For today's review, let's look at a product by Stila that comes with not just one or two but three of the brand's top-selling smudge pots.
The kit, Stila Eyes & Shine Smudge Pot Trio Gel Eyeliner ($32), contains black, bronze, and gray shades — all must-haves for the ultimate smoky eye. Bella reviewer Scully was a fan, giving the set four out of five stars. And now, take it away, Scully:
"For years I've stayed away from gel/cream eyeliners because my hand is not very steady — boy was I missing out! For me, this was the best purchase I have made lately. You get three colors that are universally flattering and the product stays put. I can apply at 5 a.m. and by 9 p.m. this stuff looks freshly applied and going strong. The texture is creamy and glides on effortlessly. I took one star away only because it is very hard to remove if you make a mistake — but on the flip side — that's why it's so long-lasting. I would recommend this to anyone."
I don't normally prefer the precise,
lined look anyway (except for cat eyes). But I have to disagree with the review; after a few hours it can look smudged and gross. But it's probably just me; my lids tend to get oily.
I LOVE gel eyeliners, but I use MAC Fluidline. It's so much easier to make a smooth line than it is with a pencil and they stay so much longer!
