Now some people know or don't know I am kind of obsessed with make-up. I love playing dress up. Have since I was a kid and even though I may not wear a much make-up or any at all, it is so much fun to play with. Today I purchased Revlon Colorstay Creme Gel Eyeliner in 001 Black. It is my first encounter with a creme gel liner and with a coupon I figured, eh, why not. At CVS, the price is $9.99 USD and if you purchase $10 or more of Revlon products, you receive a $4 extra bucks coupon. Apparently tax counts with this too and it is calculated before coupons so WOO!
It comes with the gel creme in a pot which is 0.08 oz, a lid and a brush attached to the lid that hides in it. Now at 0.08, that is not a lot of product. Looking at other pots of creme gel liner, there is more than double that. Some at the drugstore for the same price, even. So the amount is a con for me. The quality though is quite decent, in my opinion. It glided on fairly smoothly and the brush, for me, did the job quite nicely. I am still new to using brushes so it took a few attempts to get a straight line on my eye.
Overall, with this first impression, I give this a 3.5/5. The color pay off was nice, it went on smoothly, the brush is nice but the amount of product you get is so minimal compared to most brands. I plan on purchasing a creme gel liner from L'Oreal here soon. And possibly even trying out ELF if I can find it. Hopefully, with more time and use, the score will go up. Thanks for reading. Any suggestions on what I should try next? Let me know in the comments!
