One of the things I was very excited about when I went to
Bangkok was makeup and skincare. I’ve heard so much about Thai beauty products,
so being the makeup junkie that I am, I just couldn’t go home without trying a
few, right?
I was planning on going to Eve and Boy in Siam Square, but
we were all so tired after a long day of walking and exploring. We did go to
Sephora in Siam Center, but we just couldn’t go any farther (we never took cabs
when we go out, mind you. We just walk). But on the way back to the hotel, we
happen to pass by a Karmart store in Platinum Fashion Mall, so I just had to go
in!
Karmart houses some known Thai beauty brands – Cathy Doll,
Baby Bright, Jejuvita, Cathy Choo, Crayon, and Reunrom. And of course, all of
the products are super inexpensive! So I did buy a few which I used and sold to
friends too.
According to the website, The Baby
Bright Slim Line Black Charcoal Eyeliner is: “Smudge-proof. Fast drying. Easy usage. For perfect end of every stroke.
The blend of Charcoal helps control oil on the lids too!”
The Good Bits:
All of the claims from their website are true! Aside from it
being really cheap, it is really smudge-proof and fast drying. As a matter of
fact, I used it when we (me, my husband, and sister-in-law) partied at Khao San
Road while it was raining! When I got back to the hotel, my eyeliner was still
there. It didn’t budge. Aside from that, it’s also very easy to use since it
has a felt tip sturdy end. I would recommend this to those who are still
learning how to do wings.
The Bad Bits:
Its fast drying feature is both a pro and a con. If you make
a mistake while doing your wing, you can’t just wipe it off and repeat. You
need to use wipes or makeup remover just to take it off. It feels like it quickly
dries the second it touches your skin. Another effect of that is when you leave
the cap off for too long, it can dry up easily too. We all know the solution to
that though (the
warm water technique), but it can be such a hassle, right?
Over-All:
I bought an extra eyeliner pen just because I loved it so
much. I’m giving this a rating of 8/10.
Should I find myself back in Bangkok, I am definitely repurchasing (and will
definitely go to Siam Square the next time for more beauty products!).

It's not actually easy to find a good retractable eyeliner at an affordable price, good on you to find one and bought extra too. I like your foundation, looking pretty dear!

No budge eyeliner is a must have for me, especially since I sweat easily and also have oily lids!
ReplyDeleteYou look so cute, gel! :) Love the look on you! Feeling ko I would have a lot of cons with that product just cos i don't know how to apply makeup! hahaha It would dry before I even ace the wing!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds amazing! I actually prefer eye liners that dries down quick so it doesn't smudge easily but it can be a pain when you make a mistake.

It looks awesome! I can't apply eyeliner at all, but this looks great! :) It's impressive that it stays put even in the rain too.
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a lovely weekend :) It was the little one's birthday party yesterday so that was a lot of fun! Today is a quiet day to recover after that busy day and crazy week though, haha!
