With the weather being so crazily hot this month, all we need on our face is some smudge-proof and waterproof make up.

Here we are, putting Make Up For Ever – AQUA XL Eye Pencil to test. It comes in 20 shades and adds a playful aspect to women’s daily beauty routines, allowing for a myriad of bold creations and subtle looks.
The collection includes a variety finishes, including matte, satiny, metallic, iridescent and diamond, and hues from the most intense shade of black to the purest of whites. The formula boasts emollient oils and mango butter which helps to enhance the application to a smooth and silky breeze.
You will be surprised to know that the colours are very vibrant in reality and with just a single stroke; you will be able to see an intense shade on your eyes.
A stroke of AQUA XL was added in addition to the black eyeliner to give a playful touch.
Now, let’s up the colours to test. Not only did we try rubbing it away without water, we also poured water over it and gave them a thorough rub. The colours remained vibrant and strong. However, when we removed it with Make Up For Ever SENS’EYES – Waterproof Sensitive Eye Cleanser, it was easily removed within a single wipe.
5 stars for being waterproof!
