But in Aqua Liner’s defense, there was copious amounts of sobbing, eye rubbing and fist shaking at the sky at Tara’s death. Two hours later, Aqua Liner was still hanging in strong.Ī few days later I tested both colors against a Buffy marathon, but after six hours there was some peeling and wear. Next, in order to test Aqua Liner against my waterworks, I applied and watched an episode each of my worst crying culprits Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice. But this is science, remember? Applied to clean skin right before bed, Aqua Liner pulled through, with only a little wear at my inner corners.Īs for removal of this liner – it is super easy the liner balls up and peels off in pieces rather than dissolving, similar to Blinc eyeliner.Ī quick jump in the shower and my Aqua Liner was still there!
