Revlon Pacific Coast Collection - LE White Mist Gel Eyeliner

Hello!

Today I wanted to share the One item I picked up from the new Revlon Pacific Coast Collection by Gucci Westman.

Picture from LisaLovesMakeup87.blogspot.com

 
The 4 nail polishes were colors I feel like I have, the 2 eye shadow palettes were colors I have (and I really didn't like how they looked in the ad pictures...) I had heard the mini blush sticks were a bit waxy, and the lip butters are part of the permanent collection from what I can tell.  SOOOO I just got the white gel eyeliner.

 
 
I got it at Walgreens for $9.99.
 
 


The brush hooks into the lid - it's not the best mechanism I have ever tried but just using the short part of the brush works ok.  I was really hoping the eyeliner would be an opaque white - but it's a shimmery sheer white.


I swatched it both "wide" and "thin" on the left and then on the right I smudged in some matte pink eye shadow to see if I could also use it as a base for making it what ever color I want - and it will work with some finessing :)

Overall - it's ok.  I fully admit to being a gel eyeliner snob, I primarily only use Bobbi Brown, Inglot, and MAC fluidline so this is one of those things I really need to be wowed by and I am willing to pay a bit more for and Inglot is only $12 sooo $9.99 for Revlon is pushing it.

Have you tried anything from this collection?

    I didn't see these with the stands for this collection, I guess we didn't get them here. I agree I'd prefer that this was matte but I could still see this being pretty. The new Rimmel gel eyeliners are meant to be good.

    I've been lusting over the new lip butters but haven't picked anything up yet. Worst comes to worst you could use this in the inner corner or on the lower lashline to brighten up eye makeup?

      That is very true! I know I'll be able to use it, I just wanted it to be more white.

    Wow.. they didn't even bother giving this collection a name here in the UK. They just added the new lines, and shades to the existing lines! Boring! I love the new products, especially the new shadow quads xx

      Sometimes that's good - a lot of the stores here only get one small display like the one I pictured. So if you don't get one of the 2 or 3 they have on display you are out of luck!

    I hear you on being a snob about certain products. That looks okay, but not worth the $10, imo.

    Aw, I love gel eyeliners as well. I use the maybelline kind though. I am bummed that it's not an opaque matte white though, I was so excited! Ah well, guess I'm sticking to my Nyx Milk

    The pink one looks nice but I honestly don't care about the extra packaging for the brush. The one thing that bothers me most about gel liners is having to always clean a brush afterward.

    How do you use a gel white eyeliner? do you use it on your upperlash line?
