Review: Revlon Colorstay Eyeliner

[invincible221]

this stuff stays PUT! & doesn't smudge like the maybelline cream liner

[JHerrera821]

i just bought this eyeliner today and it wasn't what i expected!

[MissKatatny]

@JHerrera821 in a good or bad way?

[Vika0885]

I really love this product!! It's so smooth so you can apply it easily on your waterline, it doesn't run out! I've tried other brands like L'oreal infaillible and it feels sticky! I could feel my eyelids literally stick! Revlon does not stick in this way! So I just have to say awesome product!

[Makeupgeek141]

oh nvm thx (: can i use like primer before applying?

[Makeupgeek141]

will it smudge an give me racoon eyes?

[sadbunny123]

ahhh i had teal for the colorstay for a while and i really liked it. it lasts quite a while (the whole school day, and then some).

and today i got black for colorstay and I'm quite excited to try it out. THEN i found that theres a SHARPENER at the end and i was like =O!!

lol a bit clueless, but i thought it was awesome hahaha

[vSmithy33]

when i put the revlon colorstay automatic pencil on, it does NOT glide ): its soo hard to put on and when it goes on, it like leaves little spaced between the color. like little bare spaces. and when i try and go back to fix this, i just end up messing up and getting eyeliner everywhere ): ugh is this just the way my skin is or is it the eyeliner? it makes me so mad ):

[Honey2600]

funky ass colors. ahahahah! :D

[justcallmegrayson]

how long does it last throughout the day? does it smudge?

[icyabstract]

@justcallmegrayson I find that it lasts pretty well. It will smudge, it's inevitable and I haven't found a pencil liner that doesnt but smudging is minimal and it stays on for a good amount of time before smearing a little and I really mean just a little! (:

[justcallmegrayson]

@icyabstract ahh thats good! haha thank you soo much!

[xxxPrayxForxPlaguesx]

are they safe to put on the top inner lash line? will it go onto the bottom lash when you blink?

[icyabstract]

@xxxPrayxForxPlaguesx I can't be certain for these because Revlon never advertised it that way but I do it and it's been okay for me so far. It doesn't transfer as easily to the lower lash line as some other pencils do.

[xxxPrayxForxPlaguesx]

@icyabstract mm true. well thank you very much for the reply! i appreciate it:)

[justinefabulous123]

Whats the darkest one??

[icyabstract]

@justinefabulous123 Black. I'm not sure if it's called Blackest Black or something but yeap Black (:

[icyabstract]

@shiroxchoco Hmm, well it isn't mentioned in Revlon adverts/sites but I do use it on my waterline and so far it hasn't caused any irritation though if your eyes are more sensitive you might not want to try this - just in case.

[MadamPhanny]

Do you live in front of a beach? it really sounds like it in the background xD

[icyabstract]

@MadamPhanny I do stay close to the coast hence some random ship sounds in the background on some of my videos.

[mootsiee]

try using BABY OIL it does wonders

[icyabstract]

@mootsiee Yes it does but Baby oil is not recommended for usage around the eye area because the Mineral oil in Baby oil can be a little harsh for the skin around our eyes.

[nuriumzzzzzzzz]

All retractable eyeliners I've ever bought had only about an inch and a half of the actual product when I retracted it the full way through. Is that the same with this eyeliner?

[icyabstract]

@nuriumzzzzzzzz Hmm I would say it's probably about there. I can't really recall as I've had them for awhile but one stick does last a good amount of time.

[fallingout1233]

love the shirt :P

[puppyclare]

will it smudqe with sweat ?

[icyabstract]

@puppyclare It depends. It stays on for some and for others it might smudge. For me it stays on pretty good even through a hot day.

[SuperSunny365]

Thanks for this review my eyeliner smudges reeeeaaallly badly through the day. I cry when I laugh so I need to try waterproof eyeliner!

[ShichimiXP]

it....doesnt come off when i use it D: is that a good thing?

[icyabstract]

@ShichimiXP It's a good thing when it stays on the entire day but isn't too difficult to remove with makeup remover at the end of the day.

