Faces Long Wear Eye Pencil In Teal : Swatches & Review

Hi Girls, up for another colored eye pencil? This one is Faces Long Wear Eye Pencil in Teal. Teal is a very wearable color specially on eyes. A true Teal shade looks amazing no matter how you wear it. I got this teal liner with Lotus Herbals Colorkick Kajal in Royal Blue & Mystic Green. Blue is an eccentric shade for eyes, but teal is mesmerizing.

Faces offer this smudge proof, water proof & highly pigmented liner in 7 shades. The formula is soft, long wearing and free of paraffin & preservatives. The liner is tested Dermatoligiaclly & Ophthalmologically.

Price

Rs. 449 for 1.2gm. Buy here.

Packaging

It is a sharpable black pencil with teal colored cap & band at the bottom making it easy to distinguish between a pile of pencils. The features of the pencil are mentioned on the pencil, like It is smudge proof, water proof & stays for long on eyes. No sharpner is shipped with the pencil. The packaging is convenient if I ignore the sharpening effort. It is easily portable hence travel friendly.

Fragrance & Texture

It is a creamy & smooth gliding eye pencil. Goes on lash line & water line effortlessly, leaving behind a beautiful color, no tugging is required. As such no fragrance, but if I sniff the pencil tip there is some waxy smell, which is very mild.

To have a perfect winged liner out of this, you need to sharpen it every time, because of it’s creamy texture it tends to loose it’s tip.

Shades

Faces brings 7 quirky shades of Long Wear Eye Pencil for you. Persian Blue, Electric, Smog, Teal, Plum, Olive, Smoke.

Shade – Teal

This is a bright Teal shade with bit of greenish hint & shin to it, which makes it hard to miss. It is a nice shade, but make sure you put on some concealer if you have dark eye lid or dark circles around your eyes to bring out the true beauty of this color.

Pigmentation

One swipe gives nice color pay off, and you can go on building more color by re-swiping the pencil without feeling sticky or flaky. This feature makes it a quality product.

Longevity

It is a smudge proof & water proof eye pencil as I have observed. It needs bit time to settle on my water line & then it stays intact for 5-6 hours, after which it starts loosing it’s intensity. On my lash line, it stays good for about 7-8 hours, as I have tested in the Delhi heat. That is commendable. To get rid of the color, I massage with baby oil around my eyes.

Finish

This is a bright shade & has a bit of shimmer which gives a vibrant finish. The shade really pops out eyes. It can also be doubled up as an eye shadow, as I was told by the SA. I have tried the same, & it definitely is doable.

Dislikes

  • Price is definitely on higher side if you buy it from some offline store. But it is available online on discount.
  • Needs to be sharpened very frequently since to maintain it’s tip. I find sharpening very cumbersome.

Summary : 4.5/5

Faces Long Wear Eye Pencil in Teal works as a kajal, liner & eye shadow. It is a bright & refreshing shade. The eye pencil is long wearing since it is smudge proof & water proof. The color pay off is also very good. Only the price is bit high & it needs to be sharpened frequently. Still, would love to try out more shades from the range.
