San San Gel Eyeliner Review - Beauty Theories

Hi ladies!
I prefer gel eyeliners than pencil or liquid ones. I find them easier to work with, and generally lasts longer than other liners I have tried. It is also the most versatile, because you can change the thickness of the line you want to create by simply changing brushes.
Being somebody on a college budget, I searched for a gel eyeliner that is affordable, but works.
I found this eyeliner and I want to share what I think about it!

The packaging looks super weird, but very purposeful. There is a detachable brush attached to the cap. The brush is actually very useful, I like using it better than angled brushes for gel liners.
Price: P115.00
Shade: Black
Where to purchase: HBC stores

You can actually reattach the cap upside down to get this. Haha. It works pretty well either way.

❤❤❤❤♡

The San san gel eyeliner is a very great find. This is my go to liner when I have to perform because it stays on my lids no matter how much sweat I produce. The only downside to this product is that you have to be very careful not to rub your eyes, or else you'll have something like that of a panda. This is not very easy to remove with just water or facial wash, you have to use makeup remover.

Thank you for reading!

I hope you found this helpful, even though the product has been out in the market for too long.

Let me know what you think about the product, feel free to comment. I would appreciate it a lot. :)

What is your favorite gel eye liner? Will you give this a try?

God bless you!
