Faces Long wear Metallic Plum Eye pencil Reviews
Hello beauties.
How are you all? It’s starting to get so hot here in my city, but this heat can’t stop us girls from dressing up, can it? I have been keeping so busy lately; it sure was a long weekend. Family functions are so much fun but tiring at the same time. Late night chats and calorie food. I sure need a strict check on my eating habits. Anyway coming to today’s review, I’m reviewing a beautiful eye pencil for you beauties who love playing different colors on their eyes. But everything has some or the other faults. Read on to know the drawbacks of this one.

Product description:

They are soft and gentle on sensitive eyes. Use them to give your eyes a dramatic look or to just brighten them up.

The packaging is a black colored pencil with color coding on the cap and bottom of the pencil. The cap shuts tightly which makes it convenient for traveling. The name of the pencil matches with that of the shade for it is a pretty plum colored eye liner with minute shimmer in it.

Cons of Faces Long wear Metallic Plum Eye pencil:

- Makes my eyes watery while application
- This shade isn’t easily available
My experience with Faces Long wear Metallic Plum Eye pencil:
Metallic plum is more of a night shade. It is smudge proof and waterproof but causes a lot of product wastage as it is the normal sharpen pencil. I have been so used to the retractable eye pencils now, that these normal pencils feel a burden to me as it is to be sharpened every time before applying.
Talking of the stay power, it’s pretty decent. It stays on for around 5 hours. This shade makes the eyes look sensual and dramatic. This shade would suit all skin shades.
Coming to its drawback, this particular eye pencil makes my eyes watery when I apply it. Also after a few hours post-application, I feel irritation on my eyes and it feels like it is hurting. I wear lenses and therefore cannot risk using such products that will irritate my eyes and so avoid wearing this eye pencil now-a-days.

Rating:
I will rate this pencil 5 out of 10 for it makes my eyes watery and also hurts a little.
Will I recommend this product?
For people who like to experiment with colored eye pencils, you can give it a try. But the sensitive eyes should better keep away.
