I always feel triumphant when I am able to find great drugstore eyeliners, and it hurts a whole lot less if you happen to lose one while traveling when it only cost you a few dollars in the first place. My latest drugstore eyeliner discovery is the NYC New York Color HD Automatic Waterproof Eyeliner, and I have been testing out 4 out of the five shades available.
NYC New York Color HD Automatic Waterproof Eyeliners in Black, Navy Blue, Deep Brown and Turquoise are pigmented pencils that effortlessly glide across the skin and deposit color evenly without tugging or pulling. The consistency, of all four shades, is super creamy, soft and smooth. Each shade that I tested can be smudged out for a smoky eye or boldly defined for a crisp cat-eye. They don't crumble or flake, and once they set I get all day wear without fading or transfer, but it should be noted that I do not have oily eyelids. The convenient twist up liners have a built-in smudger sponge and a hidden built-in sharpener underneath the smudged for extra convenience.
Twist, line and smudge! HD Automatic Eyeliner makes your dream eye look easy and speedy. This skinny pencil just twists up to reveal a perfect point that makes applying color a breeze. At the other end is a brilliant pro-style blending tool for customising your look.
These super soft liners provide intense color in a perfectly smooth formula, giving you coverage that never pulls or flakes. The waterproof formula offers style that stays all day, and with a built-in smudger and auto-sharpener, this retractable liner gives you ultimate control for any eye style.
Benefits:
- Long lasting
- Waterproof
- Retractable and ultra precise application
Available in 5 shades: Black (001), Navy Blue (002), Deep Brown (003), Turquoise

ReplyDeleteI am really pleased with their quality, and frankly I find it a touch hard to believe that they are only $2.00 each!
DeleteOnly two bucks?! I need to try them ALL! lol It always pains me to shell out $18 or $20 or however much Urban Decay pencils cost. I will definitely check these out!
ReplyDeleteI know, it's hard to believe that it is so affordable! You can buy all 5 shades for less than the cost of a single liner from Urban Decay! These are definitely worth checking out!
DeleteSo glad to know about this steal! I like NYC and I've found a number of products from that brand that I enjoy using. For $2, I may need to pick up the turquoise and navy and the dark brown looks good too
ReplyDeleteIt's almost a ridiculous deal! I suspect that you will really like these a lot! I agree completely, for $2.00 you can buy as many as you want without even the slightest twinge of guilt!

DeleteI haven't tried many NYC items, but OMG, I must have that teal...it is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHi Kristina, Is it a gorgeous shade of teal?! I have no idea why they called it turquoise because it's definitely a lovely shade of teal! It is definitely worth having, and for that price you can buy backups for your backups without any guilt!
DeleteI lurvvveee that turquoise! Dang it is so pretty. :D I admit, I'd rather be able to find a good cheapie drugstore brand of eyeliner. LOL
ReplyDeleteMe too, isn't it insanely gorgeous?! I know what you mean, and frankly it's hard to tell the difference once worn between a great quality drugstore eyeliner and an expensive one from a department store. Plus that gap keeps getting smaller and smaller between the two as drugstore brands continue to up their game!
DeleteI always forget about NYC being such a solid drugstore brand! I'm gonna have to check these out.
ReplyDeleteI did to until I tried these eyeliners, and now they are definitely back on my radar in a BIG way! You should definitely check these beauties out!
DeleteI never think of picking up NYC products, but these do look really promising. Turquoise is particularly gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThese are definitely worth checking out, and Turquoise would be absolutely stunning on you!
