Great automatic liner. Highly pigmented, waxy, not too transferring. Probably need to blend a bit into the lash line as otherwise can glide on slightly bumpy.

pretty great product. it is reliable and stays on your lids. however, sometimes the stick breaks and it becomes useless :(. price is good.

I had been looking for the perfect eyeliner for years, onea that was creamy, retractible, with sharpener, not too thick, that worked well on the waterline and on my lids and thatt didn't smudge...finally found it!

I wasn't sure about buying this, but after discovering my boss who always had her eyes so perfectly lined and another girl at my job, i decided to buy it.

It is the best eyeliner I've ever had, it fulfills all my expectations...i can use this in my waterline and lines very well, also on my lids,and it stays forever, until i take off my makeup.

It doesn't smudges at all, unless yo smudge itt when you apply it. I use this everyday and also for nights out, and i never look like a raccoon or a panda.

I tried before the urban decay's 24/7, lancome, l.a. colors, maybelline, covergirl, mac, and nothing works as nice as this....i suuuuper recommend this!!!

Wow, they re-formulated this! I've always loved Colorstay Eyeliners because they're the only liners that don't raccoon on me (*ahem* Urban Decay and MUFE liners). These used be a lot drier and harder to apply though. Now, they're great! Really glide on smoothly.

I will say that it does melt a bit on my lids after half a day but in a smoky way. I don't mind it because it doesn't get on my undereye area - woo!

This is a pretty good eyeliner. I didn't give it a perfect rating because it does melt a little over the course of the day. I do like that it is very pigmented (I have it in black). It is also very creamy and easy to apply, and I like the twist up style. Overall, it performs well and I would recommend it.

I found this to pull on my lids & it really wasn't that creamy.. When on it lasts all day (I only tested this on my upper lash line) really very mediocre in my book.. I normally like Revlon products & their white pencil liner is one of the best for your inner lash line.. But this just for me did not I've up to the hype..

I own this is the darkest brown they have and I love it. It only Smudge when I use my Smudge brush to Smudge it. I tightline my eyes at 7 a.m. and they last all day long till I come home from work at wash it off my face.

My HG eyeliner. Lasts a long time. If I put it on before I go out for the night and happen to fall asleep without washing it off, I'll wake up the next morning and I won't have raccoon eyes and eyeliner all over my face. I'm also the type of person to be constantly touching my face. I will often forget that I am wearing makeup and rub my eyes. While it won't stay put from constantly doing that, once or twice throughout the day will not smudge it whatsoever. The black is very dark. The brown-black is also dark, not so much brown, just not ask dark as the black. I like them both equally. I often find this at Walmart in a two pack for around 7 dollars. Each stick lasts me about 6 months of daily use. Slightly less if I am doing a thicker line.

A lot of people complain that this is too clumpy, not smooth, or breaks. I have found that this happens when you get an old or dried out batch. The new and improved formula goes on smoother, but the staying power has slightly lessened.

This eyeliner is nothing short of flawless. It's pigmented beautifully and it stays put; what more could you possibly want?
I usually use this product on my waterline. It doesn't fade or get gross throughout the day like most liners. And even when I decide to use it on my top lid, it doesn't fade or transfer at all.
The only thing that could possibly be better is that this eyeliner isn't really great for smudging. I mean, you can smudge it, but it takes a bit of extra effort.
Overall, this is probably my favorite eyeliner ever. Nothing much else to say.

The eyeliner I bought is the crayon one, which uses a sharpener. This is the best pencil liner I've used so far, it's so creamy and yet stays put.

Brilliant eyeliner, the beest I have found so far. I have pretty oily eyelids, and this stays on with minimal smudging. The pigmentation is amazing, and application is also very smooth and easy. The downsides would be that there are soo little product, and sharpening it is very messy. The price is also way up there. I bought this for around 12 bucks in a pack with the revlon growluscious mascara, which is another amazing product. Since it is a drugstore product, I suggest waiting for a sale!

it sets perfectly , not smugged ( most of pencil type liner is smugged easily even they say it's waterproof)
I bought black brown color. color is so nice
much cheeper and works much better compared with high-end products.

honestly I was disappointed with liquid colorstay eyeliner so I didn't expect about this one that much. but
this one is really good.

Not bad. But I wouldn't buy again cause there are many better products that is worth trying. It is quite lasting but it doesn't go on smooth and it tugs your eyelids a bit if you aren't gentle.
maybe heat it up to soften it a little before applying? but of course most people don't really have the time. which is why it would be better to just try other eyeliners.
But its not bad.
The packaging? its kinda weak. The plastic for mine started breaking after a while.
Its really thin and skinny.

I went thru a 6 month phase in which I started using eyeliner and had a few requirements for my product (in random order):


1. must be inexpensive and easily found in many retailers
2. must be long wearing and not morph into raccoon eyes
3. must not pull on my eye when applying
4. must not make my eyes water


This meets all my criteria + it is easily smudgable if I decide I don't want a crisp line. I have Black/Brown and Blackberry and both look quite nice on blue/gray eyes w/ NC 15 skin.


Now, I use occasionally whenever the mood strikes me and I don't have the urge to go out and try other eyeliners = I"m quite satisfied w/ this one. :)

Bought Brown after seeing the glorious reviews on here for this liner. I am (well, was) a huge fan of retractable liners. I found them convenient and easy, but an issue I had was that it wouldn't stick. Well, this liner gets raves for how long it lasts and I don't know why it doesn't work for me as it does on everyone else! It doesn't go on very smoothly, but I made application work as best as I could. However, although I only applied to my top lid it would transfer onto under my eyes by the end of the day. Frustrating. I've since moved onto gel liner and am way happier.

I love this eyeliner! I used to only use UD 24/7 liner in Zero but this one works just as well and is way cheaper. Also, this liner doesn't need to be sharpened in order for more product to come out because it's twisty, unlike the 24/7, which is great because I'm lazy. And for those who like to sharpen pencils in order to get a precise line, the liner comes with a little sharpener at the end up the pencil. Most importantly, this liner has really good staying power. But, like most, this doesn't last very long on the waterline or tight line. Anyway, this is pretty much my HG liner because it's a lazy girl's best friend.

I have used this eyeliner for the last couple years. I am happy with it however it tends to smudge by the end of the day. I coat it on pretty heavily under my eyes and it often leaks/smears on the corners. I am on the lookout for a more durable eyeliner but i am happy to continue using it until then. Good value for money if purchased over Ebay (slightly cheaper). I use the blackest black.
Hope that helps :)

This is the best eyeliner I have ever tried! Its better than MAC technakohl! It lasts a long time it doesn't smudge but if you smudge it on purpose it lasts! I will definetly buy it again!

Am I the only one who can't even get the stupid thing to apply?!

EDIT: Okay, I used my dad's lighter to melt the sucker.

It now applies easily enough. Still sticks a little and I have to go over two or three times to get it dark enough. Definitely an improvement from not applying at all. It lasts for about six hours and then starts to flake and smudge. I'll repurchase because, hey, at least it stays perfectly for that long.

I used to use Covergirl Perfect Point eyeliner until i found this and decided i'd give it a try. I'm really glad that i did. It doesn't smudge anywhere near as bad as my CG eyeliner. I use it in black/brown and it makes my eyes really stand out. Love it!