[JaasmineeDuhh]

@ShichimiXP Mine Doesnt Come Off Either! But It Will Fade . . :D

[ShichimiXP]

@JaasmineeDuhh yea mine doesnt come off AT ALL like i have to scrub rlly hard T_T even if i use makeup remover

[icyabstract]

@ShichimiXP Ooh ouch. Have you tried using something like the Neutrogena Makeup Remover?

[AeRoLuVeR4Eva]

HaHa funky colors I'm sorry :)

[MidNighTxKizZ]

does it last on the waterline?

[icyabstract]

@MidNighTxKizZ It stays on pretty average. Most pencil liners or liners last for about 1-2 hours on the waterline. The only product I've found that lasts for over 3 hours on the water line (for me) is the Magical Tannsu Gel Liner. The one that's supposedly the same product as the Gel Liner coastal scents carries. I have a review of that up too.

[TheDanster4]

This really helped me! Thank you! One question though, is it waterproof?

[icyabstract]

@TheDanster4 It's definitely water resistant. I've ran it under the tap and rubbed at it and it still stays intact so it'll last well on the eyes (:

[TheDanster4]

@icyabstract Okay, thanks! :D

[truelove109]

"dramatic panda eye" oh my god!!! that made me laugh so hard. oh my god. you just made my dday

[neonm402]

great review!

[Copper0Bre]

ahaa i love it when you say ecetera (:

[leliuchi1]

This help me a lot ! Thank you! : )

[icyabstract]

@leliuchi1 No problem! Glad it was of help!

[loveyoulots007]

It was so funny how you just went 'I'm SORRY!' after cursing. (:

This is very helpful. Thank you! (:

[icyabstract]

@loveyoulots007 Aha, oops. (: Glad you found it helpful!

[xRxIxNxOxAx]

lol @ "some dramatic panda eye" xDD love it haha

[CorfanaCrete]

you are so funny i love it!!!

[icyabstract]

@CorfanaCrete Thanks (:

[pignelephant]

Thanks for your rewiew....I will buy one today. You are pretty.

[icyabstract]

@pignelephant Thank you (:

[ZoEiZdAbOm808]

are these eyeliners pencils or ones that roll up?

[icyabstract]

@ZoEiZdAbOm808 They are the one that roll up. (:

[ZoEiZdAbOm808]

@icyabstract thnx im gonna try them !

[undecidedlove1231]

so if you set it with shadow will that give you you less of a chance of it smudging

[icyabstract]

@undecidedlove1231 Yes, not saying that it will not smudge at all because chances are it still might. It's the same idea as setting liquid foundation with a powder to prevent it from 'melting' with the heat throughout the day.

[PrettyLoather]

The apparent breeze in your video is EXTREMELY annoying.  Please omit this in future videos.

[icyabstract]

@PrettyLoather Well it's really hot here and during my set up back then I had the fan blowing sort of in that direction. I can understand it is annoying but your structure of speech of demanding me to omit it is quite unnecessary as what authority have you. If it is so EXTREMELY annoying I would suggest you not watch it, for yours and my sake. Thank you.

[emilydianec]

youre so very very gorgeous

[icyabstract]

@emilydianec Aw thank you very much (:

[babynur96]

your hair has definitely grew for the past year ! love it ! cant wait till my hair is crazy long ! :D

[icyabstract]

@babynur96 Yeah it has, thankfully though, I've been waiting so long for long hair again. Can't wait till your hair grows out too!

[buhrittt]

I'm thinking about getting this eyeliner.

I'm not sure vs a mac technakohl though.

[icyabstract]

@buhrittt I have never used a mac technakohl before though, so I can't compare them, sorry!

[ennasor]

hey! :) im just wondering,

becus ive tried applying eyeliner before but dare not wear it out. it looks abit strange, how to say this... like becus i have very defined double eyelid? and if i draw a thin line close to the lash line, it'll look like ive triple eyelid, or smth like tht :/ but if i apply the liner abiiit thicker, it might be over dramatic? hmm. do you experience this? lol :)

[icyabstract]

Oh, really? I don't think I have experienced that. My guess is maybe the line isn't drawn very close to the lashline that there is a bit of fleshtone showing through there? I'm not sure, but try lining the upper waterline too. Might seem scary but once you get the hang of it, it'll be alright. Makes the lashes look thicker too!

