I use the eyeliner in Black Ink, and I will say that it is THE BEST eyeliner HANDS DOWN!!! It goes on really well, it can be smudged really well to create a dramatic smokey eye effect, you can draw all over the place with this stuff. Honestly, it is fantastic.

I draw on the rim of my eye with it and actually have poked myself on my eyes with it, and my eyes STILL don't get irritated. This stuff looks black in the stick and goes on black, the way it should be. Plus, it's dirt cheap.

My sister uses this as well and she is a makeup artist, and she also agrees that it is the best eyeliner we have ever used.

I will buy this product for the rest of my life if possible.

It's only with Bonne Bell that I was able to find the perfect shade of bronze: Coppered Bronze Eye Definer! Its the only color along with brown and taupe that seems to work for me. Regardless of what brand it is, black eyeliners look too harsh and it usually smudges, giving me the dreaded 'raccoon eyes.'

I also got the 'hot cocoa,' when I want more definition, 'stone washed' when I needed to brighten my eyes. For the unbeatable price of $1.99 (Shopper's drug mart) and good quality, you can't go wrong. For someone saddled with an oily complexion, I never had any problem with smudges. It glides smoothly on top of the upper and lower lashline, after I applied moisturizer and foundation. For more staying power, I then dab on powder. It has been a staple for 3 years and for sure , will be, for a long time.

I have this eyeliner in white, and I purchased it for $1-2.

The consistency is creamy and very smooth. It stays on my waterline and lower lashline forever and does not budge. It does not irritate my eyes. It really brightens the area and is a true pure white.

It has a cap that can be a bit flimsy.

However for the price and for the quality of the product itself, it is a great buy. I would definitely repurchase.

I bought this in Pebble, and think I've found a hidden gem! I've been looking for an eyeliner colour that will add some definition while looking very natural. Black, dark grey and brown looks great on my upper lashline, but harsh on my lower lashline, and tends to highlight the "pinkness" of my waterline for an all-over terrible look, like I've been crying or forgot my allergy meds! Pebble is exactly what I was looking for. It is a medium grey with a hint of lilac undertone - just a hint, barely noticeable. Blended into the lower lash-line it looks like my lashes are thicker, and on the waterline it blends it with my lashline beautifully, adding just enough colour to compliment my eyes and camouflage my waterline without looking harsh or "done up". Perfect for a natural, pretty daytime look, probably with any eyeshadow (although I use MAC's Satin Taupe almost exclusively).

I got glow (matte white), smokey (grayish brown), and black. I use glow for my waterline when i want to get a bright-eyed look and it glides smoothly and is very pigmented. I actually use Smokey for my eye brows! it's the perfect natural shade and it doesn't smudge. I use black to line the top of my lashline prior to using liquid eye liner. i wouldn't recommend using the black one for the lower lash line because it does smudge. Instead take an angled brush and use a very pigmented black eye shadow to line it! this is a smudge proof technique!


For only $1.99 CAD, you can't complain. It's smooth,won't tug, and gets the job done.

SMUDGES LIKE CRAZY.
Only reason it got 2 lippies from me is because it is really smooth & creamy, making the application a breeze.
But after a couple of hours, prepared to witness a mess around your eyes.

I've been using this eyeliner since I started wearing make up. It's really easy to put on and goes on very dark. I wear really thick eyeliner so it always mildly annoyed me when it wouldn't stay put but I still liked it. The only reason I wont repurchase is because i've discovered liquid eyeliner and I like it better.

I have this in a blue, black, grey and a dark brown. I must say that the darker colours go on smoothly and last a long time. The blue and grey go on too light for my liking. But other than that, they're nice and cheap and last a long time.

I wanted a white eye pencil that was very cheap for experimenting, so I picked up this one for about $1.50. I have to say I am very impressed.

I use it on my waterline and this pencil is so soft and creamy, it takes no effort whatsoever to use. It goes on brightly and lasts all day and sometimes through to the next day if I go to sleep without taking off my eye makeup.

I haven't tried any of their darker liners so I can't say whether they're any good or not, but the white pencil is great.

Even though this is a creamy gliding eyeliner,
it still gives you a tough time trying to make the lines on both eyes even
i have brown, and it works OK, not the best
it smudges alot

I have this liner in a slate blue colour and purple. They are so hard to get on my eyes. When I can get it on, it barely lasts at all. I find the colours go on too pale as well.

