(Super Fat) This is my HG eyeliner. It is much like using a magic marker and is so easy to use for a cat eye that I wish I had found it years ago. I feel more like I am drawing than painting with it as it flows so easily (but without any mishaps or skips). The color pay off is fantastic, it wears well and is reasonably priced, dries fairly quickly - I will use this until they stop making it. One caveat - this creates a bold swish, so if you are a fan of less obvious lining it may not be a good choice for you. However it is flexible enough that you can create some fine detailing with a light hand.

I love eyeliner pens, I love felt-tips on them a lot. This is very middle-of-the-road of good felt-tip eyeliners. The finish is slightly matte, it's not very dark but not grey in color. The ink doesn't flow great through the long tip and the tip is pretty unwieldy, even when broken in. It needs to be put over primer because the pigments can transfer (I have hooded eyelids, yay.) It doesn't fade too much during wear and it doesn't flake.

I like Revlon's ColorStay pen liner more, but I will definitely use this up. For liners in general, I like NYX's studio liquid eyeliners and TIGI pencils (but I think those are discontinued.) It's solid, just not my absolute favorite due to the transferring issue.

Was looking for a matte black liquid liner and decided to give this a try due to the good reviews. The felt tip is pretty thin and easy to use which is perfect for those trying to achieve a thin line. I mainly used this to wing out my gel liner and had to go over and fill it in a few times since I want a slightly thicker outer line, maybe I should have gotten the fat liner instead.
Wasn't impressed with the last power though. Used it on a normal day and noticed some slight smudging, thought it was my bottom liner and disregarded it. Tried it again in 70degree outdoor weather and within 5-6 hours it had almost either bleed or melted off.
Guess this will be going back in exchange for something else.

Let me preface this by saying that I am an absolute eyeliner junkie. I have liners from a million different brands, from Chanel, Urban Decay, Clinique, Stila, etc. all the way down to Wet N Wild and that nameless stuff you get at Mexican corner stores. This is hands down the easiest liner I've ever used in my life. If I'd had this when I first discovered eyeliner, I could've saved myself a lot of embarrassing pictures.

I have the Super Skinny version in Carbon Black. There's not much to say about it, other than that it's simply great at what it does. It stays put on my oil field-like lids, puts down a line that's not too dark and not too light, dries quickly, and can be applied by even the clumsiest person alive (me). This is the liner I would grab if I had 5 minutes to spare and needed to squint into my rearview mirror to put on my make up in the morning. It is foolproof and easy.

And this might actually be sacrilege, but I like this even more than the >$30 Chanel eyeliner pen (!!!).

This is for the fat marker. Mine is new at the moment, so I cannot comment if it dries out quickly, but right now it works amazingly. It goes on pitch black in one stroke, so dark I thought it might be a pain to get off, but it is very easy to remove! I am not great at wet liner - I have pretty good luck with Japanese brand markers as they have very nice ends - but I find this one quite easy to use, too. Love it!

I just bought this a few days ago and my gosh. i loved this thing. LOL. I got the super skinny one and i love how it applies on so thinly. it dries very quickly and doesn't smudge. Although, this thing isn't waterproof. but all in all. It's a really good product

I got the super skinny marker. At first I thought I would like it. I was new to the felt tip eyeliner idea. But soon enough I realized it was pretty difficult to handle in my opinion and I would rather stick a standard eyeliner. It wasn't very black and you would have to run it back and fourth on your eye to get it a nice black.

First of all, I'm really into the retro-bombshell-60s-glamour look and have been using eyeliners of every type for years. I have for the past year really preferred liquid liners to gel, pencil or cake liners for the precision, convenience and ease of use. My favorite until this point has been Stila's eyeliner pen, which is a great product! Then I tried this, curious to check it out because I've never seen such a huge fat liquid liner, I bought it on a whim for around 9-10 bucks and it's some of the best money I've spent! The color is carbon black, and unlike what others are saying, I find it to be a dark, opaque, ebony black that dries satiny (not shiny or vinyl nor too matte and flat). The thickness is PERFECT for one-swipe cat-eye perfection and it's so incredibly easy to use! And, it lasts ALL day. GREAT product!!

First thoughts: Perfect!! I found a liner marker to make a massive Amy Winehouse inspired winged eye
…Yeah…I was wrong…
I got the super fat one and got my money back because I was so disappointed. It smeared and made a mess aka everything you DON’T want in an eyeliner !!

I bought the Super Fat Eye Marker and this is one of the few pieces in my makeup collection that I was truly disappointed with. First off, the formula is quite inky/streaky, and the color itself is more of a soft black rather than a dark, true black. Also, the thick felt tip frays and bends after continued use, allowing you to get less and less of a precise line. After hours of wear, this fades from a soft black to a VERY faded looking gray color, and it creases... I have never seen a liquid eyeliner crease. I didn't realize how bad this was until switching back to my old favorite. I wouldn't recommend this for anyone.

