Max Factor High Definition Felt Tip Eyeliner Pen in Brown

I had picked this up on eBay for £3.99 with free delivery, it looks like the seller still has them as well here. I have been trying out a couple of different pens recently as I find them far easier to use as I am rubbish with eyeliner, you can see my review of the other felt tip liners I own here.

I have been using E.L.F Coffee as my brown eyeliner recently but I fancied trying something else and found this when I was researching to buy one. I spotted it on eBay but so far I haven't been able to find it to buy in a high street store, but I'll keep looking. The only Max Factor one I can find in Boots is is Max Factor Colour Perfection Eye Liner for £4.99, which come in Black or Brown.



The pen is very easy to use and as I have found with these felt tips they glide on very well so even someone as rubbish as me gets a nice even line. My hand tends to shake when I am doing eye liner normally so I end up with a right mess! To apply these liners I do tend to draw a slightly thicker line, than I would with a liquid liner, so I can guarantee that it is neat.

I much prefer the colour and it does go on better then my ELF ones. I sometimes find that the tips of my ELF ones are not very soft on my eyes and go a bit hard. I have since purchased another 1 off eBay as I'm worried about running out! I have basically been using it most days as its so quick and easy to put on for a casual EOTD. I am going to look at the other one Max Factor does in Boots next time I am there to see if it is the same.

Does anyone know where else I can buy these from? Also what are your thoughts on Felt Tip Liners?

Felt Tip Eyeliners

I popped into good old Bletchley yesterday for a bit of a shop and ended up in our small but good Superdrug, it really does have a good choice of make-up to look at. I wasn't really looking for any in particular but ended up getting a Collection 2000 Extreme 24 hour Felt Tip Liner in blue, . I had been on the hunt for a blue one as I had previously got one from Eyeko that was Navy but I just didn't like the colour on me. I really do find these felt tip pen version far easier to use, I have not been using eyeliner for long and I am rubbish at it!



So as I wanted to show you my new purchase I thought I would show you the other Felt Tip Liners I have.


(l-r ELF, Eyeko, Collection 2000)


Now I have 2 of these liners from Eyeko, I brought these a while back for £5 and Eyeko currently have them on offer for 3 for 2 here. The colours I have a navy and purple, the navy has not come out well in the photo sorry.


My favourite of the two is the purple, it is such a great colour of and lasts soooo well on my eyes. The navy is nice but or me the colour just does not work as well as the purple on my eyes. Eyeko state that these should be 'smudge-proof, fade-proof and long lasting' and I completely agree. Also they are a good price for £5 and currently come in Black, Navy and Purple.







The next three I have are from E.L.F, now these are a complete bargain for £1.50 and are available in Coffee, Black, Midnight, Ash and Plum and you can see them here, I have the Plum, Ash and Coffee.


I have to say the Coffee is the most used of mine, I love it on! sometimes the Ash and Plum are a bit tooo dark for me to use everyday. Theses don't go on as well as the Eyeko liners and don't seem to last very well, I am already on my third coffee one. But for £1.50 I am not going to complain too much about them as I will keep buying them, until I can find another brown I like. I have just order two new brands to try so will update you soon.




And now onto the new one I got from Collection 2000 Extreme 24Hr Liner, I have got the blue and they also come in Teal, Purple and Black.




I love this colour sooooo much and is more the blue I have been looking for. They are intensive colours and are suppose to stay put all day, but that's what I'm worried about when I tried this out on my arm for the swatch it was very difficult to get off even with eye make-up remover. I then put on my eye's and I had the same problem taking it off. So maybe they have a bit too much staying power! But might look to get the Teal still as such a lovely colour!




Have you tried any o these Felt Tip Liners, let us know what you thought?
