I love this eyeliner! I find that it goes on nicely and I love how cheap it is! I saw some reviews on how its "waxy" and it tugs on your eye and I havent experienced that at all. I have two different brown colors and I like the lighter one but I do use the darker brown for theater. I find that they last long and go on pretty smoothly. Like this product will get this agian after I run out!

This eyeliner is one of the worst products I've used from WnW. I purchased Midnight Black and the name is deceiving. It was not a rich, pigmented black, but more of a soft black/darker grey. It tugged on the eyelid and application skipped; not smooth or creamy at all.
The upside was that it does have some good staying power for something that is not waterproof, seeing as how i have oily lids. I may try this as a brow pencil instead.

First off i'll say that i dont use this product as an eyeliner i find that it is very waxy and would pull tug and smudge but it makes an absoulutly wonderful eyebrow pencil, since the product IS NOT very creamy or smooth, its waxy consistency works magic at keeping eyebrows look neat and managed i have dark brown hair and use the darkest brown shade and it gives a very natural yet polished look.

I can't believe this product got such a high rating - it's horrible! It tugs when u put it on, has a greyish color (I got the black one), and has NO staying power. I would have to reapply this 5 times a day if I used it. I had to press really hard when applying and trace and retrace the line just to get it to show up well. Definitely will not buy again even though it was less than $2.

wet n wild is a hit or miss brand. im dissapointed with this eyeliner because my HG nude lipstick that ive used since i was 13 is from this brand as well as other beauty staples such as eyeliners and lip balms. however this eyeliner doesnt fall into that special place in my makeup stash. this has almost no staying power. i put it on as a touchup at my desk at work and a few minutes caught a glimpse of myself in a napkin dispenser (it was metal and shiny!) and thought "um....where the hell did my eyeliner go?" IT WAS COMPLETELY GONE. mind you, im in an air conditioned corporate office on a mild san diego day....there were no outside weather factors to go against this product. i generally do not have oily lids and i was wear primer soo...i dont know what happened with this liner. thank goodness its so cheap. never again

I've repurchased this numerous times. I always load up with Mink Brown when it's BOGO at the drugstores. They're dirt cheap and I definitely get my $1.99 (or half if on sale) out of it. The Mink Brown is a super dark brown that's darker than the dark brown but not black. It's the perfect color for me. It doesn't smudge and since I'm a bad, bad girl, I never wash my face at night. It's still hanging tough the next morning when I wake up. Serious staying power if you ask me.

I love this eyeliner, its the only one I use. Its easy to put on and lasts for me all day. I have sensitive eyes and its a major plus for me that this liner does not irritate them at all when I apply it or when I rub my eyes during the day. This product definitely gets the nod from me.

The idea of this- rectractable eyeliner, smudger, and sharpener all in one- really appeals to me but I find the product itself to be lacking. It doesn't go on smoothly or evenly and the color isn't as dark as I'd like it to be. I would not repurchase unless they changed the formula. The concept is great, though.

This product is officially my biggest Makeup Surprise EVER. I have spent the better part of my makeup-wearing life looking for an eyeliner that can survive my sensitive, ever-watering eyes, and here it is, so cheap I feel guilty for not paying more for it. This stuff stays on for days-- through face washings, showers, sad movies... And it doesn't make my eyes itch or water more than they do naturally (Although, YMMV, I highly recommend this for people with sensitive eyes). It does have a couple of small negatives: I find that it tends to dry out a little over time, making it harder to apply. And I have found differences in the product each time I buy another one--so if you get one that seems so-so at one store--return it and buy one at another store. It could be that it is sensitive to temperature, humidity, etc. Rite Aid and Kmart often have 99 cent and BOGO sales on Wet N Wild products. I never pay more than $1 for them!

