Chanel Stylo Yeux Waterproof Eyeliner


A lot of other bloggers write about their "Holy Grail" products, the makeup item they couldn't live without. Since it has been so horribly hot here in the Northeast, I thought this is a great time to write about my must have product.

My favorite makeup item that I love and use EVERYDAY is the Chanel Stylo Yeux Waterproof Eyeliner is Espresso. I love this eyeliner for its beautiful dark rich color. It is not as harsh as black can sometimes be, yet provides deep dark color that makes my eyes pop. It is exactly the color of a coffee bean (another Holy Grail thing I can not live without...LOL!). The best thing about it is that it's waterproof and lasts ALL DAY! It goes on smooth, no tugging on the eyelid. Stylo also has a built in sharpener on bottom that pulls off so you don't have to go looking for a sharpener!

About a year ago I could not find this eyeliner and was told by a few Chanel SA's that it was discountinued! I was devasted! For three months I had to use other liner brands, Lancome, Bobbie Brown, MAC. None compared to my faithful Chanel Stylo Yeux Espresso! They were not the right shade and did not last the full day. Then after three long months a Chanel SA called and said she received three pieces and had put two aside for ME! It was not going to be discontinued after all! I was so happy but learned my lesson, always by an extra!

There is NOTHING that compares to this eyeliner. It is the perfect color with excellent staying power especially during these hot humid days!
