Product Review: Tarte EmpasEYES Waterproof Clay Shadow/Liner

Up until I started school I shunned and hid away from gel liner, I thought it would be so difficult to learn how to manage it. But really, for me it is a lot easier than using a regular eye pencil. One day in class a friend of mine let me try it out, recommended it and HOLY MOLEY!! This stuff is a god send, I use this everyday and hardly any of it has been used out of the pot! It comes in a glass pot with a plastic cap with a cute little flower on it and TARTE in a cute font. The colour that I am using at the moment is the black one, but now that I know what its like this is my go-to eye liner. I plan on getting it in every shade available.


 The colour pay off is amazing, the pigments used in this formulation was a real eye opener. Now I know why some people are willing to spend the big bucks on a product such as these. Its made out of Amazonian Clay which in my opinion seems to be a trend in products this year but wow, there is a big difference in this formulation then the ones I have noticed in others. The colour does not get washed out whatsoever. It lasts me all day and late into the evening because of my school hours. The only time it has ever creased is when I forgot to set my makeup and with the fact that I have very oily lids. Otherwise its works like a charm. 


A good thing about Sephora is that they post a need to know about the product and the following is the list of ingredients that they provided of ingredients that ARE NOT in this particular product. 


- Parabens

- Sulfates

- Synthetic Fragrances

- Synthetic Dyes

- Petrochemicals

- Phthalates

- GMOs

- Triclosan 




So in my opinion this product gets a 12 out of 10. Which is really rare in my book. Since I've started school I have become much more particular about the products that I use on myself and would recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a new eyeliner. I'll never use a pencil again if it can be avoided.


But yeah, that is my review on the Tarte EmpasEYES Waterproof Clay Shadow/Liner, if you have the chance to pick it up, DO IT!!
