most girls would buy the extra something something that might come to use in the future when there is discounts! I know I would, most of the time! :D So, other than that gel eyeliner I bought, I've gotten something else with it. 

Tony Moly's Perfect Eyes Eyeliner!

I've chosen the color, Pearl Khaki.

The box packaging was really adorably sexy like the pencil itself, decorated  with a shiny surfaced of zebra stripes that adds on to its glam! Too bad I had thrown it away :( 

My verdict? The product was easy to be applied on. Just like the gel eyeliner, it was stated to be water, sweat and sebum proof BUT it smudges easily after a while :( On my first trial, I ended up looking like a panda after a few hours as it smudges all over the bottom of my eyes. 

I rate this : 5 out of 10

(The price was OK, the color was perfect and it's texture is smooth and easy to be applied on but it smudges and no girls would want to rock the panda look!) 

I shall end this post with my manicure and pedicure of the week! Rocking the cobalt blue with the lovely ombre shades of blue to celebrate the month of June! ❤ 

Have a great weekend! Much loves, xoxo.
