Hayan Korea Real Black Liquid Eye Liner Review

Posted on the 02 August 2013 by Ileodarod @ilevillegas
Once upon a time I got sick and tired of liquid eyeliners and decided to switch to gel eyeliner. But then I got disappointed with the ones I tried and decided to go back to liquid eyeliners again. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find the right liquid eyeliner for me. Well let me tell you that my search has come to an end when I was sent Hayan Korea Real Black Liquid Eye Liner!

When it comes to liquid eyeliners, I am only particular about two things: the formulation and the brush
The brush of this liquid eyeliner is a super super thin soft brush.Hayan Korea Real Black Liquid Liner ReviewHayan Korea Real Black Liquid Eye Liner brush loaded with eyeliner.

Texture and SmellThe actual liquid eyeliner is thick enough so it's not runny, but not too thick that you'll have trouble during application.It smells a bit like ink of a regular ball point pen. But it's a very mild scent that I hadn't noticed until I intentionally sniffed it.
ColorVery opaque and has a slightly shiny finish once it's dry. I love that one dip is already enough for one eye.

Waterproof?Hayan Korea Real Black Liquid Eye Liner ReviewIt doesn't instantly dissolve in water.Hayan Korea Real Black Liquid Eye Liner ReviewAfter rubbing
It rubs off easily when wet. This is a good thing for me actually. At the end of the day, I always have trouble removing eyeliner. And this one I can easily remove with a wet Q-tip. 
Now what if you're a cry baby?The thing is, it doesn't really melt when it comes in contact with water. So even if you've been crying, or you forgot to bring your umbrella so you got wet in the rain, you're still good as long as you don't rub your eyes.
LongevityLasts the whole day! I wore this when we went to the farm for my Grandfather's birthday. It was a long ride to get there. It was humid and I've been sweating and all(had too much fun picking rambutan fruits with cousins) but at the end of the day, at 9PM, when I looked at the mirror, the line I created with this eyeliner earlier in the morning is still intact.
Ease of UseSeriously, I cringe every time I look at my past pictures and realize how unnatural I wore my liquid eyeliner back then. Well there are times when a thick line is actually good, and I might still go with that every now and then. I just regret it that I didn't know it's this easy to create a thin line if only I've been using the right product. It also dries moderately fast, about 30 seconds I guess. This is no issue to me but it might be for some girls with monolids.
