NARS Larger Than Life Long-Wear Eyeliner

What it is:A dramatic and intense 12-hour eyeliner. What it does:NARS Larger Than Life Long-Wear Eyeliner takes liner to the next level. Designed with a retractable applicator and built-in sharpener, this liner has a rich, creamy color that glides on smoothly with a completely budge-proof finish. Its incomparable wear lasts for 12 hours without smearing or caking. What else you need to know:The deeply dramatic shades are named for the most iconic streets in the world. Try the rich copper brown of "Via Appia," "Abbey Road's" unabashed iridescent turquoise, or the sleek slate gray of "Madison Avenue." Start your day in one color's namesake city and end it in another with your liner maintaining absolute intensity. This product has been ophthalmologist tested.

Quick Take: waterproof, long wearing, smudgable
I rally love this eyeliner, it lasts all day. I have an oily face and oily eyelids and it's hard to find a good liner that won't give me panda eyes later in the day. I do put a little on my bottom lash line and am able to smudge it out a bit but over all it stays put all day. The only problem I have is when I mess up and cannot get it off to reapply. It is hard to remove at the end of the day but I use Lush's ultrabland and it comes right off.

I have Rue Bonaparte and I use it in the inner line. It produces an "awekening effect" and lasts all day.

A really really nice pencil eyeliner!
I use it everyday and the color selections are great.
I'm planning to get a second one after I'm almost done with the purple eyeliner I got.

Quick Take: long wearing
I like this eyeliner, I do, but I think for the price it should be really great and it's not. It's above average and really expensive. I will wear this but not replace it.

Quick Take: long wearing, smudgable
Just got Barrow Street and its a lovely minty color. This liner goes on smooth like butter and its stays well. I managed to put it on at 8 am and when I walked in the door you could still see the color at 6 pm. The waterline does seem to need a reapplication (especially now with the spring allergies and watery eyes) but I really like this. Will definitely purchase in other colors.

I love how it glides on and the way it looks. Sadly, for me it's not waterproof. It does smear at the end of the day and I do not rub my eyes. Perhaps my eyes are a little bit more watery than most. I returned it because I feel $24 is not worth it if it's not completely waterproof. Other than that, I would have absolutely loved it.

This eyeliner will really stays on my water line, which is exactly what I bought it for. The color is rich, and the color doesn't disappear during the day. The only complaint I would have is that it can get a little clump with time, but overall, I'm very pleased.

Easy use, hard to sharpen
-05.05.13
Quick Take: waterproof, long wearing
Great pencil, doesnt smudge, especially compared to Urban Decay.
But the tip can get too wide sometime, and the built-in sharpener is not that easy to use, can break off the tip someetimes (because it only sharpens the tip, not the pencil)
I only got the black one, but I think this pencil is better with the other colors, when you want some accent on our eyes.

best
-05.04.13
Quick Take: waterproof, long wearing, smudgable, can get a tight fine line to upper lash
This is the best if you want truly non budging...also it has a hard component which is imperative to me to get as finest line as close to my upper lash line. If eyeliner is too soft or the point too big, I can't get a fine line and it also smudges or plops out as it goes. SO LOVE THIS! Appia is a dark brown with copper sparkle, and rue st honore is a gorgeous dark navy with a cobalt sparkle. These are my two favs for my blue eyes.

My favourite
-05.03.13
Quick Take: waterproof, long wearing
I have tried many eyeliners that claim to be waterproof and long lasting, but did not deliver the results. This is definitely the best eyeliner I have used. I was recommended this eyeliner by a sales associate and bought it in St. Marks Place. Definitely going to go back to buy some of the other colours.
I love how the colour is really pigmented and that it can last all day without touch ups. I also like how it's retractable, goes on smoothly and easy to use. Although there's the option to sharpen it, I found that I didn't need to. I've worn this eyeliner when at the gym or out at night and I've never had any problems with smudging, fading or flaking.

new fave
-05.02.13
Quick Take: waterproof, long wearing
this is my NEW favorite pencil eyeliner .. and i've tried A LOT. i was recommended this by a stylist when i was looking for a new pencil to use after i was beginning to not really like the lancome waterproof pencil eyeliner.
i was SOLD the minute i began to use this. it goes on DARK, lasts ALL day, and the pencil has a pretty long life for a pencil. the thing i like most about it is that its a twist top, so you don't HAVE to sharpen the edge if you don't want to. they give you within the cap of the pencil to sharpen, but i usually am okay with not really using it because i use my liquid liner to make precise lines. i use this mainly to line my water line and create a smokey, soft black look.

I've never purchase "expensive" makeup before Sony was skeptical it would be any better than any other makeup. Boy was I wrong. The black has a nice deep color that lasts all day even on my waterline which rarely ever happens. Love NARS!

When I wear this simple black colour, I get compliments and it just looks amazing. It really makes my eyes pop when I do a smoky eye. I know there's black pencils out there, however, this one is an 11 on a 10 scale. I love NARS!

I really love this colour! It blends really well and it looks amazing. I had been looking for just the right shade of a copper - brown colour and viola! The only thing I have a hard time with - the pencil sharpening. I didn't know you twist and the sharper is just for the point.
