It’s only a matter of time before Ryan and Eva call and ask me to babysit this “alleged” fruit of their loins, and when they do (Guys, seriously, call me. Ryan, I mean you. Please call me.), I could show up dressed like a responsible citizen, perhaps wearing one of these Milani Constellation Gel Eye Liners ($6.99 each and available in three shades) in a thin, tasteful cat eye with a dainty flick at the end…but why would I do that?
I don’t want to look responsible… I want to strike fear into Eva’s heart! Girlfriend needs to know that we, as in all of womankind, are on to her.
Gurl, we know that baby isn’t his! Stop playin’ already. 🙂
But seriously, word on the street is that these limited edition liners are flying off the shelves at CVS and Walgreens stores (I haven’t seen them on the Milani website), and I can see why. They exude personality. Technically gel eyeliners, they have a glittery overspray on top, and they sure are eye-catching, aren’t they?
So sparkly! Like gazing at a newly formed galaxy…but, like, in a pot.
When you get through the overspray, you’re greeted by complex, interesting colors. Take the Enchanted Emerald shade, which from some angles looks like a deep, glossy black, and from others, a peacock blue with an undercurrent of tropical teal…
Super pretty!
I’m into all three of these, but not just because of their dynamic colors. I also like the creamy, almost wet texture and the astronomically shiny finish. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quite like it before.
The liners never quite dry down all the way, so if I want to, I can smudge and blend them to my heart’s content. If you want messy, lived-in, rock ‘n’ roll lids — something probably too glossy and creased to wear to a straight-laced 9-to-5 — these are your go-to gals. You can smear, smudge and buff these liners all over your lids, and watch them as they move and change throughout the day.
I know it’s not everyone’s look, but if it’s yours, hello! Right here. 🙂
These are also great if you want to look like the world’s most questionable babysitter who shows up on your doorstep in the morning and you’re like, “Were you at the End Up all night, and did you just put that makeup on your lids in the bathroom at Denny’s before coming over here? I can smell the tequila coming out of your pores, by the way.”
PRICE: $6.99 each
AVAILABILITY: Available now at CVS and Walgreens stores

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
Oh wow! I’m not usually into anything other than neutrals, but DAMN these look so bad ass. And just different. I don’t know why but I’m loving these.
Hi Amanda! Yeah, they’re kinda funky. You can wear them in a more wearable way, of course. 🙂 I hope that you had a nice Friday! What are your plans for the weekend? Doing anything fun?
These are gorgeous! I wish Milani was more accessible in other parts of the world!
LOL @ “I can smell the tequila coming out of your pores, by the way.” Um, the proper way to party all night and go straight to work in the morning is to drink vodka.
Cough. Allegedly.
That aside: these look gorgeous! Please please please Milani, ship some to Honolulu…we hardly ever get the limited ed Milani stuff, and if we do, I only find it after visiting five Walgreens, eight Longs (CVS), three Walmarts and two targets at least three times each over the course of a month. Very tiring.
Have you found them yet? I got them at Longs in town here in Kona a few days ago, so I’m really surprised you guys didn’t already have them
Nice look! I’m doing to check these out if I can find them.
DAMN those swatches!!!
I bought the emerald one. Gorgeous color but man this stuff does not stay put ;( Two hours later my cat eye was in my crease.
Fabulous! I love Black Opal and I love your rockstar look. The only problem is that my CVS will probably never get them, it’s the worst CVS ever!
Don’t like the creasing and unevenness you got going on there 🙁 But the color do look really awesome.
It doesn’t crease if you use it as a straight up gel liner. I packed it in and made it super glossy because I was going for a messy, glossy, grungy look. But if it’s used as a liner it looks more respectable, lol.
I like the messy rock chic look but I like that they work as liners too.
I hope I can find these!! Love the look! Thanks for the great swatches 🙂
Stunning. I must have.
The colours are beautiful, especially Lapis. I’m not sure if I could dent that beautiful galatic overspray though, LOL! At least these are in a price range where you could technically get two – one to use and one to stare at, LOL!… if we had Milani here, that is… *sob*
Oooo they’re even pretty swatched! I had the hardest time finding a stocked display but I went crazy when I did lol. I picked up all of the liners and lipsticks. They just look so beautiful! Once I stop drooling over them I’ll start playing in them lol
Oh, that made me laugh quite hardily! I know you’re totally not buying what Eva is selling. HAHA!
Those gel liners are stunning in the pan and brought on a “galaxy is on Orion’s Belt” moment. Not my style but I can see how hipper gals than me would rock it.
LOL, love your posts! These are so pretty and mesmerizing!
They sound like the definition of a hot greasy mess. I’ll pass, but they were pretty.
I picked up the Emerald shade the other day & as soon as I got home I ripped the packaging & proceeded to apply this to my eyelids, the color is beautiful and the consistency creamy but Sadly, they smudge Super easily! I have a slight hooded lid and within 10 mins I had this eyeliner up on my browbone :*( However…the lippies in this same collection are wonderful!
