    Hands down, Best Eyeliner I've Ever Tried. Unless you are going to get permanent makeup tattooed on your eyes, I would not recommend anything else.

    I have sensitive eyes and this does not bother me. I have oily eyelids and this does not run nearly as much as anything else I've tried (I do use the waterproof version however). I apply it expertly in the morning (doing my cat eyes with the brush), then basically forget about it for the rest of the day. I have even gotten 2 days of wear with this product before, with just a touch-up in the morning (although I can't condone this behavior - it's bad for your eyes and make-up will get all over your pillowcase!). This is a great, long-lasting eyeliner.

    Beware: this product is for those who are comfortable applying eyeliner with a brush. If you have shaky hands and prefer a simple pencil line, this probably isn't for you. But if you are a precise perfectionist like me with a steady hand, seeking a pointed line you can really define, then go for this product. It will really last, sot the price is amazing for what it is (I had my last pot for literally over a year - there was still some left before I finally replaced it for sanitary reasons).

    Just be careful to work quickly with this and wipe all smudges as soon as they appear, as the product is not easy to remove once it's set. Admittedly it's not the easiest to remove - I usually dab my eyes with olive oil on a cotton pad, let it sit a few minutes, then carefully wipe it off - but this is a worthwhile compromise for a great long-lasting eyeliner.

    This is absolutely waterproof. That being said, it is not oil proof, I used this on a really hot day, and it stayed...but it also smudged, even when I put powder eyeshadow over it. I think that this might be more conducive to the waterline, as it stayed really well, due to the pigmentation, but on a day that your eyelids might be oily, you're going to need the full eye prep: primer, this, shadow - and even so, after 6 hours it might smudge. All in all, not bad. The product itself does dry out though, but microwaving it will fix that, and its still usable when it dries a little.

    I am totally impressed with this product. I purchased this a couple months ago and I am still using it till this day. I find that this does exactly what it claims to do. It is long lasting and I had no issues smudging. I found that this product was easy to work with also and glides on smoothly. It lasts me at least 7 to 9 hours before I notice any smudging which is great and I like to mention I have sensitive eyes and it did not irritate my eyes at all.

    I would recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a really good quality gel eyeliner and wants something quite affordable. I swear by this product!

    You can find this at your local drugstore, walmart and target for around 8 to 10 dollars!

    P.S. It takes practise to get a good application, especially if you don't have much experience applying gel/cream eyeliner products!

    This eyeliner goes on smooth, but my problem was how long it took to dry. My lashes tend to mess up liquid eyeliner, so this sounded like a good compromise. When I have the time to invest the effort, it's a good eyeliner.

    AMAZING PRODUCT!!!! It goes on so smoothly and doesn't run. It stays put and doesn't smudge too badly. I would recommend using a better brush than the one it comes with. That brush sucks!

    I hate this eyeliner. The brush that it comes with is horrible and applies the get very clumpy on the eyes. It is not easy to use and even though I cleaned the brush after every use it still got very sticky and nearly impossible to use. Don't waste your money.
