Glam By Manicare Magnetising Eyeliner & Lash System Review

I was excited to be able to get these products in the BR Vault. I haven’t had a liquid eyeliner in a while as it isn’t my everyday look so then end up going off. Also I haven’t been a big user of fake lashes so the whole idea just really excited me.

The packaging is pretty boring. The liquid eyeliner is pretty standard with a black bottom half and a silver lid. I do like that it is wide enough to stand upright which means that the brush won’t go dry when you use the product a lot. The fake eyelashes are in the standard plastic packaging (is there any company that has less single use plastic for this type of product?). I found that the sticky bits to keep the lashes on the plastic were quite strong and actually ended up moving the lashes around a lot when you try take them off. But I understand the need to be sticky to put the lashes back in there for multiple uses. Also - weird point - I’m not a usual lash user but is there a reason they have a left and right one? Why couldn’t I just use them on either eye? Even after using them - is it in case you have different sized eyes after trimming?

The eyeliner itself- so the product itself seems quite nice. A floppy brush, easy to use. Has a fine brush tip so nice to get right into the inner corner. Very very black which is nice. I like the glossy black look that it gives. I found it took a week while to dry down which might be because of the magnetising factors in it.

The lashes themselves - I received the natural 64. Willow lashes which is great because that is the look I would probably go after. I really like the lashes themselves, it is a very pretty natural wispy look. Now the first step is to try on the lashes to check the fit and trim if needed without cutting off the magnets. BUT the magnets are at the very outer edge of the lashes so how are you supposed to trim them without cutting the magnets off? I don’t get it. Luckily they JUST fit my eyes. To be fair I could probably do with trimming them a wee bit to get the perfect fit - but I don’t understand how you could know your eyes were too small for them before purchasing. They click on really easily however I did find that you couldn’t take them off without the eyeliner being damaged - but that isn’t a big deal. Also I find them really big in the middle part of the eye so it looks a bit strange to have long lashes near my nose. I don’t find them particularly strongly attached as the middle ones keep coming undone.

Overall this is fun to try but just doesn’t work for me. I don’t get the need to have the same look every time. That you need to use thick liquid eyeliner to use the lashes... why would you want a single look product like that. Don’t get it, won’t be keeping it.

I got these both through the recent vault. I really liked the idea of this as lashes is something I struggle with. As a set, they look really nice. I like the packaging, could be interpreted as plain to others but I think the black with silver writing looks sleek. I have detailed pros and cons of each individual product in their separate reviews.

As a set, it still took me 15 minutes to get these on the first time. I put this down to my inexperience and this being a new product however I thought it would have been faster. Subsequently the couple of other times I have used this it hasn't been much faster. The magnets can be quite fiddly. I seem to be able to get the center magnets to click without trouble it's just the inner and outer magnets that give me hassle. I think this may be down to not having a thicker line of the liner in both these areas. I also forget to shake the liner well as per instructions, this may also have something to do with it.

I've worn these a few times now and one thing is very clear. I only seem able to get about 5 hours wear out of these before the magnets start lifting and I need to go in with the liner again to reattach the lash.

I do like this lash system but think there is room for improvement in terms of the magnet design on the lashes and making the wear time last longer. I myself will probably just wear these for events or when I feel like making extra effort. These are easier for me to apply then the traditional glue and lash. Think this system would be great for beginner lash wearers.

I was super curious to try these, and so grabbing them in a vault was an amazing opportunity to do so.

I had an 'Egyptian Princess' look going on for the work Xmas party I needed these for, but due to the scheduling for the day i wound up with about ten mins to get ready in, so having these handy was a god send!

The liner is super super easy to apply, and even by itself is a great dark liquid. In the light you can see the flecks of the magnetic chips, but you can't feel them and they aren't irritating or scratchy.

I have the Khloe lashes, which are reasonably full (but I think I could go bigger!) and were the right length for me without trimming, which was handy.

You apply the liner, let it dry for a moment, and then push the lases onto it - I found I needed to place them then nudge them a little further down towards the lash line, but they adhered well and stayed put almost all night ( popped a corner once or twice, but it was a crazy party).

Removal is as simple as grasping one corner and giving it a gentle tug - no pain, no residue, no glue to clean. You just wash your face as normal and you're away.

I'll definitely keep using these!

I love these I’m hopeless at applying false eyelashes but this system is easy once you managed to get the eyeliner sorted, I make sure it’s a little thicker than I would normally have it then you just place the lash and it clings to the eyeliner and your good to go easy to remove. Great that they are reusable.

i cant remember how i got these lashes, possibly from a vault but more likely out of a bbbe? anyway. it was my first time trying false MAGNET lashes and i was soooo excited! i tried it on my hand first, and i was like, well, how hard can it be?

ha. hahahaha. well. the liner went on nicely and it was actually the easiest applying liner ive ever tried. but then.. came the lashes.

unfortunately because of where the magnets were placed, i couldnt get a decent fit. so i probably had small beady eyes. but anyway. the magnet was either rammed right up into the corner of my eye, which was super uncomfortable, or it was halfway up to say heeeyyy to my eyebrow. there was no in between to make these lashes better.

cutting them wouldve been a disaster, as then they wouldnt stick down in either corner and i'd look like even more of a freak. ive since given them all a good sanitze and gifted them on to someone who can (and does!) appreciate them more than i.

never again.

Found them hard to use. Just would not stay in place they felt uncomfortable and I didn't leave the house in them because I knew they would pop off at any moment. My eyes didn't like the liner either.

At first I thought it is amazing to find a magnetic false eyelashes so I bought some. I like how the false eyelashes are so soft and how amazing it is to just place an eyeliner on your lids and you can efficiently place your eyelashes in just minutes or seconds because of it's magnetic effect without the use of any glue.

The only downside about this product is that it is a bit pricey and the product won't even last for a day sometimes. I also did not like how it comes off really easily especially during a windy weather.
