Items such as coloured eyeliner, mascara, cream eyeshadows, lippies, tinted balms, & cream blushes. I am sure they'll have other variations as well. Right now the items seem very promising - they go on smoothly, they are pigmented and they have lasting power. (Snuck to an Ulta to check out a few items!)..and of course trying them out myself!
I review two of their lippies here: Click Me!
Today I will be showing you WINK Eye Pencil in Indigo Punk.
It is described as "Violet shimmer. Deep purple anything - a punk rock obsession.".
An obsession, yes it might be one. I love love purple eye products, my #1 being purple mascara which I don't have at the moment to show you... but I just LOVE IT. I tried many many brands over the years and my favourite is STILL Red Earth's V2 Purple mascara which sadly I have to say is no longer available..*cry*. No other brand has stood up to the intensity of it...hopefully I will be able to get my hands on the butter LONDON version soon to test it up!!! But enough rambling lol!
The liner itself is a simple eyeliner - black in design w/ a cap. It has a coloured tip to show you the colour. When new, it has a rounded tip which provides smooth application.
I really like this eye pencil. I do prefer pencil for my eyeliner with a liquid overlay but with this colour I couldn't! *hint hint - maybe liquid eyeliners next??)...
It does take 2 strokes for build up due to its texture.. it feels 'gel-ish' and it recommends giving time to set. I didn't test it for 24 hours ( I couldn't stay up that long anymore!!) but I think I had it on for about 14 hours? and although it had a bit of fading (due to my oily lids) it lasted!
I wore it alone for more of a fresh lightened look & I wore it smudged with black for a darker edgier look. My skills are limited but trust me, the colour is gorg..
Someone pointed to me that it seems to have different intensity in the two looks I did, It is because in the picture with black eyeliner also, I stroke it twice! (as I was saying - the build up)..

After 14-15 hours of wear: a day of shopping, cooking, a job interview, a nap, dinner and open window driving ...(fun day right? :P)
Notice the bit of wear but when my eyes are opened you can hardly tell!
Using Indigo Punk lined with Sephora Flashy Black eyeliner & Laura Mercier mascara. Lower lash lined with Indigo Punk on outer edge.
A purple eyeliner gives a soft makeup look yet doesn't wash me out. Picture includes butter LONDON's wag on my lips.. lol..
Not a big fan of showing my face but I really like how everything was purple!! I did switch into a purple shirt after too ^^..
This was before all the face stuff! so ignore the eyebags / discolouration :(
Usually I put a purple blob on these pictures but.... not for this :P enjoy..
