Fame

I'm not talking about the Lady Gaga perfume here (although, I must say that I was very disappointed at it...) but the gorgeous Makeup Geek gel liner that it shares its name with. Since I did experience a few problems with this liner I will make a list afterwards with pros and cons. :)



To balance out the coolness of the teal liner I used Prom night (Makeup Geek) on my lid and Latte to emphasize the crease and outer corner. I liked the result a lot with my blue eyes but I LOVE to "paint" my eyes brown in PS afterwards and I think that Fame really makes brown eyes "pop".



This is what it looks like with my natural, blue eye color. For the lips I chose black, which I almost always do. XD




Face
*Skin base foundation 02 (Illamasqua)
*Studio Finish Concealer (M.A.C.)*

Eyebrows
*Corrupt (Makeup Geek)

Eyes
*Prom Night (Makeup Geek)
*Latte (Makeup Geek)
*White lies (Makeup Geek)
*Gel liner Fame (Makeup Geek)
*Eye kohl Smolder (M.A.C.)*
*Gel liner Immortal (Makeup Geek)

Lips
*Goth (Viva la Diva)

*IMPORTANT: Since M.A.C. has decided to start testing their products on animals I can no longer recommend you to buy these products! The reason why I'm still using them is because I bought them before it came to my knowledge that M.A.C. would become a non-cruelty free brand. I won't however buy any new products by them since animals are more important to me than looking good.

So, what are the pros and cons with this gel liner now that I have tried it out more properly?

Pros
*Gorgeous color!
*Very pigmented
*Long lasting

Cons
*The formula is a little bit too thick, which makes it hard to work with when doing precision work such as the winged out eyeliner. It is also very irritating with such a thick formula because it "clogs" the brush and makes it hard to clean.

*During the day the color transferred a little to my lid (you know when you blink and get it on your crease...). One of my readers also had problem with transfer with this liner, so I guess its something that you might expect from Fame.

I will give you a similar update for the other Makeup Geek gel liners when I try them on a little more. :)

Thank you so much for the response on the last post I wrote (about The Body Shop). I'm glad to hear your opinions!

Have a nice day and hope to see you soon! :)
