Hello, gorgeous!
One of my new years resolutions of 2k14 is to be more active and post more on my blog so, here it is! The very first of two-thousand fourteen. Gosh, that number just makes me so excited!
Anyways enough about the date, today's post will be my very first Product Smackdown, a new segment to my blog comparing two products(high-end vs. drugstore mostly) and seeing which one takes the cake and whether or not the price tag on high-end products are truly worth the price!
The very first Product Smackdown post will be revolving around two of my favorite eyeliners that are on the opposite side of the spectrum. One of them is the Lancome Liner Plume in 01 Noir(high end) and the other being the Maybelline Master Precise liquid eyeliner in Noir - Black.

| Top - Maybelline. Bottom - Lancome. |
As you can see in the picture above, the Lancome is much more pigmented than the Maybelline.
LANCOME Liner Plume:
 |
Pigmentation: VERY BLACK.
Longevity: Lasts til the end of the day, without smudging or smearing.
Application: Easy. Foam-tip applicator.
Amount: 1 ml.
Website description: A precise tip for build able lining.
Downfall: Price.
Will I repurchase: Definitely.
Rate: 9.5/10(the only downfall is the price).
MAYBELLINE MASTER PRECISE:
Price: Around 2.5 - 3.5 BD - 7.99 Dollars - 5 Pounds
Pigmentation: Black, impressive for a drugstore product but fairly sheer
Longevity: Around 8 hours.
Application: Easy. Foam-tip applicator, as well but the tip wears off after a while.
Amount: 0.4 mm.
Website description: Exclusive felt tip. Never dries. Never skips.
Ultra-thin 0.4mm brush supplies smooth, even lines.
No mess or excess.
Downfall: Just slightly touching the liner will get it on your finger so it doesn't set very well. It's halfway faded by the time I'm home from school.Will I repurchase: Yes. It's a great everyday eyeliner that your wallet will thank you for. ;)
Rate: 8/10.
In my opinion, the Lancome eyeliner won today's round! But that doesn't mean that the Maybelline is a horrible eyeliner that you shouldn't buy. It's great for everyday usage and I'll admit, I use it almost on a daily basis but the Lancome eyeliner is definitely better quality and I haven't noticed the difference between the two up until this post.
Will you be buying one of these eyeliners?! Should I keep doing 'product smackdowns'? What two products do you want me to compare next?! Tell me below or on my ask.fm page!
