I love this medium-dark chocolate brown shade. It has great color payoff, glides on easily, and doesn't pull or tug due to the soft, creamy texture. The staying power is great on both my upper and lower lash lines, lasting 8+ hours; so-so staying power on my waterline if I don't set it with a powder eyeshadow.
There are fine flecks of silver shimmer shot through the color, but I certainly don't find it to be super shimmery or large, chunky glitter (it's much finer than the glitter in say, the Heavy Metal glitter liquid liners by the same brand). It's subtle, but enough to see there is some there. I don't have any problems with it clumping on my lashes, upper or lower, which are long.
This has become my holy grail brown pencil liner, and I will definitely repurchase.
