Coastal Scents Gel Eyeliner v. Wet'n'Wild Cream Eyeliner

Shown: Coastal Scents Gel Liner in True Black and Wet'n'Wild Mega Eyes Cream Eyeliner in Black.


Both are very dense, black liners, but the reason I love the Wet'n'Wild cream eyeliner is: long wearability. By the end of the day, the Coastal Scents gel eyeliner has rubbed off onto other parts of my eye, creating a rainbow below my brow bone (even when set with shadow). The formulation of the gel liner is too emollient to wear for a long day, whereas the cream liner dries and barely budges:
Only downside? You MUST use a waterproof eye makeup to remove the Wet'n'Wild cream liner. It will not come off otherwise! I also wish there were more colors available :(

Also! I used the cream liner in my waterline and it is THE BEST waterline liner I have used thus far. It covers all of my pink skin with opaque blackness once it dries and lasts a really long time. The packaging does not specify whether or not it is safe for the waterline, so try this at your own risk. Some would argue that NO eye makeup is safe for the waterline, however!

  2. On my eyes I am wearing a mixture of the ELF Warm Bronzer on my lid with the shadows from the NYX Caribbean "St. Kitt" and "St. John" palettes. I used the light colors on the inner third of my eye and the brown/ smokey colors in the crease and lower lash line. Thanks for the compliment!

    are we supposed to add water to the gel/cream eyeliners when we first buy them?

  4. xxmizfatzzzxx: You don't add water; unfortunately this is the characteristic of the liner. You have to use a separate eye makeup remover to get it off (don't rely on normal face cleanser!) I use Neutrogena Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover with a Q-Tip or Tissue. This one is great because it doubles as a quick brush cleanser that is superior to MAC's brush cleanser, in my opinion. Just dab a bit on a tissue, and work it into the brush bristles to clean the liner residue off of the brush. Hope that helps ;)
