FENTY BEAUTY FLYLINER LONGWEAR LIQUID EYELINER
They say: A liquid eyeliner formula that’s water resistant and provides a “hyper-saturated” satin finish.
The flex tip and triangular shape of the pen allows for easy wielding and precision application.
We say: Our testers tried these eyeliners and were impressed with the formula. The inky eyeliner glides on smooth and doesn’t skip. While the super-tapered tip provided a fine line, it took a few extra passes to yield something a bit thicker, requiring a steady hand to get just right. The formula dried fast and wore very well throughout the day. $29 | Sephora.com
SKINCEUTICALS GLYCOLIC BRIGHTENING RENEW OVERNIGHT
They say: An overnight skin product featuring an “optimized level of glycolic acid” — a four-per-cent glycolic free acid value
— along with phytic acid and a skin-soothing complex to improve texture, glow and radiance.
We say: Our tester incorporated this product into her regular skin care routine, subbing it out for her go-to nighttime product every other night at first, as suggested on the product packaging. Unlike some acid products, this one didn’t leave skin feeling ... uncomfortable. Instead, skin looked subtly resurfaced and more “clear.” $110 | Beautysense.ca
PHYSICIANS FORMULA ORGANIC WEAR DEWY HIGHLIGHTER
They say: An “ultra-blendable” and “buildable” creamto-powder highlighter stick that features organic jojoba oil, natural Indian senna seed, organic aloe vera and botanical cactus flower to hydrate skin while providing a “naturally brightened” glow.
We say: This makeup stick is easy to use and provides nice payoff. A few sweeps across skin, blended in with fingertips or a brush, provided a soft glow that wasn’t too makeup-y or bright. $16.49 | beauty.shoppersdrugmart.ca
