I have to say, when I saw these little pots of gel eyeliner I was pretty skeptical.
How would I be able to apply this without completely ruining my makeup?
How would I get a really dramatic line? How long would it last?
Well, let me tell you...I was floored by this product.
It took a little time to get the hang of the brush...but after that, I was experimenting with all the various ways I could bring more drama to my lids. This product was perfect for both day and night, not only because of the staying power (although that is incredible!)...but because I could use more product or less product and simply layer to get the definition I wanted.
I normally wear liquid liner (which, let's face it..can get gloopy and tough to paint on)...but this is almost like a really creamy stick mashed up in a pot with a brush to apply with the lasting quality of a liquid.
In short...perfection.

The very light vanilla flavour was the perfect pick-me-up to my afternoon workday! But maybe next time I'll try the Seattle Strawberry cocktail they suggest as it would be terrific for a sunny Saturday afternoon when the strawberries are in season.
The best thing about Dry Soda is that their products are all natural, which let's face it..in today's world of frankenfoods and processing, natural is a terrific thing! Not to mention that it's only 60 calories!
I have to say though..it is served best ice cold.
Ingredients: Purified carbonated water, cane sugar, natural extracts and phosphoric acid.
Yes, that's it!!! :)
Taste: Like perrier with a light vanilla flavour. Neither cloying or too sweet..just light and simple. I didn't pair this up with a meal, but I did find it a treat in itself in the afternoon.
Design: I am a complete sucker for packaging and these bottles are simple, gorgeous and very classy. In fact, I have seen a few people use these bottles as simple vases for single stemmed flowers.
Price: The price at my local organic grocer was $1.99 Canadian..which really is like purchasing a 591 mL bottle of regular pop from any convenience store.
Overall Rating (Out of 5): 4.5/5 : I enjoy sparkling waters, and this was right up my alley..especially considering it reminded me of baking and even gave me an idea for a recipe this weekend!!
