Lionfish is so pretty
-05.18.13
Quick Take: waterproof, long wearing
Lionfish is a great, bronzey color for blue eyes. Goes on so creamy, but lasts forever. Love that I don't have to sharpen this or worry about a brush. This is dark enough for the top lashline, but easily smudged to work for the bottom as well.

Best pencil liner
-05.14.13
Quick Take: waterproof, smudgable, long wearing, good value, good formula
These are the only pencil liners that wont budge on me! I love them. All other liners inevitably migrate into the coroner of my eyes and slide around and just look bad in general. But these liners stay put as long as I need them to.

Best Liner Ever!
-05.14.13
Quick Take: waterproof, long wearing
This is my favorite eye liner on the market! It's super long wearing, totally bullet proof once it sets, smooth and silky to apply, the color you see is the color you get... I would not change a thing about this liner! Once applied, you have about a minute to play with it and smudge it or blend it, then it sets and stays put until you take it off.

Nice colors no staying power
-05.14.13
Quick Take: not for oily skinned people
I tried the metallic brown color on in the Sephora store. Shopped around. Looked in the mirror 20 mins. later, smudge city. Too bad, the colors are really nice. The same thing happened with the Urban Decay 24/7 pencils. I normally do have to put a specific liquid liner (cannot mention brand names Sephora does not carry or your review gets deleted) on top of my pencilled eyeliner, because(1.) I cannot draw with a liquid liner without making mistakes, (2.)the pencils are more forgiving for mistakes (3.) there is no pencil as of yet that can be smudge proof for me.
I am looking to not have to put on a liquid liner, so I am still trying on many waterproof and or smudgeproof pencils. This one will not be purchased.

Not for me
-05.11.13
I didn't didn't like this product at all. It's too dry and takes too much pressure to apply. I was very disappointed because the colors are really pretty. I need something with a softer tip and is much, much more smudge-able.

smudge proof, lasts and pretty colors
-05.11.13
Quick Take: waterproof, long wearing, smudgable, not for waterline
My daughter loves this pencil. She uses on her upper lid and loves the color. It lasts and is waterproof and smudgable for upper lid. Not for waterline, stings and wears off quickly that's why only four stars.

Ho-hum
-05.10.13
Quick Take: smudgable
I am not the best with eyeliner, and I got this thinking that could be remedied. I was disappointed. It is great for thick lines, but not a more natural look. Found it smudged from my upper eye to my undereyes too readily, as well.

Nice Application, Color is Less Impressive
-05.08.13
I like the line, but the Empress color is very metallic and less white than anticipated. Does stay on all day and make eyes look wider/brighter.

Rip off but a good product
-05.07.13
I bought 5 of these at winners for 20 dollars the exact ones so this price now disgusts me. Great product though, really stays on your water line. I'm going to give this product one star because of the price.

Smudge stick - white
-05.07.13
I purchased this in the white for lining the inside of the water line. I apply one layer, finish my eye makeup, and then put a second layer, because by the time I am finished, half of it is gone or un-even. Now because I only use this in the water line, I am not sure if this "waterproof" applies just to when it is on eye lids or under eye on skin, but it does come off a little while I am applying my makeup, hence the need for a 2nd coat. This color is very white too, so if you are matching to go with the whites of your eyes, it is a brighter white.

Not waterproof

Quick Take: smudgable
I love the color and the ease of use, but this is not waterproof! It does disappears throughout the day and certainly cannot handle a sweaty yoga class!

all day wear!
-05.04.13
Quick Take: waterproof, smudgable, long wearing
I usually buy Urban Decay eyeliners, but these ones give UD a run for their money! They never need sharpening and are precise every time. The only thing is if I want an ever crisper line, I have to twist the tip with a tissue to get the point back. Otherwise, the color is amazing, it stays in place and are pretty long lasting. Definitely worth the purchase! My only suggestion would be that they add a little sharpener at the bottom to keep the tip pointed.
The liner is smudgeable but once it's set, it's not going anywhere. Easy to remove with Sephora brand waterproof eye makeup remover.

Lasts all day!
-05.01.13
Quick Take: waterproof, smudgable, long wearing
This liner is amazing. My friend and I both purchased the Lionfish color and we both adore it. I have always loved brown eyeliner with my brown eyes. This gives my eyes a richer quality that lasts all day.
This doesn't budge. At all. It goes on creamy, but once it sets you don't have to worry about fixing or reapplying. I usually blend it a little with an angled eyeliner brush too. I can't wait to try the other colors!

Love
-04.30.13
Quick Take: long wearing
I love this eyeliner! It lasts a very long time and hardly smudges. I love using it to tight line my lashes. I used this for the first time in Georgetown, DC as I was walking through shopping and it lasted me the entire day of drinking and shopping and walking all over the city. So I purchased a few other liners to test out like smashbox and a few drug store brands but this is by far my favorite!

Quick Take: smudgable, long wearing
I have blue eyes and I love the lionfish brown color. It makes my eyes pop without having to do a lot of work. It is easy to use and lasts all day. The glitter is nice to be able to dress up your eyes for some fancy occasions too!

As soon as i opened it, i tried twisting it up but it wouldn't even come up. Then, when it finally did, it wouldn't go down.

Quick Take: smudgable, great color and sparkle!
I really love the color, sparkle, and ease of application of this eyeliner! I bought it as a replacement for a discontinued Prescriptives eyeliner, and I love it. I am giving it three stars though, because there is barely any eyeliner in the tube! I do not wear this product every day, and it still ran out in less than a month. Sad face.
