ColourPop Go NY Go Eyeliner Duo Review & Swatches
Go NY Go
ColourPop Go NY Go Crème Gel Liner Duo ($14.00 for 0.02 oz.) includes a matte cobalt eyeliner and a shimmery orange eyeliner. I have found this formula to be inconsistent, and this duo was no exception, unfortunately! Rucker Park was just terrible.

Rucker Park
Rucker Park is a bright cobalt blue with strong, cool undertones and a matte finish. It had a dry, stiff consistency that was prone to breaking at the tip each time I attempted to apply it. It had medium color coverage in one layer, did not build up (actually seemed to look worse as it dragged coverage around and made it look more uneven), and tugged painfully at my lash line. It lasted well for seven hours before fading visibly. It stayed on well for eight hours before fading a bit.

Formula Overview
$7.00/0.007 oz. - $1000.00 Per Ounce
The updated formula is supposed to have "18-hour" wear that is waterproof and be "super pigmented" for both the lash line as well as the waterline. The brand stated that the formula will set "after around 10 seconds." Many shades had semi-opaque to opaque, buildable coverage, but some shades had uneven, sheerer coverage that did not layer well, so they were more challenging to apply and to use.
The majority of shades were creamy enough to glide across the lash line without tugging or pulling, though a few shades were stiffer, more prone to breaking or dragging.
The formula seemed water-resistant based on testing with water, but the wear was more like 10 to 13 hours (depending on the shade) rather than 18 hours of solid wear. A lot of the shimmer shades lasted four to six hours on the waterline, while more matte shades tended to last five to seven hours on my waterline. These are long-wearing times for a pencil eyeliner, generally, but they are a fair bit short of the 18-hours claimed so a lot of shades rated lower than they might seem if you aren't a stickler for 18-hour wear!

Yep – truly awful.
Rucker Park is one major travesty of an eye pencil made to rep NYC. This fail on CP’s part just plain hurts.
I’m always drawn to the electric blue eyeliners so I was waiting for your review on this. I’m quite surprised it is so poor in quality considering Colourpop’s reputation with their other products. It’s not like I really needed another eyeliner but it’s nice to have different choices.
