Sadly let down by this liner.
I wanted to like this eyeliner pen, I really did...but I just couldn't. If you can get it for super cheap or almost free, it might be worth your time, but only if you don't have watery eyes AT ALL.<br /><br />I have several issues with this eyeliner:<br /><br />1. It isn't labeled as waterproof so I wasn't expecting it to be such, but I was expecting "water resistant". I mean, eyes are WET, and this product is meant to draw an artistic line on the eye area. Nope, it melted right off the second my eye got the slightest amount of dampness in the corner. Wing disappeared almost completely within 5 minutes of application on one eye.<br /><br />2. The color dries a bit more muted than the actual color appears to look upon first inspection. The plastic housing the felt eyeliner is a very vivid and bright blue, so I expected the product to be similar in color. As I drew it on my eyelid, it appeared very bright...but sadly dried down to a deeper and less bold shade of blue. I didn't want one shade lighter than "navy", I wanted a color that would truly stand out.<br /><br />3. If you miss a spot and have to go over an area that already has eyeliner, expect to have to redo the entire eye. Touching up a small area removes all of the color from the surrounding areas where the brush even gently grazes. Get it right the first time or redo the entire eye, there is NO layering with this brush eyeliner. Most of my liquid eyeliners are a bit more forgiving in this area.<br /><br />So bottom line...not what I hoped for. I expected more from a major brand like Too Faced. I guess there is a reason why it has been discontinued and is almost being given away with such a cheap price. The idea is nice...it looks like a writing pen. You can even put it in your shirt pocket like one, and it's adorable packaging. You may have more luck if you have very dry eyes, or if you want to use it as a bottom lash eyeliner...but don't expect to make fine-lined wings or artistic designs with it. I have ultra cheap Wet N Wild eyeliner with far more staying power.
