Holy cow, didn't you used to post on the MAC_Cosmetics livejournal years ago??? I remember you! How random to find you on youtube now. I hope that your health is well now. :)
I know Pixi (at Target) sells a skintone liner, I haven't tried it but I think pixiwoo used it in one of her videos (it was Sam) I hope that helps somewhat!
I have stila's topaz and MUFE's champagne liner. The MUFE one was such a dissapointment. Its not pigmented at all on my waterline which was unexpected considering how expensive it was, so I use it as a base. The stila one I loove I got it for 8 bucks at sephora not too long ago. It's very pigmented and stays on the waterline (for me.) The color is a bit more peachy though so it doesn't work for every look (again, on me.)
I LOVE this idea of flesh colored liner! Do you happen to know where your friend found illamasqua in Paris? I'll be there next month and i'd love to pick some up as well.
If anyway wanted to know what a flesh toned eyeliner would be used for keep reading.
Instead of using white eyeliner on the waterline (the moist part of skin above your lower lash line) you can use a flesh toned which looks more natural. It does the same exact thing as a white liner would, meaning it will open up the eyes and make you look more awake.
sometimes your waterline gets red say from waking up or allergies or irritation w/e the thing may be. using a fleshtone kind of corrects it and gives you a brighter look. as she has said maybe in a video or comment it kind of acts like a conealer or adds a little glamour :)
I have an llamasqua liner in Cane, which is a fair yellow based nude shade. I got it to line my waterline, unfortunately, it dilutes as if it were watercolor when I put it there. The area around my lips is a bit dry and I felt the Illamasqua liner sometimes accentuated that, so be aware.
BTW, for anyone wondering, Illamasqua (pronounced Ill-a-Mask-a) is actually a British line, so other than the brand name, you don't have to worry about funky pronunciations!
Although it is a pale green color they claim that it was designed to cancel out the redness/pink on the waterline for the apperance of bigger brighter eyes.
Weather it does or not, I'm not sure because I haven't tried it yet
a beige kind of eye pencil that i use, that has a sheen like you were describing is called chill the champagne its by maybelline its a coll effect cooling shadow/liner and i really like it, maybe it's similar to your product!
The only reason most lip products are unsafe to use on the eye area is because of carmine - a red dye that many people have eye sensitivities to. So if the pencil doesn't have carmine in it, I would assume it's okay to use.
I've been looking for a flesh toned eyeliner for a while... and then a couple of weeks ago i tryed one from Gosh :) On the pencil it say: " Sparkling pearl crystal ´eyes eye pencil" and i really like it :)
Great review. Illamasqua pencils are amazing!!! They are multipurpose and very long wearing, as you said. As far as I am aware they are not waterproof but I still love them. Also, love your makeup in this video. Looking forward to the tutorial. xx
Since you are not adverse to putting non eyeliner products on your waterline,
try checking out some of the Anastasia brow highlighters. They come in both matte and shimmery shades and seem to come in very neutral peachy pinky tones that might work for you.
I own a khol pencil from MaxFactor that is flesh toned- although now seeing a swatch of Tendered, it might not be close enough (it may be less shiny and pinkier )... Anyways, it may be worth to check out next time your at your local drugstore. :)
BEST COMMENT EVER. I love that you realized that it's nearly and identical look (in regards to technique). You'd be surprised how many people don't understand this concept. BRAVO to you!! :D
This technique is amazing! I love the 3D look that it gives your eyes, and I use it all the time! Just as I was getting bored with everything, I found these tutorials and it's great because you can do them with any color combination. Thanks for posting these! :)
Yea there's a lot of powder products that do - Naked Lunch, Flushed (prestige), but a lot of people have sensitivities to wearing powder on the waterline - plus a pencil is just so much more convieniant.
Thank you! I was just looking at some of those products. Too bad sephora doesn't carry the entire Illamasqua line! I hope they will soon because I'm never going back to France haha.
OMG!!! meee toooooo. I work in a contact centre and say "let's see" all the time now while I'm checking something for my customers. LOL! Risa, you say it soooo much but we love it. It's just another part of your ever so cute personality. xx
Thanks for taking the time to swatch these at Sephora. I don't like to use a while liner on the waterline because it doesn't look right to me so I have been curious about getting something like a Tendered that would work for me.
you always have a problem with your lighting being to harsh, and you have amazing lighting, but try putting a coffee filter or tissue paper over the light to scatter the rays it so it stays just as bright, but doesn't get as harsh. the tissue paper should soften it enough to not wash colors out as much. That's what we have to do at my school's announcement tv channel (-.- stupid low budget wont get us anything but desk lamps). I dont know if it will help you or not, but just thought it might.
I use that technique with photography, but never considered it for video because it's really just a simple bulb, so there's no way to do that without burning it...for now at least! I am going to look into different lighting. Thanks! :)
hehe ^_^' thanks for the compliment (i guess) just a little trick that I've picked up along the way. she works so hard trying to show us what we want, so if there's anything that might help her why not?
Alo, illamasqua is an english company.. sorry!

Mac is coming out with a new Flesh Toned eyeliner!
It's called a chromographic eye pencil, it's already PRO, but should be released April 22 for a limited amount of time at counters.
It comes in two shades, I believe, one for darker like NW20-NC30 and one for NC15-NW20.
I can't wait to hear more about them!
