Through Thick and Thin: Yanqina Liquid Eyeliner Review

Hello lovely people! :D Today's review is of a product that's really blown me away! I've never used a liner in pen form. *shoots self* I always go with the old school brush types, gel or felt tip ones. So when Lee Lee from UNIQSO sent me the Yanqina liquid liner to try, I was very curious!
The Yanqina liquid liner is a product of Japan (so you KNOW it's good!) It costs $5.90 on UNIQSO!
Oh yes, thanks UNIQSO for sending this to me along with the lenses I reviewed on Friday.


Price: 
$5.90 (Rs. 318) for 2.5g. That's a good price I think! ^_^ Much cheaper than store brands! 

Packaging:
I didn't get any outer box with the pen, the pen is a pretty black and red with cute graphics and a bit of Engrish on it. Lol! Nice and light, easy to carry in the bag and the lid fits snug, so no chance of accidents! The nib is perfect for thick or thin lines! :D 

Damn focus! Nib! :)

36H? Hours? I don't think so. >.> Why would you want something to last that long anyway?!


Engrish! Lol! Waterproof Lash Eyeliner Pencil... I don't even..
Colour: 
The colour is nice and deep! One swipe gets you almost opaque colour and I love that it has a almost shiny finish. Not quite matte, not quite shiny. Perfect! Swipe it twice and you have a great solid black!

Lasting Power:
This stuff lasts for ages even on my oily lids, although after a day of wearing it, it faded a bit but quite evenly! And absolutely no transfer on my lids. It is waterproof but not if you rub it after washing. :/ Just pat dry if you want it to last! Don't rub!

Swatches:
You can see how much thin/ thick control you get with this liner!

Overall:
Yanqina is an amazing liner! I would buy it again, if not for me, for my sister! She managed to use this with ease for someone who is just awkward with makeup, that is amazing! I only wish that it was a tad more long lasting but overall it does a great job! Awesome for detailed work and beginners. ^_^