[ennasor]

ooooh! okay!! thanks :D:D i'll try to draw inner hehe thanksthanks!

[icyabstract]

No problem (: If you still have problems, you can take a photo of it and mail it to me. I can help you better that way :D

[SiLeNtLvEdREAMER]

that was really helpful! i was debating if i should get this liner or not and you helped me decide that! Thank you(:

what's your favorite concealer? because i need a new one...

[icyabstract]

Aw, you're welcome. Glad to be able to help!

Sad to say, my absolute favorite concealer would have to be MAC's studio finish concealer because it's got amazing coverage. But if you have access to Za, the Za Concealer Perfection isn't too bad too.

[MovieUploadePrincess]

I love revlon products, their really good.. I'm hoping to see you review more revlon products- especially the lip glosses!! Arigatou..for uploading..this helpful video :D P.s: I adore your hair!

[icyabstract]

I definitely will be reviewing more revlon products in future! I'm glad you found it helpful (:

[xdancinsunshine]

This is really helpful! I needed it; all the eyeliners i use smudge crazily its so embarassing. haha your funny too (:

[icyabstract]

I'm glad it's helpful! :D Aw thanks!

[karisha1is1a1pimp]

LMAO! "funky ass colors". xD

[XxinawzahxX]

I love revlon's eyeliner!...n its so much cheaper now...i tink abt $14.90...but i even bought it for $11 once when it was on offer at watsons.. =)

[icyabstract]

Oh yeap they had an offer on them once! haha. Yeah it sure is cheaper now.

[iMandiixD]

ooh okay thank you!

[iMandiixD]

it's 1:32 right now and I'm half tempted to run out there for revlon.

speaking of funky ass colorered eyelinerdo you know any good brands with good quality

[icyabstract]

Haha. I'm sure that there are plenty of brands that carry colored eyeliners. One of them would be LA Girl, and Wet N Wild. As for high end brands, MAC and Urban decay has quite a big range.

[BeautyBuzz93]

hey is this eyeliner safe for the waterline? and greatt videoss!

[icyabstract]

I'm not sure, but I use it on my waterline anyway and it's not given me problems yet (:

[TreasuredMiracle]

They're $19 there!?!?! I feel bad for yall. Its only $4 in Texas for 2. I love this eyeliner though!!

[icyabstract]

That's mad cheap! Aw, i'm jealous. haha.

[youlittlewh0re]

if revlon is $19 dollars

how much is mac @ singaporeee?!?~

[icyabstract]

A MAC shadow here is 26SGD... I know right, it's mad expensive.

[scrumptiouzz]

so you would say that the mac powerpoint is better?

[icyabstract]

No not necessarily. It depends on what you prefer. I like the MAC Powerpoint better because it's a little creamier and I do prefer pencil liners over automatic. Though, I feel the MAC powerpoint has a little bit of a higher tendency to smudge then this revlon one. However I still personally prefer the MAC one.

[dontneedtohaveone]

what is your absolute favorite eyeliner?

[icyabstract]

It would have to be MAC's Powerpoint Liner in Engraved.

[03bhoney]

oh i never saw it has a sharpener lol Nice review and I agree with you 100%

[icyabstract]

I only found out when someone else mentioned it. Though I don't actually use the sharpener very much. Aw thank you!

[03bhoney]

yh i only found out when you mentioned it lol

and your welcome :)

[violetrada]

How do you remove it? I had a hard time removing that liner before. Maybe the makeup eyes remover i used wasn't good enough. Anyway, this video helps me alot. :) Thanks!!!

[icyabstract]

I remove it using eyemakeup remover. I use the Neutrogena one and it works good. I guess for places such as the water line I would suggest using a q-tip as cotton balls are a little too fluffy to get precise there.

[joanxx24]

Love the eye makeup ~! <3 :)

[icyabstract]

Thanks!

[missiemisterie]

when u mentioned they dont smudge, its without a eyelid primer or with one? thanks!

[icyabstract]

It's with one (:

[lowbatterysound]

i've used this eyeliner and it won't smudge, even when you don't use primer.

[icyabstract]

Oh really? Thanks for this info! I'll definitely try this liner out without a primer for those days when I just have to get out the door real quick.

[anniemchong]

Thank you for the review!~

[icyabstract]

You're welcome (:

[schumannsch]

you don't have cocoa?