I love this as a felt tip liner pen! it is incredible! I wish the tip stayed pointy, but after some use, it tends to lose its shape a litte.. i also have not used it in a little while, and it seems it dried out a little... took quite a bit of "writing" to get the color back, and even then it wasnt the same :( brand new, though it is amazing.

This is a review for the Super Skinny Eye Marker. After I ran out of my HG liquid eyeliner, I decided to try a cheaper one in hopes of replacing my old one. I'm a big fan of NYX products, so I decided to give this one a try. Unfortunately, it did nothing but disappoint. I don't know if the one I picked up was super old or what, but the formula seemed to be semi-dried out. After forcing some ink out of the pen applicator, all I got on my hand was a faint, grayish line. It fared even worse on my eyes. This liquid eyeliner does not stay put. I've even tried putting a primer in hopes of prolonging the lasting power, but to no avail. It smudges within an hour of application, to the point where you can't even tell I'm wearing eyeliner. I'm hoping I just got a bad product, but I'm not willing to take the risk again.

I like this eyeliner because I'm able to get a very precise line. It doesn't have great staying power so I will try something else after I use this up.

I really was excited about the Super Skinny liner b/c I loooove the tip. It provides precise control and makes making winged looks so foolproof. However, the lack of pigment and how soon it dried out were a real disappointment. Maybe I should try the Super Fat one? Purchased in Carbon Black from Ulta.

Smell: nothing too bothersome. Smells like a marker but not overly strong.

Opaqueness: requires redrawing the line several time and still ends up looking sheer.

Tip/Brush: The tip is amazing. I love the control it provides and how firm it is and it doesn't lose it's shape. All pen eyeliners should have a tip like this. However, it dries out SOOOOOOOOO fast! I've had it for a few months but compared to my Revlon Colorstay pen (which I've had for over a year) it was so quick to dry out. Maybe this was because of how thin the tip is?

Price: Don't remember how much I paid but wasn't much more than $7.

I cannot reiterate enough how disappointed I am in the actual formula. The packaging and tip were amazing but the formula just didn't live up to my expectations.

I like this eyeliner. It's good for getting a very nice thin line on your eyelashes and I haven't had many problems with it. My only problem with it is that I feel like it dries out quickly and it is not very pigmented. Other than that, it is fine.

when i bought this i was quite excited because im horrible with eyeliner. going into this with high expectations because of my love of nyx products. -packaging- nothing special or super cute but not horrible either
-pigmentation- very good i got mine in carbon black and it most definitely was
-price- 10 online but i got on sale for 7 its okay not dirt cheap definitely affordable
-smell- it smells like a marker but then again it's called an eye marker for something
-quality- i'm not sure if i'd repurchase it but i will not throw it away until its finished. smudges if you touch your eye so be careful. lasting ability is normal not best. this tends to come on my eyeshadow when i blink sometimes


ok so overall this is one of those in between products im not raving about it is usable and you can work with it. right after applying it i suggest you close your eyes for a couple seconds before blinking as i said before it is not the best so i recommend perhaps purchasing another eye marker this one is 3 stars in my opinion

I have the fat one because my Ulta is always out of the skinny one. I thought it would only make fat, dramatic lines...so I was a bit hesitant. I love the control it gives, you can have either skinny or fat lines. It stays alright during the day, begins to smudge about the time I get home from work (about 6pm). Otherwise, its a good product, hopefully I can try the skinny one next time.

i bought this Skinny liquid eyeliner pen because A. i'm most adept at using a felt-tipped Sharpie style liquid liner than i am at using regular liquid liner or even my MAC Fluidlines B. i had just run out of my first favorite (felt-tipped) style of liquid eyeliner which was made by Styli-Style and couldn't find the brand again near me to save my life and C. i wasn't ready to shell out for the Smashbox Limitless liquid e/l that i had my eye on (ended up getting that later anyways). i adore this NYX e/l, you can get super, super, super close to your lashline and even in between little gaps if you need to because of the extra fine tip. you can use it for a very subtle look or you can do the whole winged out thing and it looks gorgeous either way! i also have pigmentation on my eyelids (like dark circles but all the way around-- lucky me!) and so i have to put a light layer of foundation over my eyelids and this doesn't mess up the application of my NYX Skinny Marker at all. if i could have one tiny gripe, i do think it could be a *little teensy* bit blacker, because i like a really deep, carbon black opacity for liquid liners. I would (and will) repurchase this as soon as it runs out.

100% the best felt tip eyeliner I have ever used!!! its tip is amazing gives perfect precision, and the either skinny, or fat option let you choose which type of drama you want. High drama thick lines obviously go with the thick one, and for thin cat eye lines, go with the skinny! I prefer the fat one, it is easier to hold on to, and is easier to maneuver for some reason... plus I prefer thick dramatic looks!!! try it out, you will not be disappointed!! they are about 10 to 13$ and I got mine from ulta!

Great product, very easy to apply. I bought the skinny one. And i can make a super thin line or make it up to a more dramatic look. Very pigmented and stays on all day for me. I will be repurchasing as long as they make it.
