Wet'n Wild Break up proof eyeliner - Black Brown review


Wet'n Wild has always resonated with me as a "beginner's make up product". I was first introduced to it when I was still in grade 7, but have gone to other higher ended brands ever since. Their products are vegan and cruelty-free and very affordable. (This eyeliner was less than $3.00). 

btw, I have a referral code (good for new and existing customers, you get 5% off your purchase using this code at iHerb: https://www.iherb.com/?rcode=CVX9348)


This is a retractable thick eyeliner.
It claims to last 16 hours, cry-proof, humidity-proof and smudge-proof.
They say it is ophthalmologist tested and safe for contact lens wearers. 


This is a detailed description from their website: 
Our waterproof, silky formula is lightweight, comfortable, and glides onto the lids without tugging or pulling the delicate eye area. The satin gel formula delivers up to 16 hours of long-lasting, pigment-rich color in every effortlessly, smooth application. Smudge-proof, cry-proof and humidity-proof.

ingredients:

Synthetic Wax, Isododecane, Trimethylsiloxysilicate, Phenylpropyldimethylsiloxysilicate, Microcrystalline Wax/Cire Microcristalline, Isobutylmethacrylate/Bis-Hydroxypropyl Dimethicone Acrylate Copolymer, Polyisoprene, Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer, Dimethicone, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, VP/Hexadecene Copolymer, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Propylene Carbonate, [+/- (MAY CONTAIN/PEUT CONTENIR): Iron Oxides/CI 77491, 77492, 77499, Black 2/CI 77266, Ultramarines/CI 77007, Ferric Ferrocyanide/CI 77510, Titanium Dioxide/CI 77891]. [1910-2]

outcome


impressions:

  • that is a lot of ingredients for an eyeliner 
  • it isn't easy to use, hard to get a desirable line
  • quite waxy and left residue
  • the "line" isn't consistent and can be very patchy
  • not smudge-proof, all you need is a tissue and it can be removed
  • very budget-friendly (only $3.00)
  • colour is nice, not 100% natural-looking but nothing "bold"
  • good for quick fixer-uppers
  • according to the website, it is safe for contact lenses wearers

Verdict:

While it is an affordable eyeliner, I didn't really like it as much as I thought I would. It was extremely hard to control the consistency of the product, and it is very waxy (not silky, as they claim). It left a lot of additional "residue" which makes it easy to make mistakes. If you are only looking for something that will make do for emergency situations then this is a great choice since it is affordable, but if you are trying to get a certain look, then this might not be a good product for you. 

score: 6.8/10
