Ah, flexibility… It’s good,21 Ways to Store Your Makeup, no? GREAT, in fact, especially when you’re battling Channing Tatum on the dance floor, wrangling friends into last-minute dinner plans or, say, applying liquid eyeliner.
Honestly, without the flexible tip at the end of my far-and-away favorite LORAC Front of the Line Pro,Coach Factory Coupon, my liquid liner cat eye looks would look like a hot mess. That flexible tip makes drawing straight,How to Look Your BEST in Pictures, crisp lines much easier for me and my sometimes shaky hand.
But because I suffer from chronic makeup madness (I believe that’s the clinical term),Cheap NFL Jerseys, I’m predisposed to seek out other options…
You know how it goes. 
Which brings me to the four new colors in the NARS Eyeliner Stylo line ($27 each).
Even though their tips are a little too firm for me (ruh-roh!), I wanted to test them with an open mind.
The four new shades — black Carpates, brown Nuku Hiva, navy Atlantic and grey Koala — are en route to narscosmetics.com, ETA August 1 (not sure if they’re also going to be available in stores).

Pigment? Check. Intensity? Check?
All four of these have both in spades, and I really wanted to love them, but for the life of me, I just can’t seem to make ‘em work.
It’s that firm tip,Cheap Jerseys,Coach Handbags! Sometimes it skips along my skin, doopdadoo, laying down pigment unevenly, and I spent a good 20 minutes today trying to coax a decent cat liner look out of it this afternoon.
I will say this about it, though — it knows a thing or two about wear time. NARS says Eyeliner Stylo will last 24 hours, and I believe it. Once set, it doesn’t smear, smudge or flake, and when it comes time to remove, I have to pull out the big guns, aka MAC Cleanse Off Oil.
I give Eyeliner Stylo big snaps for color and wear time, but the firm tip makes it a little tricky to apply (at least for me).

I came across a blog post today that I really liked: 7 Viral Videos to Get You Motivated.
Some of the videos took my breath away, like this one about French highliners practicing their extreme sport between high-rise buildings in Paris…
