Got time for a 2-minute review?
Before you answer that, it’s Chanel. 🙂
WHAT IT IS: Chanel Stylo Yeux Waterproof Long-Lasting Eyeliner in Purple Berry, a limited-edition twist-up purple pencil liner from the Les Delices De Chanel collection.
WHAT IT DOES:
- The texture’s on the hard side, but it’s actually relatively smooth for a hard pencil…if that makes any sense, and it doesn’t skip, which is great.
- The pencil itself is very thin, which makes it easy to apply right at the roots of my lashes and water line.
- This particular purple color doesn’t have heavy red undertones, which I like, because sometimes the reddish tones in purple liners give me zombie eyes.
- The finish has a subtle, elegant sheen to it that reminds me a little of Becca’s Cabrera.
- This thing’s like Michael Phelps in the water! It’s extremely waterproof, especially along lash lines. I wore it to the pool yesterday, and it didn’t flinch after 10 cannonballs. 🙂
- For a deep purple color that lasts all day long, I apply 2-3 layers along my lash lines.
- I know that for a lot of women the Chanel Stylos perform well along their water lines, but I haven’t been so lucky. For me they’re just okay. Along my water lines, I have to apply 4-5 layers to really see the color, and then it lasts about 5 hours, tops.
- It’s isn’t really a smudgy kind of liner. It’s actually pretty tough to blend the edges.
