SmolderEYES
Besides nail polish, my other obsession lately has been eyeliner. Neutral shades, bold shades… I’m loving them all. I recently picked up a few of tarte‘s new SmolderEYES Amazonian Clay Waterproof Liners and they’re a great addition to my liner stash. (Which is rapidly growing at a pace I should probably slow down a little…) What I like about the liners is that they’re thicker than regular eyeliners, they’re almost like shadow pencils, so it’s really easy to use them on your lids to get a nice smoky eye going. (I’m also all about the smoky eye at the moment).
I tried four different shades – Navy, Olive, Golden Black and Fig – and they all had the same great color payoff and creamy consistency. These aren’t the kind of eyeliners that are going to drag across your lids or be scratchy, they’re very soft to the touch, which makes them super easy to blend once they’re on. They also conveniently come with a smudger tip at the other end of the pencil, so once you apply the liner, you can easily just flip it around and smudge it up. (I normally get about 30-45 seconds or so before the color sets and becomes hard to smudge). You can wear them alone or layer eyeshadow over them, but I found that for a simple, quick smoky eye (one that’s more daytime appropriate) just the liner was enough since it lasted all day. I was totally happy with all four shades, but I think if I had to pick a favorite, it would be Golden Black. It’s just a gorgeous dark black with a gold shimmer to it. So pretty!
