My Review of NYC Flat Liner Eye Pencil

Originally submitted at Fragrance Direct

Draw thick and thin lines without tugging or pulling with N.Y.C. New York Color Flatliner Jumbo Eye Pencils. This unique new shape allows for easier application, making lining and shading trouble-free.


Inconvenient Shape!

Pros: Good colour payoff

Cons: Silly shape

Best Uses: Anytime

Describe Yourself: Colourful, Creative, Casual

This is a nice product, great for lining eyes or using as a base colour on the lids before a shadow. However, the major downside is the shape of the pencil, which means you have to have a specific NYC Flat Liner sharpener to be able to sharpen it. These are really hard to come across, especially in the UK and I have had to order mine from ebay which means I've paid more for the sharpener (inc p&p) than for the actual liner! It would be helpful if this fact was made clear when purchasing the liner, or if the sharpener was sold alongside it.

Pros: Nice colour, Moisturising

Cons: Very sheer

Best Uses: Everyday

Describe Yourself: Creative, Casual, Colourful

This is a nice lipstick, but it is very sheer which I personally don't tend to go for. I would rather use a lipstick with more colour pay off, and if I want a sheer look I will go for a lipgloss. However, if you like sheer lipsticks this is a great one to go for, especially for the price.

Pros: Good pigmentation, Long Lasting, Nice to apply

Best Uses: Seasonal, Special Occasions, Everyday, Anywhere, Evening, Anytime

Describe Yourself: Creative, Casual, Colourful

This is a really nice deep pink lipstick. It applied nicely, and wasn't at all drying on my lips, it also lasted a decent amount of time. I would recommend filling in your lips with a lipliner first to ensure it lasts even longer. All in all a good inexpensive lipstick!

A Nice Easy To Apply Pigment Wand

Pros: Good pigmentation, Great Price, Easy application

Cons: Not a lot of product

Best Uses: Evening, Special Occasions

Describe Yourself: Casual, Colourful, Creative

I use this product to add some shimmer to my upper and/or lower lash line. It's easy to use, and a great way to apply a loose pigment which can sometimes be a bit messy otherwise. It has great colour payoff also. The only downside is the you dont get a whole lot of product, but for the price I can't really complain!
