Review/Swatches L.A. Girl Cosmetics Glide Gel Liners

L.A. Girl Glide Gel Liners

The L.A. Girl Cosmetics Glide Gel Liners creamy, super long-lasting (I mean waterproof and smudgeproof once it is set) and it literally just "glides" on with no tugging. Think of the gel liner that you use in the little pot with the slanted eye liner brush but in pencil form with no brush needed.   If you have been looking for a liner to place in the waterline this is for you! Seriously, I have never been so passionate about a product.  There are very similar to the Urban Decay 24/7 Liners, IMO. Take a look at the video below for instant gratification, you will be impressed, I know it! (UPDATE: For some reason it won't let me upload the video here I took from my Iphone, head over to my instagram to view the video if you are interested to see how true  these liners stay put)

Now another great thing about these bad boy liners is the price point.  $5 for each one, you can find them here at L.A Girl Cosmetics.com.  I love finding fabulous makeup products that don't break the bank, and these liners fit right in this category.

Below are the swatches that I have, and will be purchasing the other liners to complete the collection.  I will also be doing some MOTDS with these liners so keep an eye out. Which colour do you like? My favorites are Champagne (pearly not too white liner for brightening), Very Black (true intense black), Gypsy Teal (blueish-deep aqua teal), and Royal Blue (purple blue - great for brown eyed girls).  Enjoy the swatches and I would love to know which colour is your fav!

elf cream liner vs. mac fluidline

I have started this elf revolution with my girlfriends, seriously.  It first started when e.l.f. had their birthday sale, then finding it at Target, and now collecting everything like crazy.  As a professional makeup artist I love this brand for myself and for my clients. One of my favorite products  are the Studio Cream Eye Liners because of the color variety and the longevity of the product.  The cream liners are comparable to the MAC fluidline eye liners.  In my opinion the fluidline is a little bit thicker in consistency than the cream liners but overall the quality of both products are the same.  Both proclaim they are smudge-proof and long wearing which I totally agree. I even use these liners for lining the top (so easy to give a little wing) and bottom (yes it does stay one).   I wanted to see how many colors the fluidline comes in, it seems they have discontinued a few than when I use to work for the company.  Now they only carry 7 and elf carries 11.

If you are wondering how the colors compare to each other take a peek at the picture.   Overall both liners are great.  Have fun creating the perfect line!

 ps. If you want to check out out the cream liners in action watch some of my videos, it's practically the only eyeliners I use. :D
