They slide on so smoothly, have GREAT pigmentation and come in great colours. Black, brown, purple and blue.. the perfect liner shades.
The lasting properties are incredible, literally 24 hours (literally because I have not tested it, but I'm sure it can). Once, I swatched the colours on my hand before school. Throughout a normal day I wash, touch and sit on my hands (it's cold) and when I got home, the swatches have not BUDGED! After a long school day my lids get a little oily and it's great to see that my liner still looks great and no raccoon eyes!
After the Gel Liners dry, they're basically impervious to water, sweat and tears. You can rub it as hard as you can but it will not move on your skin.
I'm not sure how waterproof it is, I haven't tested that yet, but I ran my swatches through water and rubbed and they stayed intact.
Sadly, the Gel Liners don't deliver on the 'intense drama' that the website states. I'm not sure why the product is called Lasting Drama because Gel Liners appear quite subtle compared to M.A.C. and Bobbi Brown liners. Those looking for a BOLDBOLD look may not be completely satisfied with this, as they might find it too faint for their liking. Gel Liners can be built up, however.
I'm pleased with this product and love that the colour is not so loud because I can use it for an everyday look.
Fantastic product from the new Maybelline Eyestudio line. Colour payoff is amazing and staying power is incredible. The colour is more subtle than bold, and is suitable for an everyday look. I would recommend and definitely purchase again.

I hate this product! all this time I 'loved' it because it was from MAC and supposed to be amazing quality. I've been wearing it for months and had terrible smudges all the time! today I came home with ridiculous coon eyes for the last time. I'd rather use drugstore mascara than this again.
BTW my lids don't get really oily and I was wearing a primer as well. AND i only coated the lashes midway so it wouldn't transfer that much!
very disappointed.

This thing was disgusting! My first Nivea product and it was a horrible experience. I fell in love with the smell as soon as I opened it and I brought it with me to school. All day long I was sniffing the lipbalm and applying it without even bothering to look in a mirror! Finally my frd asked me why I had foundation on my lips and my other frd said it looked like I was wearing nude coloured lipstick! I was so mortified! This thing went straight under my bed. -
Old Navy Flip Flops

There was a $1 flip flop sale during july 10. I walked in intending to buy a couple. I walked out with 8 pairs and a couple swim wear pieces for good measure. I just fell in love with the adorable and versatile colours. Some had cute little flower patterns as well.
I wore my black pair out for 5 hours. It was great but the rubber part would hurt a little if I walked too hard. Still, the flip flops were 200% worth it. For a dollar, these were a complete steal.

Freaking amazing sponge that can remove the most stubborn dirt from the oddest surfaces... such as a shoe. However, I don't like using it on walls. I think there's some sort of bleach in the sponge because the colour of my walls get transferred onto the sponge and actually wears a little thinner. -
Maybelline New York Colossal Volum' Express Mascara
This worked for me initially; gave me nice volume, a tint to my lashes and I didnt mind the sickening rose scent at all. But then it started smudging on me. Huge, ugly racoon smudges, Every day without fail. I tried using UDPP and a mascara primer... +
This worked for me initially; gave me nice volume, a tint to my lashes and I didnt mind the sickening rose scent at all. But then it started smudging on me. Huge, ugly racoon smudges, Every day without fail. I tried using UDPP and a mascara primer to no avail. It's really too bad,I rather liked this product. -
