Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes Collection - Review, Photos, Swatches

A dreary and dark day in my area sets the perfect setting for curling up on the couch with a mug of hot dark chocolate for some good old-fashioned blogging!  Today I have one of my purchases from the Sephora F/F sale from a couple weeks back - the Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes Collection, a set of two full-sized liners (0.04 oz.; in Mat Black 0L [black] and Pearly Brown 2L [pearly medium brown]) and four mini liners (0.025 oz.; in Dark Grey 21L [shimmery gunmetal], Blue with Green Highlights 12L [metallic teal], Champagne 23L [warm metallic champagne], and Black Purple 6L [blackened purple]). 

L to R: Mat Black 0L, Pearly Brown 2L, Dark Grey 21L, Black Purple 6L, Blue with Green Highlights 12L, Champagne 23L

I think most are familiar with Make Up For Ever's Aqua Liners, but if not, they are a solid, long-wearing staple that I keep on rotation in my makeup collection. They have good pigmentation and can be purchased individually for $18 at Sephora. As for this set, it is a lovely little classic collection that offers a variety of colors, none of which are too crazy, and a great value at $36 (basically, it's like purchasing two full-size and getting four minis free). Unfortunately this set seems to be out of stock and the moment, but if any of these shades speak to you you can purchase the full-size pencil from Make Up For Ever's permanent line. Sephora frequently offers MUFE value sets, so keep an eye out!

Thanks so much for reading! I truly appreciate it. Please follow me if you are enjoying this blog :)

  1. I have several of these and love them. I also really like the UD 24/7 eye pencils.

    1. Hi Marla,

      Aren't they great?! I love UD too, more or less equally! These days I usually search for which company has the best value sets.. ;)

    1. Hi Adeline,

      The staying power's great! These will easily last all day without smudging and only minimal fading. 23L is a great staple shade!
