REVIEW: Revlon Precision Clear Lash Adhesive


The convenient brush for lash adhesive application

The compact packaging makes it easy to carry around for touch-up 
(which is not necessary in this case)

~AG~

This lash adhesive has been in my beauty box for over two years. I know, I know. It is waaayy past its shelf life. Because I rarely wear false lashes, this lash adhesive has only been used a handful of times. 

This affordable lash adhesive only costs me US$5 (~S$6). In the United States, you can find this lash adhesive in selected Walmart, CVS and Walgreen outlets. In Singapore, I have seen it being sold in Sasa and selected Watsons outlet. Before, I used the popular Duo lash glue, but found it inconvenient to use. I tend to over apply the Duo lash glue on the false lashes. What attracts me most to the Revlon lash adhesive is the brush application which allows for easier application of lash adhesive. According to the package, it is waterproof and latex-free. On the tube, the lash adhesive is white but it dries clear. It has a more watery consistency compared to Duo lash glue. When you apply it on the dark false lashes, it appears bluish.

I just applied a coat of the lash adhesive on the false lashes. The Revlon lash adhesive dries more quickly compared to Duo lash glue. It became tacky in less than 10 seconds. Overall, it is easier to use and less messy compared to Duo lash glue. Plus, its small packaging allows me to conveniently travel with it.

Eyeliners Series Introduction

Eyeliners

~AG~

In the next few days, I will start a series of posts regarding eyeliners. Over the years, I have tried more than 20 eyeliners. Some drugstore brands, some high-end brands. You name it, I have probably tried it. Bobbi Brown, MAC Cosmetics, Urban Decay, Stila, Lancome, NARS, Tony Moly, 24k Palette, Almay, Revlon, Milani, Eyeko and The Face Shop. All the different formulas I have tried - pencil, liquid eyeliner, felt tip, gel eyeliner.


A little introduction about my eyeliners experience.  I have single eyelids that tend to smudge eyeliners to the lower lids. So, I am always on the quest to find THE perfect eyeliner that would not smudge, is waterproof and is easy to use. Simple enough right? To find such a perfect eyeliner has been full of trials and errors. Now, I can narrow down my HG eyeliners to 3 eyeliners. Stay tuned to see which 3 eyeliners are my HGs!
