Finally got all the supplies and made your eyeliner. I have 3 granddaughters (who normally don’t wear makeup) test it last night : Excellent glide, perfect on the first try Dried in good time Came off easily More importantly, the girls had a lot of fun. Worth mentioning is that even though I’d purchased the brushes you mentioned, I grabbed the “sample size that I had so that everyone had their own to test with. Got them off Amazon and they were inexpensive and came inappropriately 100 pack. They worked perfectly. Now I’m able to give out several applicators and they can change out as needed. Want to thank you so much bc not only was this a success but it connects me to my granddaughters and it was so much fun. Next project is diy deodorant ☺️
Wowzer! This is amazing!! Perfection in application and I can't wait to delve into this, Marie! I've never been a fan of creamy eye shadow because it just ended up sitting in the creases of my eyelid. Yours looks fab! Maybe it's the primer?? I'll have to check this out!
I hope you love it! Primer is a MUST for me for all eye makeup-even expensive eyeliners and eyeshadows will transfer and crease on my lids. That said, I have found there is a huge spectrum of quality/wear time for cream eyeshadows and some straight up stink, even with primer. For me, anything with water as a first ingredient usually won't work well :(
when i saw the 12 hour check in i audibly went “wow!” i love eyeliner but i have the classic problem of it never staying put because of my eye shape. this eyeliner is now on my list of formulations to try! thank you for creating this! :)
Hi!! if this formula have the same of similar chemicals components than a expensive store bought I wonder if there is a chance to make a “natural version of”…. Sadly all liners and mascaras (and i have expensive ones) yeah they stay on place 24 hrs!! but by end of day my eyes end-up all red and irritated
I don't even wear makeup much anymore (still masking during my 12 hour shifts 3 days a week) and I want to make this right now! I just placed a large (for me) order with TKB last night and I want to add the ingredients to make this and the cream eyeshadow to another order! How fun!
I have hooded lids that would be laying on top of that eyeliner at times, depending on my facial expressions. Do you feel this liner could be described as suitable for those with hooded lids?
It should be, yes! I had an opportunity to test an earlier version on my mom, who has more hooded/droopy eyes than I do and it wore very well for her ❤️ My eyes are also hooded enough that eyeliner will absolutely transfer up into my socket line if it wants to, and this one doesn't!
Maria thank you so much fir sharing. You have inspired me & now I have my business. I’m getting ready to prep for market. I love learning & expanding my business to bring love & sparkles ✨
Hi! Thank you for buying my book :) I'm not sure I understand what you are asking. There are many different ways to formulate all sorts of products, including eyeliner. The book uses different strategies and ingredients than this formulation does. This video and formulation was never meant to parallel/demonstrate any of the formulations from the book. This is partly because I don't want to give away the content in my book for free, and partly because this formulation is much newer than my book (2021 vs. 2016). Does that explain it?
It should be, the ingredients are very similar to many waterline safe eyeliners on the market :) You may want to pre-grind the pigments before incorporation, though, to ensure they are as fine as possible to reduce irritation potential. Happy making!
Not really :( Any black mica you use will be coloured with black oxide anyways, and in order to get enough pigment you'd need to use ~4-5x as much, which would really throw off the entire formulation.
Marie.. I am a ceramicist. Applying with any brush. Use pinky to anchor your hand. My hands shake bad. I had to learn. Do not hold brush tight. Anchor my hand. I now enjoy my lotions. Each new formulation.. I think.. OMG.. Silky. Then hit me wait til 3rd application.. I love your ideas. But TKB I do not understand contents and i wanna kiss. (Keep it simple stuipd) give lived nurses life. I now want a kiss life. Happy new year to you n family
These materials are used in mny commercial products like the bobby brown brand liner Marie mentioned and they are man made. So not found in nature directly. I cannot talk about the non toxic part. You can check the each material to see if they are irritating or bad for sensitive skin 🌺
Hi! Just found your channel. This looks incrediblr! Thank you for sharing your knowledge :) One question though: this is Iron Oxide, so it should be magnetic, no? I am asking, because it would be perfect if this could be used with magnetic false lashes. Thank you and have a nice day :)
Just ordered your first book off Amazon. So excited. Checked out supplies for this project at TKB and they have everything needed in your recipe. Also excited about that. Will your mascara recipe be in your book? And, thank you for all you do for others. Much appreciated.
Wow, looks fantastic!! Im gonna have to add this to my list of bear-future formulations. I dont wear eyeliner often, but when i do, i dont mess around. I want it perfect, and to last all day. Oh, question! Is it waterproof?
You'd likely have to completely re-formulate, I'm afraid. The general gist is "more liquid less solid", but that will inevitably alter the wear time and application.
I think it's probably too thick for a bottle with a narrow mouth, but one of my patrons reported good results packaging it in a jar like this: amzn.to/3GgmxRu. Happy making!
Marie, you really are just so talented and I'm always so impressed with how you just casually make makeup and body products! Can I ask you about the eyeliner you made today? How do you think it would last with oily skin? I'm not sure what skin type you have, but I have particularly oily skin and lots of eyeliner just slips right off my face into nothingness lol also I wanted to make sure to thank you for your hard work and free content. You inspire me to learn more about cosmetics and body products with each video I watch!
Hi! I think I have pretty dang oily eyelids-eye primer is a MUST for everything if I don't want it to crease + transfer, even for commercially available stuff that says you don't need primer. Thanks for watching & happy making!
Thanks for watching! Check out my newest video-it's more snappy :) And I hope you enjoy the formulation I spent months developing and shared for free :)
