MAC Penultimate Eye Liner
VS
Collection Extreme 24 Hr Felt Tip Liner
I am really enjoying doing these posts and I hope you all enjoy them too! I really feel like I get to give you a great insight to how products compare to one another and help you all make good makeup decisions!
Pros:
- Comfortable shape
- Really pigmented
- Good control (nib isn't too soft and isn't too hard)
- Super affordable
- Lasts a long time (this might be different on oily skin)
Cons:
- Not Waterproof
Yeahh So basically I love this product, I got it on a whim though because I wanted to try a drugstore liner, well just because and it ended up being a product that I really love!
MAC Penultimate Eye Liner
Pros:
-Comfortable shape
Cons:
- Nib is far too soft
- Pigment isn't amazing
- It's difficult to get the colour out
- Smudges
I don't know if I just got a faulty one of these because I would have had high hopes that MAC would have a super high quality liquid liner but it is really awkward to use because the nib is too soft and you have to press quite hard just to get a decent black out of it.
The Collection has a longer nib and is a lot stiffer than the MAC one.
The Collection liner also manages to get a finer controlled line and well a chunky lines.
The 2 left lines are MAC and I have tried to show a fine line and a thick line and I managed to get the colour out on the thick one but the line was messed up from pressing s hard and the fine line was a really rubbish pigment.
The 2 right lines are Collection and you get the same pigment in thick and fine. It glides on so smoothly and just looks flawless.
It won't come a surprise then if I say that the Collection 24Hr Extreme Liner is miles above in quality than the MAC liner. Especially considering the price differences as MAC is £17.00 and Collection is £2.99 it is a serious bargain! Try the MAC one if you are dead set on it but read the reviews on their website, suffice to say I cannot recommend the Collection liner more!
Let me know what eyeliners you are loving and what are your opinions on these liners if you have tried them.

I'm still on the hunt for my HG felt tip eyeliner, and I have found its often not worth the money to pay more. I am loving Bourjois one that the moment though!

I honestly wouldn't bother with the MAC one, thankfully I got it as a present so I'm not too distraught that I didn't like it :) x
