Welcome to my 2nd Blog post on The Hot Hippie!!! Today I want to talk about a brand I am really liking. Baviphat Cosmetics the brand was establishes in 2009. They have become very popular in Korea and are now being sold all over Asia. I have used a lot of there skincare products and love them. So I figured why not try there cosmetics. I ordered this eyeliner from a US Ebay seller for 4.54$ with free shipping. It retails for around 3$ so with free shipping this was a win win for me if you add it all up.:)
Now lets take a look at this gel eyeliner.
It has 5 grams of product and Baviphat is known for their adorable packaging. It's geared towards teens but hey ladies can like it too;P Obviously the Sugar Girl line is being marketed to teens but the inner child in me loves this shimmery purple! They are known as the Benefit of Asian cosmetics and skincare. They use a very popular Korean boy band who are super pretty too;)
Now let's take a look at the colour itself.
It's cold here on the island so the product was very cold when it arrived. Hence the crack once it warmed up it was very easy with an angled MAC brush to apply a swatch to my hand. Here's a swatch of this gorgeous purple.
When I looked at it up close I noticed it had many colours that gave it a beautiful sparkle. It has blues,reds, and silver. It's not the type of sparkle that is OTT. It is subtle and it made my green eyes pop.:) In terms of wear it's amazing it did not budge or crease. Once you apply it, it stays on till you take it off which is very impressive. I left the swatch on my hand till today to see how long this bad boy would last. Take a look for yourself it's pretty impressive!
For 24 hours I think it held up really well through my hand and face washing. A good remover of this is Lancomes Bi-Facil because this is on par with Urban Decay in terms of how long it lasts. Finally here it is on me so you can see how it looks on.
.
Application you would think this would be very gel like but it's actually quite hard. I had to use a very firm small angled brush. My MAC one was way too soft the one from ELF was the best. The product applies like a solid eyeliner but very easily believe it or not. I have had it on since this morning and it has not budged. Here's a pic of me rocking the Pearl Purple it looks very natural not too bold
I used my Naked3 palette for the rest of the look. It is a very good liner I recommend it, you just have to make sure you use the right brush. It has to be a firm bristled brush or really warm it up. I am going to try leaving this in the sun to see how soft this can get and be used. I will report back on what I find. What say ye on this eyeliner? What shades do you own? I'd luv to know:)
Tip: To keep your gel liner from drying out leave it upside down. If you want to restore you gel liner add 2 drops of mixing medium or and oil like Apricot. Use an oil that is safe for the eye area but you know that;) Add 2 drops and keep it in a warm place for it to sink in. Worse case you can always use the Microwave for 10 seconds watch it. Stir and it should be revived. Here's a link for different ways of revival. http://bunbunmakeuptips.com/does-using-heat-to-revive-your-dried-up-gel-eyeliner-really-work/
Till then Peace,Love,and Makeup!