I bought this a while ago as I was starting to try out makeup, and I liked this stuff at the time, and its still not a bad product. I think I'm ready to move onto nicer eyeliners though... I'd rate it 3 and a half lippies if I could, since its like 1.50 and the colours are subtle enough to use just about anytime! The blue, well, I wasn't a big fan of, the green was an ok colour, the grey was actually pretty nice (a soft grey) and the brown looked nice on me (tan asian skin, very dark eyes). The staying power wasn't too bad either! Especially with the oily lids I have >.<

Bonne Bell Eye Definer in smoky:
This is seriously the best eyeliner I have found so far. With my fair complexion I always found that eyeliner washed me out and was often too dark. I went looking for a low intensity brown eyeliner and found this amazing product. This liner is a gray brown color and is very cheap, only $1.34 at walmart. It applies well and provides a natural look when applied along the the lower lash line. I also like the size of this liner because it is small enough to fit in small makeup bags which I often us for traveling. I would definetly recommend this product to anyone and plan on repurchasing.

Update:
I think this product has been smudging. Not so much smudging when you rub it or anything but throughout the day I begin to notice it about 1/2 cm below my lower lash line. This is still a very hard color to beat for my skin color though so this will still be my back up. I am going to give a few other eyeliners a try first but I could still see myself going back to this product.

this eyeliner is pretty similar to more expensive brands, but this is so cheap. the most i've ever seen it on sale for is $2. i bought mine for $1. anyways its pretty decent, but there are some problems with it. this smudges a lot on me and it tugs on my skin while im putting this on. its also not as pigmented as i'd like it to be and its difficult to sharpen. i had 2 of these in navy blue and black, and everytime i sharpened either of these, the wood would split and break. i got pretty frustrated. but i guess you get what you paid for

Yep, I like this product lots just because I mean, for a liner that I bought for $3 at the very most, it delivers great quality as an eye liner! My friend, Michelle, is one to wear very very dark makeup all the time and my friends are always comenting on how we look exactly alike (even though we have no resemblence towards each other whatsoever). When I try on this eyeliner, a few coats will give me a dark and mysterious, and a lot of coats (lets say 4+) will earn me a compliment of how much I look like Michelle which makes me laugh. But overall, you get what you pay for and even though it's a little smearing if you aren't careful with application (and you really should be paying attention while doing makeup anyways). I like this a lot though. What else is there to say about eyeliner except that?

This is hands down the best eyeliner ever! I have been using it ever since I have started wearing makeup and although I admit I have strayed a few times, I ALWAYS came back to this eye liner. I use the shade 'Black Ink'. It suits all of my eye liner needs: being super dark black which does not fade to a dark brown or grey, lasting a long time and being cheap. Ahh I don't know what I would do if this awesome eyeliner got discontinued. This eye liner is perfect for lining the inner rims of my eyes as well as my upper eye lids. It is great for creating a dark, sexy cat eye look. It also lasts forever, even during the times I have cried. I sometimes reapply the eye liner in the inner rims of my eyes during the day to freshen up, even though it is not really necessary. Once I accidently fell asleep with my eye liner on and when I woke up the next morning, it was still there and looked great! LOL. This eye liner is truly the best and the price is great too! It costs less than $1.50 which means I can buy a whole bunch to keep in my purse, bedroom, boyfriend's house, car, whatever! :)

This is the eyeliner that I normally wear either in "soft black" or "black ink" on my inner bottom eyelid. Compared to other eyeliner pencils I've tried, this one smudges the least, however, it tends to wear off quickly so reapplying it is kind of annoying.

How this product got a 3.6 average I have no clue. The product is soooo dry, the pigment doesn't adhere to the skin! I got it in that sparkly black colour and I regret not doing a swatch in the store before purchasing. $1.99CAD is dirt cheap, but I'd rather spend $7 on something that actually works.

I love these, I purchased "espresso", "midnight bark", "indigo", "smoky", "coppered bronze", and "black shimmer", they all have amazing pigment and last quite a long time. I've heard the lighter colors are pretty soft and take a lot of applying to show up, but for 1.00-1.50 depending where you buy it, it's an amazing buy and you aren't out much if you happen to not like it all that much!
