This is the 4th NYX eyeliner that I own and recently purchased, and like my last three- this color works wonderfully! it glides on my waterline with perfection, lasts all day and is pigmented. I don't like using pencil liners on my eyelids, only my wateline so I can't comment on how it would work in that area- but for the waterline this is fantastic, it deposits a nice dark silver color that looks really striking and brightens up your eye area effortlessely. Before discovering these eyeliners, every eyeliner that I tried was either to harsh or irritated my waterline- these liners do not, and they are super cheap to purchase online at Cherry Culture.com. If you have a chance to try these, do not pass them up! :)

As beautiful as this color is on the back of my hand, it barely shows up on my eyelids. I'm an NC30, just for reference. It's not that it doesn't glide on easily, because it does. It just doesn't show up well on my skin tone without layering it on. If you're fairer skinned, it might show up better on you, but for me it's going up for swap.

I bought this pencil a couple weeks back at Ulta and really love it. I use it on my lower waterline to brighten my dark brown eyes and it works very well. Yes, you have to swipe it a few times to fully cover, but wearing it tonight and applying it at 6pm, now at 10pm it hasn't budged, so not too bad on staying power. My eyes tend to water easily too.

The price was decent. I'd buy this eyeliner in silver again.

Update/edit: After using this on my lower lashes from time to time over the last few months, I still like it but kinda wish the formula were a little softer. I'll try zapping it with my hairdryer to see if that softens it up, because it can be difficult to deposit a noticeable amount of product without rubbing hard or over and over. I'll try applying a little heat first and see if that does the trick.

I got the very last one of these at Albertsons. They have NYX 60% off at select stores.

This is a gorgeous chrome silver liner. It's almost matte silver if that makes sense. Mine went on smoothly, and stayed put. If you apply either translucent powder or primer to your lids and undereyse before application, it will stay.

This is a really good product for what you pay for it. I got it for $1 at a little family owned beauty store and i really happen to love it. It applies really smoothly and it stays on for quite a while. It is kind of like the NYX jumble pencils because it is so thick that you can use it as an eyeshadow as well. I also got this in Light Brown and i like it just as well. I can use the Light Brown underneath me eye and then use the Silver as an eyeshadow and it looks really pretty.

Agree with most of the pro`s and con`s that have been listed before, but in my opinion, this was long lasting. I have only used it for one day, but applied it on the undereyearea, and its still there, even after several hours! Very nice and discreet silver shimmer, my new favorite! :)

Pros:
- Smooth to apply
- A really true medium shaded silver
- Good value
- Beautiful shimmer

Cons:
- Doesn't last long, but you can't expect too much from the price
- Needs a few swipes to get enough colour payoff
