Make Up For Ever Ink Liner

Last month, Make Up For Ever released two new liners to offer the purest, deepest, richest blacks. One, the Make Up For Ever Graphic Liner ($29 CAD) - an all-in-one ultra-fine pen and two, a matte liquid felt tip liner - the Make Up For Ever Ink Liner ($27 CAD). 

If you know anything about me, I love eyeliner. Liquid, gel, pencil. And EYELINER MONDAY is back...temporarily!The Make Up For Ever Ink Liner has been a nice addition to my daily winged liner routine. The MUFE Ink Liner claims to have a flexible, ergonomically designed, calligraphy pen tip. The felt tip is precise and feels ergonomic in the hand. Flexible is not a word that I'd use to describe the tip. It's quite stiff compared to other eyeliners I've tried. 

Surprisingly, I enjoy the stiff tip (that sounds kinda dirty...). Instead of wildly flopping around, the stiffer tip helps with precision and complements a slow and steady eyeliner hand. 

As for the product formulation, it's ultra-matte. I'm not a fan of glossy liners, so this is a brownie point in my books. The liner isn't entirely fast drying. It needs 20-30 seconds to set or else the horror of eyeliner on my hooded lid ensues. While MUFE doesn't claim that its Ink Liner is water-proof, it does say that it is transfer-proof. I would agree. Do a little crying and you'll get it on your face, but on my oily lids it doesn't transfer throughout the day. 

In a nutshell, the good is that it's precise, transfer-proof and matte black. The bad is that it's not water-proof and takes a little time to dry. I'm no stranger to eyeliner and I'd suggest that if you're a beginner that you go for the Graphic Liner instead due to the nature of the felt tip. It's easy to use but not the easiest. Overall, I like this liner. It's not my favourite eyeliner but it's my favourite fully matte black liner.
