Without eyeshadow primer, the eyeliner started transferring onto my eyelid after three hours. Wear time as as eyeliner was good if I wore a primer first. On the waterline, I got about four hours of good wear (it started disintegrating after that). It is smudgeproof about 30 seconds after application, it does dry smoothly and quickly. I would work a little quickly to blend the color out if you were planning on using it as an eyeshadow or eyeshadow base. I do think that Solomon Islands specifically is a firmer gel liner, it's not as squishy/soft as other brands but it's still very creamy.ĭue to the firmer texture, I don't have to be as cautious when applying it like I am with other squishy/softer gel liners (which have a tendency to transfer onto my eyelid if I'm not careful) because it sets faster. Solomon Islands dries down to a flat matte finish. It's incredibly pigmented and can be worn as an eyeshadow, eyeshadow base, and eyeliner. The eyeliner is described as having "multi-use application, 18-hour wear, highly-saturated, with a weightless gel texture that dries smoothly and quickly" It's still a beautiful bright blue though! Keep in mind that due to the matte finish, the eyeliner actually dries a shade or two darker than what's in the pot. Packaging: The Eye Paint comes in a glass pot with a plastic lid.ĭescribed as a turquoise blue, it's bright enough to wear on its own as a pop of color.

I'm not even sure when I'll wear this out but it was too beautiful to resist. I didn't intend to get it when I went in but I'd been eyeing the color for ages because it reminds me of a long discontinued MAC Fluidline in Blue Peep so I had to have it. I stash gift cards for these purposes and had a $25 giftcard I decided to splurge with and got myself this NARS Eye Paint in Solomon Islands. Recently, Sephora has a special deal where rewards members could get 15% off their purchases.