[icyabstract]

Nope, haven't seen that color around here.

[Elizabethxxwiz]

i got it for 4 dollors :)

well the sharpener isnt only for sharpening its for cleaning it also.

[icyabstract]

Oh, cleaning? Like the tip of the pencil bit when it gets dirty?

[susanluvsGAARA]

i luv ur eyes!!!

[icyabstract]

Thanks my dear (:

[miraclegirl90]

that is 140 dollars.hahah.

[icyabstract]

140 dollars? Lol, you lost me.

[sliimaa92]

how long does it last on your waterline?

[icyabstract]

The intense or fairly dark color would last about 2 or so hours depending on how much your eyes tear up. However it does not completely disappear from your waterline, it would sort of darken it a little even though it's faded, but definitely not as intense as a when applied.

[annie2062003]

i really thought your review of this product to be very helpful. i was thinking about purchasing it or not. thanks.

[icyabstract]

I'm glad you found it helpful (:

[meepmap]

i use that it kinda irritates my eyes but i have sensitive eyes. thanks so much for this video!

[icyabstract]

Oh I see... aw that sucks because from what I know this is one of the best/cheapest good liners out there. haha. You're welcome (:

[mermaid000pranu]

hey, is this eye liner in the form of a pencil or a twister??

[icyabstract]

it's in the form of a twister. The automatic kind.

[roseunderthe94]

wow! 19 dollars?! its only $6 or $7 where i live!

[icyabstract]

Yeap, it's in Singapore dollars though. Everything here is about that price... I guess it's because it's shipped from the states so it's also incurred some shipping costs. When I go to the states, I'm snagging a hell load of these. haha.

[FaKATz3]

Really nice video. (:

I bought that eyeliner like a week ago, and i'm so addicated! it BARELY smudges, like you said. :D I got 3 of my friends buy it too!!

I only got black, but Berry one looks really nice, i'll look for it next time.

Btw, have you tried the Revlon Colorstay foundation for Oily\Combo and the powder? If you did, can you give it a comment for me?

thanks. :D

[icyabstract]

Haha totally!

You're asking about the liquid foundation for oily/combo skin right? I don't have that one, neither do I have a powder one, but instead, I have the cream to powder foundation. If you would like for me to comment on that I could.

[kayliegh15]

impressive. you only need one more till you get all of it. teal.

[icyabstract]

Oh yes. I've seen in on the website but have yet to see it in stores. Guess I'm not looking hard enough. haha. But I don't know I'll need to get the whole color range anyway. I would hardly use teal, I guess.

[superbadyoshi]

i subscribed!

nice vids!

[icyabstract]

Thank you so much! (: I'm glad you like the videos.

[sereneseraph]

I have no idea what kind of eyelids I have. Lol. I think mine are "normal", not too dry not too oily, I'm not sure...should I get it :O I ran out of eyeliner and don wanna spend 30+ bucks on another useless one

[icyabstract]

Mine are fairly normal too I guess, in terms of eyelids and all... I'd say that in my opinion it's really awesome liner and it really doesn't budge if you do set it with a shadow. Most crayon/kohl liners would smudge eventually but this is pretty resilient. If you don't set it, it will smoke out a little which is common I guess. I'd say get it! But then again it depends on how you define a good liner.

[BerriKitti]

Great review! I love these revlon liners. I tried so many liners they all smudge or fade.

I never purchase their colored ones but I have to try it someday.

[icyabstract]

They are pretty cool, Raisin's a good color to own, it's pretty different. Like a royal maroon-brown or something.

[fml5119]

YES!!! , i do find tis REVIEW so USEFUL !!! thanx 4 de 3 important tips about eyeliner . i'm sure gonna buy it !!! =D .

[icyabstract]

Aw thanks (: I hope it works great for you! It really is a pretty awesome liner.

[LilJadey10]

hi i love your vids

[icyabstract]

Thanks!

[pinkcharms]

hi girl! can i request for a video on how you store makeup? ^^

[icyabstract]

Oh yeap sure! I'm just figuring out how to do it because I usually record on my laptop and it's a bit hard to film my makeup storage with it. I'm trying to borrow my dad's digicam to video it. haha.
