Wink wink!

Hey guys!

Today I'm going to talk about one of my favourite pieces of makeup that I own!
Have you heard of Tsubasa Masuwaka?


She is a Gyaru (Japanese Gal Style) Model, singer and Beauty enthusiast. She owns a line of Makeup called 'Candy Doll' as well as a line that focuses on lashes called 'Dolly Wink by Koji'. I love everything about her! Her style, the fact that she is a mother~

For those of you who don't know, Gyaru fashion is probably my favourite. however, I just can't seem to pull it off, so I sort of just admire it! The amount of Japanese magazines I own is crazy ><

The product I will be reviewing today is Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner.


The first thing that captures everyones attention is the cute packaging! I'm a sucker for anything cute, so I knew I had to have it.


This is the tip of the eyeliner. It is slightly flexibly at the tip, enough so that it can be applied smoothly. 


Using the liner you can control the thickness, because the fine tip allows for precision!  I find that it goes on very easily, and once you get used to controlling it, application is a breeze! It is waterproof so it stays on almost all day. Also, it dries very fast, which is good if you have hooded eyelids, since there is no smudging!


This picture was taken a few minutes after, and you can see it barely came off even after I rubbed it so hard. You can see maybe that it is actually slightly red on my skin because of the rubbing!

There is only one negative I have about this product: The price! In Japan the Eyeliner retails for about 1,300 yen, which is around $15, but when you take into account shipping to Australia the price can really add up.. so I suggest looking around to buy online. If you don't mind paying more though, many small shops in China Town sell these all around Australia.

So when I was in Japan last year I made the most of buying some of the products! I bought some eyeliners, mascaras and fake eyelashes!



Have you guys ever heard of Dolly Wink??? What do you think so far from this review?

    1. You can buy them at a lot of the asian boutiques in the city, it's around $30 depending on where you go. I tend to have a lot of trouble finding the liquid one, the pencil liner seems to be more available here but if you look around you'll eventually find it! :P
