How to fix your dried gel eyeliner?


Hello everyone!! Eyeliner is something that I'm addicted to. Be it a regular black or any bright colour, eyeliner is a must for me on a daily basis. I use pencils, gels and liquids but my most favourite form is gel. Gel eyeliner is a good option for girls with oily lids and it stays smudge proof all throughout the day.

The first gel eyeliner I bought was from Maybelline (Lasting Drama Gel Liner). Since then I'm so hooked to this product and it lasts a long time and is also has jet black pigmentation. But over a period of time, it started getting dry and I wasn't able to pick enough product with my brush. Then my hunt began to search for the best method to revive my gel liner.

I came across a number of methods and tried it all. But to my dismay, they were all temporary solutions to fix the dried gel liner. And one fine day, I found this particular method to get rid of the dryness of my liner.


So the solution is:

Put a single drop of oil (I used almond oil; castor oil is a better option though) or a little petroleum jelly into your liner and using a spatula evenly mix it. And voila, my gel liner was as good as new. Try this trick and you'll never regret...

Faces Magneteyes Dramatic Volumizing Mascara - Review, Swatches

Hey everyone! I am writing down after ages. So I am starting anew with reviewing a mascara. Thank you so much if you're a returning reader. Cheers! Well, I believe, mascara is one independent component of makeup which pretty much turns around the whole look. These short shelf-lived warriors are must-haves and definitely be replaced every six months. And for that very reason, I rely on affordable ones. With so many brands now being available at our fingertips, across multiple channels, buyers are challenged to pick the best ones for themselves. Maybelline and Essence are known for their excellent collections of mascaras and influencers make us buy them. Today I'm sharing a lesser-known mascara from Faces Canada. It is from the range of Magneteyes. While I'm a big-time fan of the Faces Magneteyes Kajal , I had to try the Faces Magneteyes Mascara as well. Packaging: It is red a tube and has no non-sense packaging. The wand is pretty fat and has synthetic bristles, ...

Suncros Aquagel SPF 26 Review

Hello everyone. Today I'm going to review a sunscreen which is the Suncros Aquagel Sunscreen with spf 26. Of late I am only using products that are paraben free. As most of you know, paraben is a class of compounds that are used in cosmetics as a preservative. Although parabens help to keep our makeup and skin care products bacteria free, however it is said cause hormonal disturbance in our body. Hence, I prefer to be on the safer  side. I have used sunscreens from Lakme, Lotus, Khadi, Neutrogena and they all contain paraben. The Khadi sunscreen claims to be paraben free but I don't like its texture. On much research and consultation with a dermatologist I came across Suncros sunscreen. Suncros Aquagel Spf 26 Now, Suncros has many variants of sunscreens. You can find both cream and gel formulae sunscreens. Although this one has the term "gel"  in it, but the texture is actually that of a cream.  Packaging:   The sunscreen comes in a cubical ...
