I received this eyeliner in a swap and I love it not for use as an eyeliner but for use as a brow filler. This color and pencil is great for drawing in my eyebrows and it is a very smooth pencil.

This is the first pencil eyeliner that I have developed a love affair with. I use it on my lower lash line and it lasts for hours. there's a little smudging but I expect that because where I'm from, it's hot almost everyday and my skin is oily. found a solution though... I top it off with a powder eyeshadow and I don't notice any smudging anymore even after 6 or 8 hours. Love the color payoff and how it glides smoothly, no tugging or pulling required lol. It's not too smooth like Milani LiquifEye (like butter) and I think that's a good thing. This is a great everyday eyeliner. The color is lovely, not too dark. I will buy it again!

I really hope that this particular color hasn't been discontinued! I found this marked down 75% off at Rite Aid and decided to give it a try, because I didn't have the time to run to Target to replace my previous fave brown liner (Sonia Kashuk Iced Coffee). I figured it would be a temporary solution. I love this color so much! It gives me all of the drama of black liner without the harshness. It really brightens up my eyes and pairs beautifully with the neutral eye looks that I wear to work most days. The lasting power isn't the best, because it tends to fade as the day goes on; luckily, it doesn't run or smear on me. I really like that this is the kind of pencil that you have to use a sharpener on. I'm not a big fan of self-sharpening pencils because the point is never quite sharp enough.
Love this! I snap them up every time I see them!

This is the 3rd of these I'm on now. Like BB's Espresso e/l but in pencil form. It's not the very best kohl I've ever used (MUFE kohl is HG for that) but it's the prettiest shade of black/brown in a kohl. The application is not as smooth as I'd like and has a tendency to wear off a little faster than other kohls, but for a drugstore e/l, with the shade that this is, I really love it. It is a harder pencil so I have to work it a bit more but it doesn't smear off, just fades, so no fear of pirate eyes.

I LOVE THIS PENCIL!!! I use it exclusively for coloring in my brows, so can't comment on any other use. It is a rich brownish black shade. It is perfect for those with dark brown or black hair because it colors in eyebrows without making you look like a drag queen or clown like other black pencils. Your eyebrows are just softly colored, and it looks natural and doesn't scream "Hello, my name is ______, and I drew on my brows today." This color is a pain in the a** to find though...no luck at drug stores and I had to go to 2 different Ultas before I spotted it. I initially used it at a friend's house one day, and bribed her days later to swap me for another pencil, but she refused. If you come across one, GRAB IT! You won't be disappointed! :-)
