This is my second installment on the Mally Golden Rule of Beauty Gift set and in this post I'll be talking about the eye products that it came with. If you missed my last post click here so you can read about the lip and cheek products.
The firs product I'll be talking about is the Evercolor Starlight Waterproof liner in Midnight. As you can see, it's very dark and pigmented. I think we all can appreciate a pigmented liner so we're not pulling on our eyes trying to get color.
It's also super creamy which I love, because I like to take a small brush and flick it up into a slight cat-eye so I'm glad that I'm able to manipulate it and smooth out the line if I need to. I'm not the best at eyeliner, so this being easy for me makes it awesome in my book. Don't be fooled, though, while it is really creamy and I can smooth it out, it doesn't budge throughout the day.
The eyeshadow that the set came with is called Brownstone. Like the blush, the eyeshadow singles come in a compact with a mirror. You can also remove the shadow from the compact, if you can see the little lip at the bottom of the pan. I'm not sure what the purpose of this is but it could come in handy.
The shade itself is a cool-toned brown with subtle hints of shimmer. It's not as pigmented as other products I've talked about, but I kind of like that for this product. I like that I don't have to be super careful when applying it and worrying that it's going to get out of control and dark. It applies a nice wash of color that adds a pretty sheen to the eyes.
The Volumizing mascara is probably the most famous product from Mally and I definitely find what most people say about it to be true, that it gets better with age. The formula is quite wet, so over time it dries out a little and just becomes better. I think that from the start it is volumizing, but over time as it dries out little by little, it helps lengthen as well because the formula isn't as wet and weighing. I liked this product and I'm glad I got to try it, but I don't think I would repurchase just because it didn't "wow" me enough to switch from my favorite drugstore one.
I hope you guys enjoyed these posts on this gift set. Hopefully this set, or a similar one will come out for the holidays this year because I would definitely recommend this, especially for the price!!
I used to have that eyeliner in a navy color, but I used it up! It was definitely one of my favorite eyeliner formulations for smudgy liner, though! Great reviews!
