When I got this in the mail I looked at it and sighed thinking it looked like a gimmick, why on earth would a bent pen be any use? Just weird..
Well, I cracked it out of the pack and raised it to my eyelid. The result was an 'uh huh' moment. I could see where I was applying the line, I could see my eye lid, I could SEE past my chubby clumsy hand and no longer had to guess and check and reapply. This product is revolutionary, such a simple change in design with such dramatic results. Not only could I see whilst applying it but I could get much tidier and closer lines than I was ever able to 'guess' before.
Really easy to use, lightweight and the pen nib is more of a soft nib like a brush, the ink is a good consistency and opaque.. The shape of the pen is what stands this product apart from the rest. Other than the shape the other attributes are no different than normal.
The shape is a game changer!
I would definitely recommend.
This product has changed my life!
I'm not an expert with liquid liner - it's always taken me a few goes to achieve a sleek, straight line. And then I was lucky enough to trial this pen and I realised that the reason I hadn't been able to do that sleek, straight line on the first go, was because ALL OTHER LIQUID LINERS SUCK.
Seriously, the Curvitude is pretty damn cool. It's angled, which makes it easier to get close to the lash line. The brush is super-fine at the end, so you can get between lashes. And it's a pen, so there's no brush dip in bottle, crap, it's dried already, re-dip, now it's gone clumpy, re-dip, too much on the brush, re-dip, FML. And of course, if you can forge your Mum's signature with a regular pen, you can easily do a perfect wing with this one.
What else? It's a true black, very densely pigmented. It's hardwearing - no slippage or smearing - once that sucker's on, IT'S ON. It's perfect for funerals and break-ups (ie waterproof), and it comes off pretty easily with a cleansing wipe. The price is pretty good too.
I like this product very much. You might too. *winks perfectly winged eyelid*
Tips: The brush tip is quite thin so you need to angle it to get a thicker line on the outer corner.
