COVERGIRL The Super Sizer Mascara & Intensify Me Liquid Liner Swatches and Review

This summer COVERGIRL added two more products to their LASHBLAST makeup line: The Super Sizer Mascara with its uniquely shaped wand & Intensify Me Liquid Liner with an intriguing paddle felt tip. I got to try both of them a couple months ago but it took me a while to summarize my thoughts, especially since there is a learning curve to using both of these.

Read more: glamorable.com | via @glamorableCOVERGIRL The Super Sizer Mascara is designed to give your lashes lots of volume thanks to what the brand calls a “lash styler” – a plastic wand shaped to deposit a lot of product, at once, so the mascara hits the lashes before the wand does. Lash styler design features longer bristles alternating with small bristles, and they’re all placed in groups to give the lashes the most dramatic look.

Read more: glamorable.com | via @glamorableIt’s recommended to curl the wand updard and toward yourself when using The Super Sizer Mascara – I totally ignored this info when I first tried it in action. After all, applying mascara is not rocket science… or is it? Go figure, I hated the way my lashes came out, and I couldn’t understand what in the world I was doing wrong. Instead of curling the wand, I just did the usual strokes, which resulted in clumpy lashes and lots of smudged mascara. When I finally learned the trick, I completely fell in love with this one and it’s currently in my daily makeup rotation. If you’re doing everything correctly, the lashes will come out curled, defined, with lots of volume and product at the base that creates the effect of tightlining: bigger, more awake-looking eyes.

COVERGIRL The Super Sizer Mascara comes in three colors: Black Brown, Black, and Very Black.

I was very lucky that my eyes are shaped in a way that they don’t really need eyeliner to look defined so I rarely use it, but a dramatic wing is a whole different story.

Read more: glamorable.com | via @glamorableThe liner comes with a standard felt tip, but it doesn’t have that usual pointy shape – it’s a dual-sided paddle! The idea behind it is to give the user the ability to quickly draw both thin and thick lines, depending on which side of the tip they choose to use. I had a pretty bad learning curve with this one, to be honest. I’m not that great at applying eyeliner to begin with, and this one was particularly challenging. No matter what I did, my wings were not all neat and pointy like I wanted them to be. And even after all this time I’m still struggling.

I thought this would be useful to know, since all screens show colors differently, and I also don’t have a studio setup with consistent lighting. Hope that helps!

In the end, I concluded that Intensify Me Liquid Liner is probably best suited for those who prefer bold eyeliner looks [like a dramatic cat eye or wings for miles], because while it can definitely draw a thin line for everyday wear with some effort, a pointy felt tip will do a much better job and a lot quicker, too. I personally don’t reach for it often [read: never].

COVERGIRL Intensify Me Liquid Liner comes in just one shade – Intense Black.

    Now that my eyes aren’t so allergy ridden I can wear both of these and they perform a lot better than they did back in the spring!

    • September 21, 2015 / 11:35 am

      Glad to hear that! Which one do you like better: the eyeliner or the mascara?

  2. September 7, 2015 / 5:25 pm

    I’m loving the look of that paddle-tip eyeliner and need it in my life! I have difficulties with wings and bold lines so it sounds awesome!

    • September 21, 2015 / 11:35 am

      Me too, I am terrible at creating the perfect cat eye! This liner is great for bold dramatic wings, but I still prefer a more traditional thin tip for thin lines.

  3. September 7, 2015 / 7:42 pm

    I love the eyeliner but the mascara didn’t do a thing for me.

    • September 21, 2015 / 11:33 am

      Bummer about that! Im actually loving the mascara, but the liner just wasn’t my thing.

  4. September 7, 2015 / 8:04 pm

    I like the eyeliner and after using the mascara a while, I really enjoy it. It took me a while to figure out that I don’t need to do as the directions said for the mascara… it didn’t work that way fo rme. So I used it as I would any other and it gives my lashes nice length and curl.

    • September 21, 2015 / 11:31 am

      Funny, isn’t it, how one product works so differently for everyone? I could not for the life of me make it work like I normally apply mascara, but when following the directions I got just the result I wanted.

    I was sorry that the mascara didn’t do anything for my lashes. I will give it one more try though and see if it works better.

    • September 8, 2015 / 10:38 am

      Bummer about that, Marcia! It took me over a month to finally use the mascara the right way, and I totally hated it at first. I like this one a lot now that I’m using the right technique, but doubt I’d repurchase. I’m still faithful to standard wands 🙂

  6. September 7, 2015 / 10:22 pm

    I really want to try the mascara, I keep forgetting to get it! That liner looks like something I might fail with lol I need like an extreme pointy tip to do my wing liner! Your liner looks great onyou though 🙂

    • September 8, 2015 / 10:36 am

      Thanks Janelle! Making the lines perfect took forever, since the tip is not pointy enough, but I think it works pretty well for covering a large area in one swipe. I prefer pointy tips, too 🙂

    I didn’t like the eyeliner either!

    • September 8, 2015 / 10:40 am

      I can see how someone that really likes bold and thick liner looks can find a good use for it, but it’s not for me either. I actually like the way my wings came out for this picture, but it literally took me about 30 minutes to get them right!

    I wasn’t a fan of the eyeliner – but I did like the mascara!

    • September 21, 2015 / 11:36 am

      I think it’s just a matter of which look is your usual go-to. I think the liner is pretty nice, but only for someone who loves a bold wing. I had trouble creating thin lines with it.

    • September 21, 2015 / 11:43 am

      Yay, I’m a fan, too!

  9. September 9, 2015 / 8:04 am

    I was just ok about the mascara but I LOVE that liner! It is so easy to use!

    • September 21, 2015 / 11:43 am

      Glad to hear that! I can definitely see you with a beautiful bold winged eye look this eyeliner is so perfect for 🙂
