It looks like Wet n Wild has surprised me with yet another quality product for less! A few weeks ago, the night before Halloween, I headed to my local Walgreen's to find some cheap makeup fast. I was a little wary to pick up more Wet n Wild products, but the price was just too tempting! I picked up a few liquid eyeliners and some lipstick and headed out.
In the end, I was more or less pleased with the Wet n Wild MegaLiner Liquid Eyeliner. What's good and not-so-good about this product? Keep reading to find out, and maybe you'll want to give them a shot yourself!
Product Description: "Make a statement! Create a thin line for a subtle yet distinctive look. Or sweep on bolder strokes to lay on the drama. Available in a variety of shades to complement every eye color and skin tone."
Price: $2.99/0.12 oz.
Results: Obviously, I was a little skeptical about this eyeliner, and there were definitely a few things that turned me off a bit... but no deal-breakers. The one thing I disliked most about the product was that the brush can be slightly flimsy; because it's so thin, it isn't as stiff as I usually prefer. However, this makes it so the brush does not tug on the eyes at ALL, which is great for our skin!
Because the brush is thin, it also means that you can create some of the thinnest lines imaginable. And by applying more pressure, you can create a thicker, more dramatic line, or simply layer thin lines over each other. This means you have much more control over the look and line you get than with other liquid eyeliners.
One other small setback is that you must be careful not to touch your eyes while wearing the product, as it CAN smudge, especially when it isn't completely dry yet. I found the wear to be great, aside from the possible smudging if I wasn't careful - but it seemed to last nearly all day, sometimes longer.
For the price, you get a good amount of product; more than some other brands' liquid eyeliners give you (including my trusty Prestige liquid liners). Given this, it should last you for a decent amount of time.
The color selection includes six different colors: black, blue, turquoise, brown, plum, and opal. I have to say that the one I chose, turquoise, is a beautiful shade! It's very bright and pigmented, and brightens up my blue eyes immediately. It will also give an incredible pop of color to brown eyes! Personally, I can't wait to try the other colors in the collection.
All in all, a great value for a nice product. It still has a few improvements to be made, but nothing really stood out strongly enough to make me dislike it.
You'll like this product if: You want a good liquid eyeliner for less; you enjoy thinner, flexible eyeliner brushes; you don't need a waterproof eyeliner
You won't like this product if: You prefer a thicker, stiffer eyeliner brush; you're looking for a very long-lasting product
Rating: 3.5/5

I have one of these in dark brown that I scored this summer for .50. I'll have to give it a test run. Great review. Any liquid liner faves?
