In2It Waterproof Gel Liner in Very Black

The easiest way to make my eyes pop is to add liner on my upper lid. It's also the easiest especially on days when I'm in a hurry. So before, when I don't have the leisure to check my make-up often since I'm busy, I'd skip make-up altogether. That stopped when I discovered In2It's waterproof gel liner. I already have it in dark brown and gold but after reading blogs, I discovered that I missed one more color and that's black - very black. 

 

What I really love about this product is it doesn't melt. It does fade but it doesn't melt down on your lower lid which is embarrassing especially when you don't know and you're walking around the mall or having coffee with friends. Yuck.

So when I discovered this liner from Liz a.k.a. Project Vanity, I did not think twice!

It delivers much more than my expensive branded liners - for only PHP379.75. The name color is so true. Very black. It's the blackest black even with just one swipe. The texture is creamy so you have to wait a bit and let it set.

After five hours - Right

You may see a bit of the product fading. I guess I'm okay with that as long as it doesn't smudge and melt. 

So overall, I really like this product and recommend this to everybody and if ever this comes out in more colors, I'd sure buy them!

IN2IT Waterproof Gel Liner

I stumbled upon the IN2IT Waterproof Gel Liner from Liz's blog - Project Vanity. I already saw this before but hesitated to buy because it could be just one of those waterproof eyeliners but still smudge at the end of the day. After reading Liz's blog regarding the Waterproof Gel Liner, I knew I had to buy it. So a few days after, the BF and I went to SM to buy some toiletries from Watson's. I saw the IN2IT counter and immediately asked for the Gel Liner. I asked if there were other colors and she said that there's dark brown (which included a sharpener).

I added this picture because I want to explain how it really works. First, yes it's waterproof talaga and super long wearing. That I can attest to! Really no smudging. I haven't used the sharpener yet but I will soon. The SA told me to let it dry first before trying to rub it while I was testing it at the counter and true enough, after a few seconds, it dries up and didn't smudge at all! It's really smooth and the application is just a breeze. One perfect swipe is all you need. In my case, it takes a few swipes because I want it darker and thicker. Definitely no bleeding and running.

I actually put this product to the test. I applied it in the afternoon, went to work, then played tennis. With all the sweat and humidity, it did not smudge. Actually, during breaks, I try to wipe my under eye because it might be bleeding or running and I didn't see any brown smudges on my towel. Nice, huh?

The only thing I haven't tried is putting it on my waterline since I don't really do it.

Took these pictures after tennis and see? It's still there! Yey!

What do you think?

In2It Waterproof Eyebrow Colour

During my brother's wedding, the make-up artist shaped by eyebrows for it to frame my face. The bad thing about that is she shaved it too much. After removing the make-up, my brows were so bare they were embarrassing. I knew that I have to buy either a pencil or powder or gel for my eyebrows. Since I am a fan of Project Vanity and I saw her blog about this product, I got curious and bought this right away. I was actually considering Face Shop's Brow Powder Duo (last photo) but it was more expensive compared to In2It. Also, when the SA tried it on me, the color was too dark and since now I have sparse hair on my brows, it wouldn't look that natural.

Here's the photos of my recently bought eyebrow powder:

Expiration date - 2015. Yey.

Proof of purchase - just PHP299.75! Not bad!
Here's a photo of my bare eyebrows - you can see that the outer part is sparse and needs help!
Here's a photo of the revived brows. I just follow the shape of my eyebrows and voila! It looks natural, not too dark and also it stays long on my eyebrows!

By the way, here's a photo of The Face Shop's Brow Powder Duo

Pros:

• First of all, it's super affordable
• There are three colors to mix around with
• It's compact, not bulky at all
• It comes with a brush
• It has a mirror!
• Long wearing
  

Cons:

• Brush is too stiff, might need to buy a new one

Overall, I love this product! This great for everyday use and it's nice because it stays on for a long time. No need really for retouches. I could leave this at home which means less hassle for me.
