wihAchieving that perfect wing for the eye liner is a dream that many girls aim for. It is always a balance of good skill and a great product that allows you to glide that liner on your eyes seamlessly. However, even if you are skilled at this, a not so good product can mess up your eagle-eyed look. On the other hand, a good liner can help even a beginner create the perfect wing without much of a hassle. Today, we are going to find out about one such product that ensures the perfect wing, regardless of the fact that you are a pro or not. That is the Liquid Eyeliner, Matte, Eagle Eyes in the shade Black from NY Bae.
Consistency and Pigmentation Starting off with the consistency, this eyeliner has a liquid which is jet black and ensures one-stroke application. It takes some time to settle down on your eyes and create that perfect matte liner effect. It is quite long lasting on your eyes as it becomes smudge-proof after it dries down. However, removing it from your eyes are not a pain, which is the case most of times with waterproof and smudge-proof liners. A basic micellar water or cleanser is good enough to remove every bit of this liner form your eyes. Coming to the pigmentation, it is quite black when you first apply it on your lids. However, after it dries down, it is no longer that jet black as when you first applied it. It is still black and looks beautiful on the eyes, but the pigmentation can be worked upon here. But I am not complaining much on this point due to the price at which this is offered. You can find that information somewhere below. Application It has a thin applicator that allows you to draw a thin line as close as possible to your eyelashes. You can also build it up to create a dramatic look with that sharp and crisp wing. Basically, you can play around with this eye liner and come up with any look that you want. Owing to its flexible band, you can place your liner and drag it just the way you want to. Quantity and Price Point This eye liner comes in a good 5ml tube, which is a good quantity for a fairly new Indian brand. Given the fact that there are other popular brands in the market who offer eye liners in tubes of 3.5ml as well and at a higher price point, this seems quite a good quantity. Priced at Rs. 95, even college students can afford this. Although their offline presence is not that strong, you can get your hands on this product and other NY Bae products online at Purplle or NY Bae Store. Since, purple runs all the year sales, you can get this one even at further discounted price. Final Thoughts Overall, a great product at the given price point. A matte, black, comfortable, easy to work with eye liner is what every makeup beginner wants, and this product essentially caters to that target audience. The finally cherry on the cake for me is that this product or the brand claims to be cruelty-free, which is something I support whole-heartedly. So, after the lock down period is over, try your hands at using this eye liner from NY Bae. Trust me, a bold or a subtle look, you can rock the day with this one. When every other online shopping portals were busy shelling out great discounts on Women’s day, I was very surprised that Nykaa had nothing to offer when I checked the app in the morning. It felt strange, as an app that is primarily for women is not offering any discounts on the day dedicated to womanhood. But to my pleasant surprise, it had a flash sale scheduled from 6 – 8 pm of the same day. Now I was ready to log on to the Nykaa app to dig into the great offers, which promised flat 50% discount on selected Nykaa products.
Eagerly, on dot 6 pm I fired up the Nykaa app and started browsing through the range of products made available to the users. Of which, I picked up a few. Here are the products I picked up from the Nykaa sale:
Overall, my final thoughts on the sale is that it was nice, but a few more products from Nykaa’s kitty could be offered to its customer base along with its capacity to handle traffic deftly can be worked upon. With spring in full swing, we can already feel the warmth in the air. Being a spring-child, I love everything about this season; a little bit of chill and a bit of warmth. So, keeping up with the momentum of this season that bids adieu to the chill and welcomes the warmth of summers, I recently got the Huda Beauty Warm Brown Obsessions palette on my birthday. Now, although cool-toned colors look soothing and stunning when the makeup is done right, I personally believe warm colors suit Indian skin type most.
This palette by Huda screams warmth from the packaging to the products itself. A mix of 8 matte colors and 1 gorgeous shimmery copper color is sure to take your breath away. Justifying the name, this palette includes some beautiful browns, reds, and oranges, but in heated tones that can amp up your look. All the colors in this eyeshadow palette are buttery soft, highly pigmented, and quite easy to work with. Blending is an easy game with this palette. Since, this is the only variant from the obsessions range by Huda Beauty that I have tried, the pigments in this one have convinced me to get my hands on the other variants as well. Although apparently this might look like a small palette due to its condensed size, however, being highly pigmented, you will take quite a long time to hit pan for these eyeshadows. The neutrals in these palettes are buildable, which allows you to make your mistakes and rectify. On the other hand, you have to be really careful with the reds and oranges in this palette. From a warm day time look to a sultry night time look, with this palette you can play around and create versatile looks. What’s more? Being lightweight and compact in packaging, you can carry these eyeshadows around without the hassle of carrying multiple palettes. Now, let’s talk about the price point. This palette is available online for Rs. 2500. As we all know Huda Beauty products are a tad expensive in India, still I will recommend you to get one for yourself. Why? Let’s look at the pros:
