Waterproof!: GOSH Extreme Art Eye Liner

You want waterproof? You’ll get more waterproof than you can handle with GOSH Extreme Art liquid eye liner ($16) — in a good way — especially in icky, makeup-melty summertime humidity.

I’ve heard tales of this stuff staying on for days. In fact, I heard exactly that kind of story from a friend of mine, a savvy beauty editor at another of my favourite Canadian beauty magazines (I won’t use her name because I haven’t asked permission to tell!). She wore the liquid liner on a beach in Mexico a little while ago and loved its stay-put sass. But she’d forgotten her takes-off-the-waterproof makeup remover in Toronto; by the third day, in desperation, she resorted to using Vaseline as remover because she was tired of hiding behind her sunglasses. (Hey, just because it stays put for days doesn’t mean it looks good past day one.)

GOSH cosmetics are available in Canada at Shoppers Drug Mart and in the US at goshamericas.com

That’s because they look like thin bottles of cool-coloured nail polish!

Brilliant for a summer beach vacation, actually! A swipe or line of fun colour like green or purple lets you skip the eyeshadow fuss and get to the fun without fear of smears or smudges! Better get Nadia her own, though. You don’t want her stealing yours!

You know she will! I’ll have to get her one in every colour.

They’re not really expensive, but one in every colour will do damage! There are about four more in the collection — I had to crop out the blues so the image would fit the way I wanted!

Get a purple one, Tania — it’ll look great with your eye colour.

Um, do you think I can wear the purple one, or will it look like crap? So pretty and, apparently, so allergy resistant. If not the purple, which one do you currently have in stock? Not black – don’t want black & can’t do orange.

Advise when you have a moment.

Many thanks,

You Look Hot Today.

YOU want to try LIQUID LINER? How long’s it been?? I have a green and a purple. Next time I see you, I’ll bust ‘em out.

What? Sometimes I draw on my face, you know.

And I want to try a DISTINCTLY WATERPROOF liquid liner. You put the em-PHAS-is on the wrong words.

purplepurplepurple!! Wheee!!!

(ps. Me no like that green tube-o-mascara you done gave me last time I seen ya. Not good for people who are lash challenged but I’ll betcha it’s good for those who aren’t.)

Really about the green mascara tube? It’s one of my faves! Hmmmm. Must revisit.

Emily 26 January 2010 at 5:22 pm

I have this product in black. Yes it is water proof also make remover proof and face wash proof! If you make a mistake well your kinda stuck!
If you know how to get it off please be free to share!!

You need remover specifically designed to remove waterproof makeup, Emily. A formula with oil will do the trick: Lancôme Bi-Facil makeup remover is one you could try, or any other makeup remover that looks like it’s half oil/half water in the bottle.

You have a point about being stuck if you make a mistake. It’s a pain to have to start all over again. Possible, but annoying!

Okay. It was on sale so I bought one. And then I bought another one.

I think I’m in the loves with the Gosh Extreme Art Eyeliner.

Pretty sure it makes me look hot today. In a good way.
