Creamy and long lasting

I’m an mua and love these pencils because they really glide onto clients. You can blend them with the reassurance of knowing that they’re waterproof

Stays where it's supposed to!

I have never in my life purchased anything but cheap, drugstore eyeliner. Now with aging eyes, I wanted something gentle and flattering and this product was highly reviewed, so I gave it a try. WOW! An eyeliner that stays where it's supposed to stay, doesn't work its way down fine lines throughout the day, and a beautiful, professional look.

best eyeliner EVER

this eyeliner is everything not only is it VERY pigmented but i could wear it and trust that it won't move ( seriously -- it stays in my waterline all day and it wont move or fade ), ive tried using it as a base for a smokey eye look and it worked like magic and it is so soft on the skin u wouldnt need to press hard or pull. i highly recommend this product!

Seriously waterproof!!

I am so impressed with this liner. It beats all the liners that I have tried to the dust! I have very teary eyes and no liners last on my waterline...that is until this one! I also like that it is so creamy and it glides on easily. Highly recommended!!

Works great!

So glad I found this. I also use the gel liner by Anna Sui, but that is one that you don't want to use if you are in a hurry... cuz it takes a steady, calm hand. But this is something I can put on really quick and it lasts! I like to shower at night, and put it on, then in the morning, it is just a little smudged... and I apply another nice strong black line over it and it looks so cool! Love this, please don't discontinue! WILL be reordering!

Really liking it

I didn't expect to like it as much as I do. Most eyeliners I try whose claim to fame is in its ability to be "smudge proof" or "pigmented" or whatever else it's supposed to do just never really cut it for me. For a while I stuck with the Charlotte Tilbury rock n kohl liner but it's just way too expensive and sharpening it all the time was a pain. This eyeliner though...it's does what it says it does. It's pigmented. Smooth. Great staying power. Twist up. Hell yea. Love it. Plus it's a reasonable price. I recommend this product. For sure.

High hopes but didn't live up to expectations. Terrible in fact.

I ordered this with the Ardency Inn punker rock liquid eyeliner to see which would stay on longer. Sadly this smudged very quickly and easily. Just did not have good staying power. I would say purchase the ardency inn one.

The good: it comes in this twisting mechanism which saves you from sharpening the tip, but also has an attachable sharpener to sharpen the tip. The bad: Sadly this fails to be useful as the sharpener doesn't seem to sharpen the eyeliner much but just leaves it in an awful shape. (photo attached with my attempt to 'sharpen the tip). So terrible.

If you want a gel eyeliner with excellent staying power- I would recommend the the Chantecaille 24H waterproof eyeliner instead. Those stay on much better than this. V Disappointed.

This really stays on! And you don't even need much!

This eyeliner is so creamy, yet it doesn't bleed at all! I love that I can just tightline with it and not worry about my lower rim getting all black. Also, I love to just take a clean small edge brush and just take what is already in my tightline area and just drag it upwards for a very very subtle flick. It just gives you that "oomph". That goes to show that it's that opaque! I can use it on its own, take it onto a little brush as if it were a gel liner in a pot and it always stays. Love it. No complaints whatsoever, except now I want more of them!

Genius design and formula

Two things about me -- I live in a windy city and I wear contacts. These two things alone usually make eyeliner impossible for me. Either it runs and smears into the corners of my eyes or makes my contacts foggy and my eyes irritated. Time and time again I try a new liner promising to do none of the above only to be disappointed. To find one, let alone with such genius design (seriously -- a retractable pencil with a sharpener just for precision...genius!), is like going on a blind date with low expectations and leaving the with butterflies, anxiously awaiting the next time you get to see them, or in this case, "it" (see what I did there?). So far I've only been using it for tightlining my upper waterline and 10 hours later it is still on, eyes not irritated in the least and not even a smudge of transfer anywhere -- not even to the lower waterline which is unheard of.

Truly stays where you put it!

I highly recommend this product to all eye liner fans! I love this eye liner for 3 reasons: 1) It stays put! Usually other gel eye liners/pencils that I have used in the past end up smudging and smearing on the eye lid and may even leave an imprint near my brow. This gel eyeliner - I put it on my top lids in the morning and it didn't move until I removed it before going to bed! 2) It is so soft on the lid when you apply - I can barely feel it! You don't have to press hard, tug or go over multiple times to get the pigment you need. 3) The pigment lasts through till the end of the day - no touch ups were required!
