"Clinique Cream Eyeliner- True Black 02" she reviewed

Eyeliner is a must for me, I wear it every single day. I have quite sensitive eyes and for a long time I was using high street branded eyeliners which really irritated my eyes and made me look like I was crying. I would get to college with black all down my face but I just wasn't prepared to fork out for something more expensive. But about a week and a half ago I decided to bite the bullet and buy the Clinique cream eyeliner, may someone please explain to me why I didn't do this before?


Firstly, the packaging is very nice, I love the colours on the box and I like how simple the pot is because it's just going to get dirty with it being amongst make up so this is easy wipe. 

 Included in the box is a small brush which is quite stiff so it's perfect for doing a nice straight line as it doesn't just go out of control.


You might think I've used quite a lot of the product for saying I've only had it for almost two weeks but that's just because I didn't realise that the product really was like a cream(not really like the gel liners) and the first time I used it I just sort of shoved the brush in with too much force. You only get 5 ml of product but you really can use it sparingly as a little goes a long way.


I literally got the smallest amount on my brush and was able to create a strong thick line without applying more product. The only problem with the brush is that the 3rd line is the thinnest you can go but you can use your own brush.

My eyes water so much on the way to college and the picture above is my make up after wearing it for about 13/14 hours. The eyeliner hasn't smudged at all! I'm so happy with this product and I couldn't recommend it enough. It also doesn't irritate my eyes at all and it really is worth spending the money in my opinion. I shall definitely be repurchasing this when mine runs out! I believe you can also wear this on your water line and I'm sure it would be great as it's practically water proof. The only problem I have with it is that it's a bit tricky to take off, but nothing a good cleanser can't solve! 

Any eyeliners you'd recommend?
