Pic from Boots.com. The reason I have not used my own image is because I tested this in the shop and disliked it! So I still wanted to provide a review for it, but no way I would have bought it. I heard a rave on youtube about these and so thought I would try them out. I tried this in Grunge which is the green one (pleasant name, huh?) The applicator was so long that it was so difficult toapply precisely, even on just my hand! The brush did not give a thin precise line, it kind of blobbed out and there was a clean line in the middle of the product, instead of applying the product in that straight line it applied around where the liner should have gone. Then I couldn't get the liner off my hand, it stayed on all day even after I had washed my hands loads and I had scratch it off with make up remover! I like staying power, but I don't want it welded to my skin so I have to scratch it off! It was only £2.99 but this product pretty much failed on every level for me.

Barry M Liquid Liner - Green
This review will be similar to the one on the blue liquid liner. The colour is quite and beautiful, however because the colour is shimmery I find it a little harder to apply because the light reflects off it, it is hard to see whether it is applying properly. Also I wouldn't say the colour is as bright as the blue, but it still shows up well. It does apply smoothly and has great staying power (however it is not waterproof). The nib is very sturdy and pointed so it doesn't bend and so it is easy to create clean and straight lines, however it is soft on your eyelids, I think it might be made of foam. For the price in comparison to higher end brands, you really can't go wrong, and although this is a lovely colour, it would be nicer without the light reflecting shimmer as it makes application more difficult and it takes away from the colour. Plus the colour is completely different to what the packaging advertises.

This eyeliner is fantastic! The colour is very pigmented and beautiful, it applies smoothly and has great staying power (however it is not waterproof). The nib is very sturdy and pointed so it doesn't bend and so it is easy to create clean and straight lines, however it is soft on your eyelids, I think it might be made of foam. For the price in comparison to higher end brands, you really can't go wrong!
