It’s that time of year where I start stocking up on my essentials. With so many great sales going on this is the best time to do just that. It just so happens that I end up running very low on product toward the end of the year so it works out beautifully.
When it comes to essentials I usually stick to what I know and love. This year I decided to try something a little different. I haven’t tried anything from Fenty Beauty yet. I was super excited when this brand first launched, but nothing really appealed to me. My local Sephora has a whole display so I was able to swatch everything. But I found everything to be far too shimmery and it just wasn’t my thing.
This year I decided to try something more my style. The Fenty Beauty Flyliner Longwear Liquid Eyeliner is what I had my eye on. It comes in the shade Cuz I’m Black which is described as a true satin black. The packaging is really beautiful. The tip is fine enough for precision lining. I was a little nervous immediately after swatching it on my hand because I noticed the bleeding. But I decided to try it on my lids before deciding that it wasn’t for me.
Application was very easy. I didn’t have to go over and over to achieve that perfect black wing. The fine tip really did help with precision too. There was no tugging or skipping. It glided on effortlessly. Everything was perfect up until that point. After about 2 hours I noticed it moved from the inner corner of my eye to my inner crease. As time went on it all just started to pool into my crease. I’ve tried so many liquid eyeliners in my time and I’ve never experienced anything like it before. My eyeliner usually stays put. It’s easily the one thing I never have to worry about. I hardly ever deal with creasing when it comes to my eyeshadow. My lids just aren’t that oily I guess. But even my eyeshadow would crease before my eyeliner would. It was very strange to see.
The Fenty Beauty Flyliner Longwear Liquid Eyeliner is a huge miss for me. Just two hours in and it was a mess. I would have been so upset if I had gone somewhere and was unable to fix it. Because it’s not like I walk around with a bag full of makeup and brushes to fix problems like this. And I can’t just pull out a makeup removing wipe from my bag because this eyeliner won’t come off with a wipe. You need an oil based remover. Otherwise it smudges everywhere.
I hear so many great things about the brand, but so far everything I have tried has left me feeling underwhelmed. I also purchased a few of the Stunna Lip Paints which I’m still testing. So far I’m loving them. So at least I got a few keepers. I’ll be reviewing them soon.
Have you tried anything from Fenty Beauty? What products do you love?

The packaging really is nice! That’s about all I can say lol.
That’s a real shame – I actually really like it and I have watery eyes and oily lids! xx

Yeah I definitely wasn’t a fan. :(
The applicator looks nice and sharp, but as soon as I saw these swatches I thought it would be a mess… the bleeding is intense! You know what, to be honest with you, I think there are a lot of duds in the Fenty line and not too many hits. It’s Rihanna so the launch got everyone excited, especially with the fantastic shade range of their foundation. But in terms of quality, I’m not sure it’s worth the hype. I only have their Gloss Bomb and yeah, it’s a good gloss. I wanted to buy their holiday crayon sets for the eyes and lips but reviews are terrible. Nothing else is appealing to me.

Many seem to be overlooking those swatches, but I mean it’s clear how much it bleeds. I actually agree with you. I’ve tried many of the products and they’ve all let me down. I do love the lip paints, but the shades aren’t that unique so I don’t see them as a must have. People seem to go crazy over the eye and face products, but they were far too glittery for me. It’s just not my thing.
oh that is bad…mess in 2 hrs, very bad.. i wish it was as good as it looks :D … i was super excited about this but now I am definitely skipping it..