While on MUA I was lerking around the review for these liners, and I'm glad I did. I read about them and loved the fact it was retractable,had a sharpener,AND a smudger. It was only 1.99 so I couldn't pass it up... Being that I'm only a teen and can't get a job.
PROS:Dark black color
Creamy
Lots of prodcut
Long Lasting
NO RACOON EYE!!(YAY!)
Cons:It took me forever to figure out where the sharpener was...LOL And I'm the honors student...
XD
All in all it's a good liner, and I hightly reccomend it.(I have normal skin so I don't know how long it would last on oily skin)

I bought this in Italy and I absolutely love the concept of this eyeliner. I love retractable eyeliners, and this one is great because it has a built in sharpener AND smudger. However, I don't think the smudger is even needed considering that after I apply the eyeliner, it's smudged within 1-5 minutes. For some reason this liner does not stay on my eyes very well. My eyeliner is in Midnight Black, and it is a nice rich, black color. However, this just doesn't cut it for me in terms of quality.

I bought kohl eyeliner first and it smears easily, then i tried this eyeliner, much better but still smears a little bit after two hours. i bought mink brown, it sooooo matches my hair color and i luv it! actually i found that mink brown is darker than dark brown, so if u have black-brown hair, mink brown is much better for u than dark brown i guess. i will repurchase it and it's worth the price----just 2 bucks, it's dirt cheap!

I love this product! It was very cheap and when I first put it on it was very smooth and thin. It does not smudge (only if you use the smudger which is attached). It is also retractable which I really love, because you do not have to sharpen it! I would definetly buy this again or recommend it to someone else!!

I've had a really good experience with this eyeliner that I have purchased in Black. I have very oily skin, so I have not found any eyeliner that lasts a long time or that doesn't smudge some. Even some of the more expensive brands that I have tried have either smudged or had no lasting power. For the price of this eyeliner, it works very well. Yes, it still does smudge *a little* and fades after a 12 hour day (but can you really get mad about that?) but compared to what I have paid for more expensive eyeliners, it's definitely worth it. I would say that it does stay on my eyes a little better because to me it has a more waxy texture, but it still goes on smooth. Unless this begins to irritate my eyes, I think that i will stick with it. I bought on sale for 1.99, buy one get one free at Walgreens!

I bought this in dark brown and black with glitter inside it, and while I loved the colours, I found that they never stayed on for more than 5 min on my eyes! I guess it's because of the very creamy consistency of the eye pencil. It's good when you're using this on your eyes because I get enough colour without having to tug at my eyelids, and it's very good for blending however, the downside of this is that it never lasts on me, and smudges quite a lot. When I wear the one with black glitter the glitter gets over my face. I suppose if it doesn't smudge on you, then this would be good, especially for the price. But for me, I'd give this a miss.

I like this eyeliner. It's goes on smooth enough that you don't have to pull your eyelids to put it on, but it's not so smooth that it smudges off when you blend. I got black, and it's a good color - it goes on thin enough that I can wear it to work. Another layer, and I could wear it out at night. Good stuff.

I finally used up my Milani retractible eyeliner but since I needed some new eyeliner immediately, the closest place I could go to was my local Fred's (a poor man's Walmart here in the South) where they have a limited collection of Wet 'n' Wild. I love the convenience of a retractible pencil and this was actually the only one they carried of any of the brands.
I got this in Dark Brown and for the $1.99 price it's not too bad. I like my Milani pencil tons better but for the price and convenience of getting it less than a mile from my house, I think I would buy it again.
Reasons why I didn't like it as much as the Milani: it was not as smooth, the tip was finer and I like a slightly thicker application, and the color is not quite as dark as I would like it. But again, not a bad buy so if you come across one of these in a sale, it's worth giving it a try.

I got this in dark brown and i love it! it was less than two dollars at a discount food place! haha (yes, im quite frugal=). Their wet n wild comes in packages, so i had no problem with the smuger falling out although i dont think i'll use it. great cheap retractable eyeliner. i love the color! normally i dont line my bottom lids, but this stuff is real smooth and (the dark brown anyway) is not harsh like black.

I have this in black and dark brown. I think i might've written a post about the black already (which i love) so ill write about the dark brown which i know i havent. the dark brown is a good color, a true dark brown. but the eyeliners consistency is very slippery and gel-like. it slips and slides very easily. i mightve just gotten an off pencil though bc i really like the black one which never did that. i said yes to repurchasing bc its a good product but not in this color.
