Encapsulated in a 1.5mm mechanical pencil, Hourglass Mechanical Gel Liner offers precision accuracy and ease of application. No pot, no brush, no clean-up required. Just two clicks and one stroke creates dramatic definition that resists transfer for extended wear. The unique formula, poured into a slim mechanical component, has the malleability, intensity and staying power of a traditional gel liner. The waterproof, transfer-proof and long-lasting formula delivers extended wear. The precision 1.5mm tip ensures effortless control, and allows for tightlining in between lashes. Two clicks is all you need to line the eye. Each advanced mechanical pencil lasts for approximately 17 to 20 uses. Ophthalmologist tested. Hourglass developed this formula to prime skin and create the perfect canvas for the Ambient Lighting Collection. The first-of-its-kind formula was developed to create the thinnest layer of light-enhancing particles, which allows for layering without re-emulsifying the layer underneath. This results in the most weightless lighting effect on the skin. This breakthrough primer creates the ideal base for light diffusion and refraction while also prepping the skin for makeup application. Carisa's Take: “This primer is a multi-tasker. I wear it alone on days where I just need a little something to walk out the door, and under foundation on other days when I want to really perfect my lighting. The texture is so different than anything else on the market - it feels like I have nothing on, but it does so much.” Available in a package of 3 or as a single liner. Hourglass is a cruelty-free brand; they do not test any of their products on animals.
