Today’s review is going to be the Tarte Clay Pot Black Waterproof Shadow Liner. I ordered this off the Tarte website along with a couple more stuffs I got from them. This is one brand I truly enjoy and I haven’t had any product that miserably failed on me so far. So how did the Tarte Clay Pot Black Waterproof Shadow Liner fare out for me?

What The Company Claims?

A clay pot waterproof eyeliner with 12-hour wear.
This one-of-a-kind, waterproof, creamy liner takes the intimidation out of pigmentation with a no-tug application so you can easily line and define. It has fewer waxes and a cushion slide technology to allow for the creamiest texture and smoothest application in a portable, squeezable tube with a flat blending design to easily pick up and apply your perfect amount of eyeliner. Just use a liner brush (sold separately) to glide the 12-hour wear, Amazonian clay-powered formula across the lash line for dramatic, artistry looks. This product is formulated with tarte 12-hour power™, waterproof, ophthalmologist and dermatologist tested, vegan, and is safe for contact lens wearers. It is formulated without Parabens and Phthalates.

How Did Tarte Clay Pot Black Waterproof Shadow Liner Work For Me?

The Tarte Clay Pot Black Waterproof Shadow Liner comes in a transparent glass packaging with gold lid which feels absolutely luxurious. The packaging is very sturdy, travel friendly and range comes in different shades and finishes. I have Black shade which is actually matte black and I got this mainly for lining my upper lash line. Right off the bat I could tell the liner was a little too creamy and mushy for a gel liner. Upon swatching it on the back of my arm I found the pigmentation to be really poor. I was utterly disappointed to see a $21 gel liner to be this big of a fail. The liner was really translucent and oily and difficult to build up as it dries too quickly.

The Tarte Clay Pot Black Waterproof Shadow Liner is free of parabens, phthalates and is vegan. It is long wearing, waterproof and is also crease proof. I absolutely hate this as a gel liner but like it as a base when I’m doing dark smoky eyes. Overall, the Tarte Clay Pot Black Waterproof Shadow Liner is something that I feel isn’t worth the splurge as there are so many drugstore gel liners that are great dupes like the Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner, L’Oreal Paris Super Liner Gel Intenza 36H – Profound Black.
