Sharpie, the new eyeliner??!

She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
She's Cheer Captain and I'm on the bleechers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time...

While Taylor Swift's infamous "You Belong to Me" song was on the radio, I was looking at my Twitter and...
Say whaaaaaaaaat??

Can you even imagine trying to REMOVE Sharpie marks from your eyes? It's so hard to remove when it gets on my hands!

HAS ANYONE TRIED THIS? I'm interested. Aren't there harmful chemicals in Sharpies that shouldn't go near your eyes? Eeps!

Taylor Swift, I hope your eyes are OK...

BUXOM Lashliner in...

. . . BLUE VELVET !

What it says on the packaging...
Lash-Enhancing & Conditioning Treatment
Nourishes & Strengthens from the roots for longer, fuller foxy lashes
You can get THAT BUXOM LOOK
Tips & Tricks inside
Paraben-Free formula
2g/0.07 oz


Are you sick of black or brown eyeliner?
I kinda am so I wanted to venture off into the realm of color. I do own a lot of colored eyeliner (24/7 pencils from Urban Decay) but I have never been able to pull off blue eyeliner on my top lash line because I think it makes me look sleepy.

However, I do like this for the following:
1. Doesn't make me look sleepy (woo-hoo!)
2. Good blue shade to transition from black if you're scared of color because it's dark AND definitely work-safe
3. PARABEN-FREE!! Hollaaa
4. Mineral-rich -- gel formula that is made with natural ingredients, such as vitamins A, C and E, Honeysuckle, Jojoba Oil, Soy Protein, Tourmaline (what dat?) and Biotin (vitamin B).
5. Decently priced although MAC Fluidlines come out to be cheaper since they're 3g and Buxom Lashliners are 2g

I would definitely pick up a BUXOM Lashliner if you're looking for a gel eyeliner in a color other than black or brown. I first got this in "Leatherette" (aka black) and I loved it so much that I had to pick up their newest color in "Blue Velvet."


SFMACandcheese's suggestion
: If you're nervous about wearing blue eyeliner, mix this with a little bit of black gel liner so you get a hint of blue but nothing overbearing.

Purchased at Sephora for $15

FTC: I purchased this with my own money and am not being paid for my review.
