CHECKOUT COUNTER: Winging it
MANILA, Philippines - If you think perfecting your eyebrows is hard enough as it is, then you probably haven’t tried putting on liquid eyeliner yet. Beauty bloggers, makeup artists and even friends who are exceptionally skilled in this art have left us all in awe whenever they line their eyes with just a flick of the wrist. Just remembering the unimaginable number of minutes, cotton buds and concealer pots we have wasted to achieve barely decent-looking wings will make us want to question why we even try.
Turning our “maybes” into “yeses” is our ever-dependable Maybelline New York cosmetics. Their new Hyperink Liquid Liner promises long-lasting, smudgeproof and intensely black liners that are perfect for achieving both our day and night looks. Its flexi-cushion tip allows extreme control, making it easy for us to apply accordingly to our preferred wingtip. During the Jan. 12 event, celebrity makeup artist and fitness enthusiast Jigs Mayuga shared with us that he put the Hyperink to a stress test with a female workout buddy. He was impressed that the liner remained intact despite the sweat and reps they endured throughout their spinning class — further proving to him that its formula can withstand any busy person’s schedule.
Like a gift that keeps on giving, Maybelline priced our newest holy grail product (wink-wink) at only P199. High-quality makeup at drugstore prices? Yes — and more, please. We know that with this liner, we’ll be flawlessly winging our busy days away.
