Tarte EmphasEyes Inner Rim Brightener

Hello lovelies!

For my first visit in Sephora, my very nice cousin, Kuya Yalcin, bought me some of my most craved make up stuffs.


One of them is this nude eyeliner, Tarte EmphasEyes. Dawn just asked me to look for a nude eyeliner and when I asked the SA in Sephora and she showed me this... I fell in love.


Here are the reasons why:



1. I love the packaging because it looks so clean and chic.


2. It's automatic so I don't need to sharpen it so no mess from residues from my other eye liners.

3. It's cruelty free! :)



4. The skinvigorating ingredients are a great plus.


Here are the other ingredients used.



5. Ample amount which will last me for a really long time. :)



6. It just won't budge meaning it is very long lasting and very much smudge proof! This swatch picture was taken after smudging the product and as you can see, such a bold, solid line as if no one touched it.

When you put it on, it lasts for the whole day and it really does brighten your eyes. As a demo, here is Dawn's lovely eye sans the Tarte EmphasEyes

and here is her eye with the liner on.

Such a pretty healthy looking glow. :)

This eyeliner really is the best one I've had so far. By far, it is the only liner I have that is truly smudge proof and lasts for the whole day.

However, there are things that I do not like about this product:
1. It is expensive for a student like me.
2. Tarte is not locally available.

But still, it was bought with my cousin's money and with all the love he could give his favorite cousin. :) So all in all I (and Dawn) are very pleased with this little beauty. It's my new love affair since I have none so far. :P


Have you ever tried putting on a nude eyeliner? Oh and... do join our give away! :)

Cheers,
LIZ

Haul Post: First Sephora Visit

Bonjour bellas!

I did say I'd do some make up shopping here and I did. :) It's my first time visiting a Sephora store and the personnel there were really nice. Here are my purchases. :)


Benefit



Although I already have an Erase Paste and Girl Meets Pearls, I just had to buy the set since it's cheaper to buy it than when you buy the items individually. Plus what I was really after was the Porefessional make up base. :)

I've always wanted to get my hands on one of these. :)

Tarte



This one is not really part of my purchase. Sephora, as some/most of you might now gives out a gift on your birthday when you sign up to become their member. They were kind enough to still give me my birthday gift even though my birthday had already passed. :)



For the next years, I'll just have to ask my aunt to collect the gifts for me and probably buy me some thing from there when they have a sale. :)

Well, that's my little make up haul for now. Thanks a lot to my cousin for buying all these for me. Will still be visiting other make up places to buy cheaper ones. Anyway, if you want us to review something just tell us or if you want to suggest any make up purchases for future references do tell us. :) That's all ladies!

Cheers,
LIZ
