Eyeko Liquid Metal Eyeliner

Eyeko Liquid Metal Eyeliner is the last of my Eyeko purchase this past September, along with Skinny Liquid Eyeliner in Brown, Visual Eyes Liquid Eyeliners in Ebony and Mocha, and Brow Liner (only 1 color).

For these Liquid Metal Eyeliners, there are 2 colors available, Black Onyx and Rose Gold. I bought only Black Onyx at the time (though over the Thanksgiving promotion I received Rose Gold as GWP, will review later).

All pictures taken in natural light without flash.


Like the Visual Eyes, this is a brush-tip pen. But whereas the Visual Eyes are self-dispensing, this Liquid Metal has a twist dispenser at the bottom that allows you to twist up however much you think you need. And whereas the Visual Eyes has watery runny ink that requires shaking up, this Liquid Metal has a thicker, gel-like ink. 

- Black Onyx: fans of jet black liners rejoice! Given the thicker gel-link ink, this eyeliner comes out jet black! That said, I'm somewhat disappointed with it. I was hoping for a sparkling black, you know, it's called liquid metal and all, with "gold pearls" to spice things up. Turns out the "gold pearls" are rather wimpy, scant, and scattered. So it comes out a jet black liner with a speck of gold here and there that doesn't really show at all. Boo. Hiss.
