Works okay if you can draw line fast and get lashes on it, and line has to be thick
A while back I tried an adhesive eyeliner for the first time. I had never heard of it before, so I honestly thought it was going to just be a gimmicky product and not actually work. I figured if something like that actually worked, why hadn’t I heard of it already?! I mean, lash glue can be a pain to work with. To have an eyeliner and lash glue in one, that’s amazing! That seemed like something people would be raving about, but I hadn’t even heard such a thing existed. But, I figured I’d try it out. I’m glad I did! That one actually worked well. It did end up drying out fast, but it worked. So, since then, I have been trying out different ones.<br /><br />This has a felt tip. The eyeliner is pigmented, very black. The adhesive is sticky, but not extremely sticky. You have to work pretty darn fast with this. I have really small, really hooded eyes. So, when I wear liner, I like to tight line my lash line. I don’t want to be taking up the tiny lid space that’s actually seen with black liner. In order to tightline with a really thin line like I like, I usually move pretty slowly. Unfortunately, I can’t do that with this liner. I have to move fast if I don’t want it to dry and lose its stickiness. But, even if I move fast, the thin line like I like doesn’t cut it. The liner doesn’t seem all that sticky. But, it can be....<br /><br />I always want to test adhesive liners before applying them to my eye. I don’t know if I’ll have some sort of reaction, so I figure it’s better to be safe than sorry. So, I draw a little line of it in my forearm. While I’m doing that, I give the liner a little test to see how it works. I drew the little line on my forearm. Then, I took a lash and stuck it to that line. The lash stuck really well to the line. It stayed on it well, even when I gave it little tugs. After that, I was really excited to try it on my eyes! I didn’t have any sort of reaction to the liner, so it was time to try it on my eyes....<br /><br />I drew a thin line on my eyes, grabbed the lash and went to apply it. It stuck great to the last part of the line I had just finished drawing, but wouldn’t stick to the area where I started drawing the line. I didn’t know why, so I wiped it off and tried again. The same thing happened. Then, I figured it probably dried quickly, so I needed to work faster. So, I had everything ready to go and drew the line quickly, then went to apply the lash. That time it stuck a little better and actually stuck to whole line, but it kept lifting. I finally got it figured out where it would stick well - I had to draw a thicker line and had to be quick. Unfortunately, I don’t like thick liner, so it just won’t work for me.<br /><br />Overall, the liner works well if you’re able to work very fast and like thicker liner. I only like tight-lining my lashes with a very thin line, so this liner isn’t for me. But, like I said, if you don’t mind thick liner and are able to work fast drawing the line and getting the lashes stuck to it, this could work for you.
