A tiny liner that creates HUGE drama...

Tarte emphasEYES inner rim eye pencil

I've worn eyeliner every day for almost as long as I can remember and could never master the art of applying it right against my lash line (especially on my lower lid.) I bought this today to try it out because I was curious to see if it actually worked. Here are my thoughts:
  • If you are sensitive about anything touching your eyes or even if you're just extremely ticklish, this may take some getting used to... Drawing on the inside of your eyelid is not exactly and everyday feeling and it really does tickle like crazy.
  • For a really casual, not too made-up look, this is great all by itself with just a tiny bit of mascara to open up your eyes.
  • The pigment is not super rich unless you go over the line a few times. Even with one coat it does fill in any gaps you may have between your lashes though.
  • When applied in conjunction with a thicker liner, you get a really bold, dramatic look which I LOVE.
  • The tip is really tiny and fine so don't expose too much of it or it will break. One or two clicks is all you really need to bring up at a time.
  • Because this brand uses natural ingredients in all of their products, it doesn't feel like it would be irritating to sensitive eyes. 
Here are a few creepy, up-close pictures of my eyes so you can see the results. I have it along my inner rim with a heavier line on the outside.


Cost: $18

Tarte products can be found at Ulta, Sephora, online, and are sometimes featured on QVC.
