HiP Color Truth Cream Eyeliner

Wow! I give HiP Color Truth Cream Eyeliner TWO THUMBS UP! I have used several other brands of liner and this one is one of the best.

L’Oreal makes this awesome cream eyeliner for their HiP line of cosmetics. I purchased 905 Black and plan on getting other colors also.

Note: On the L’Oreal website it is now called Studio Secrets Color Truth Cream Eyeliner. If it doesn’t say “Studio Secrets” on the packaging in the store, it is the same thing.

This eyeliner is just awesome, it is so creamy and smooth. It is in a glass pot and it even comes with the perfect little applicator brush. This eyeliner would work well for ANYONE and it is very easy to apply. You get the nice dark, crisp look of liquid eyeliner, but much easier to apply. VERY little product goes a long way! I will probably have this pot for ages (0.159 oz. – 4.5 g). You can easily wing this out for a nice dramatic look, and while still wet, can smudge it for a nice smoky look.

This comes in: Black, brown, teal, midnight blue, and eggplant.

The good thing about this product also is that it can be purchased at many stores! The average retail price runs about $10 - $12 depending on where you purchase it. A little pricey, but well worth it, and will last forever! (Just be sure you keep the lid closed well so it doesn’t dry out!)

Eye Shadow Primer

My eye shadow primer of choice overall is the Too Faced Shadow Insurance – Anti-Crease Eye Shadow Primer.

There are some older posts with me raving about the Urban Decay Primer Potion and do not get me wrong, it is a wonderful product as far as the actual formula goes. It is the packaging that ruins it. While it is cute, you sacrifice a LOT of product in that bottle. The wand misses all the bends of the bottle and many people have said they de-pot it to get it all out! (cut open the bottle). If I am going to pay $17 for a tube of something I expect to get every little bit of product out of it.

That is where the Too Faced Shadow Insurance – Anti-Crease Eye Shadow Primer. comes in to play. After much frustration with the other packaging, I tried this product. Formula wise, I like them about equally, maybe like the Too Faced Shadow Insurance – Anti-Crease Eye Shadow Primer. a little more because it isn’t as “goopy” as the Urban Decay.

The Too Faced Shadow Insurance – Anti-Crease Eye Shadow Primer. costs $1 less than Urban Decay’s brand, and gives you 0.01 Fl. Oz. more product. Urban Decay recently changed the want to bend some, but it also raised the cost by $1. Just not worth it for me.

You will be able to get every little bit of product out of this tube and it will last you 3x longer than the regular sized tube of Urban Decay’s primer. VERY, very little bit goes a long way. It dries clear, brings out the actual shades of eyeshadows and it locks that shadow down! I will never wear eyeshadow without a primer anymore.
