Product Review! "Walk the Line" Eyeliner by Hard Candy

Hallo neue Preußen!

It is product review time! Today I will be doing a review for a liquid eye liner. The particular eye liner being “Walk the Line” by Hard Candy. This is the stuff that I talked about in my previous post. Well, let us get to the review shall we?

First things first, putting liquid eye liner on is a holy terror of a job! I spent a great number of hours practicing with a cheap dollar brand. That being said, I discovered that if I was sitting in a chair with arm rests or had something to rest my elbow on I could get it on with few mistakes since my arm/hand was stablelized. After putting this technique into use and having practiced getting it right, I felt comfortable moving up form dollar junk to the good quality stuff. I tried several, but in the end I settled on my favorite animal loving brand that also makes my favorite pencil liner, Hard Candy.

So, “Walk the Line” liquid eyeliner. What is so great about it anyways? One thing that I love about Hard Candy is that none of their products are tested on animals! They also have bright and fun colours in addition to the basics. However, the thing that sold me on this product was that it did not run or even smudge during my dancing. For those of you who do not know, I do tap, jazz, contemporary, ballroom, and jingle dress in terms of dance. If this stuff can last through jingle dress dancing in 105F heat, it is amazing! See!

 

When it says it is long lasting, it means it. Also, the colour is pretty amazing. It stays true to the colour in the bottle when applied. I just cannot say enough good things about this product. The applicator makes getting good lines really easy and does not have bristles to get in your eye or out of shape.
Alright, so what are the bad things about this product? Well the first thing that pops into my mind is that it is really hard to get off. I mean really hard. I have problems getting it off with waterproof make-up remover. Some evenings, I do NOT recommend this at all, I wash my face and all that jazz only to have it still on so I leave it. I pay for it the later so, like I said, do not do it. The other bad thing is that the little applicator tip is, as mentioned above, one piece and is not a brush. That means that if it breaks you are pretty much screwed and have to go buy a new bottle of it or spend a long time trying to get the little thing that helps remove the extra liner from the applicator off of it so you can stick a different brush in it.
Other than that, it is wonderful. Would I recommend this? Yes! If you are looking for a long lastly, easy to apply liquid eye liner, this is the product for you! As long as you leave yourself time to scrub the stuff off your face in the evening, you are as good as gold. Gold is also one of the colours you can get. Just you all know. The good thing about this product is that you can get it at Walmart! Also, if you are lucky, sometimes you can find it on Amazon. 
I hope you all have found this review helpful! If you would like a review on any product you would like to try feel free to drop me a note!
Stay beautiful and sweet everyone!
