Chanel Ebene, Cassis, Brun Agape Stylo Yeux Eyeliners Reviews & Swatches
Ebene (10)
Chanel Ebene (10) Stylo Yeux Waterproof Long-Lasting Eyeliner ($34.00 for 0.01 oz.) is a medium-dark black with neutral undertones and a matte finish. The texture was smooth, lightly creamy–enough not to tug during application–and adhered well to the lower lash line as well as my waterline. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that lasted well for nine hours before showing signs of thinning/fading.

Formula Overview
$34.00/0.01 oz. - $3400.00 Per Ounce
The Stylo Yeux formula is supposed to be a “waterproof, smudge-proof” eyeliner with a “gentle, soft” texture. I gave up on this formula bit ago, as the majority of shades I had tried had a really firm, stiff, and painful-to-use texture, but new releases have much improved!
They are much, much creamier without being too wet, so they didn’t transfer or migrate easily. The formula was easy (and not painful!) to use even on my waterline. The eyeliners lasted nine hours or more on me.

Cassis (83)
Chanel Cassis (83) Stylo Yeux Waterproof Long-Lasting Eyeliner ($34.00 for 0.01 oz.) is a deep plum with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. I found it applied slightly more evenly and smoothly in practice than when I swatched, though it wasn’t the smoothest or creamiest formula to work with, so it did tug somewhat. It had more semi-sheer to medium, somewhat buildable coverage that stayed on decently for eight hours.

Brun Agape (943)
Chanel Brun Agape (943) Stylo Yeux Waterproof Long-Lasting Eyeliner ($34.00 for 0.01 oz.) is a medium-dark brown with subtle, warm undertones and a pearl finish. It had opaque color coverage in a single pass, which was easy to apply in a smooth, fluid motion or built up with shorter, overlapping strokes against the lower lash line. The texture was smooth, lightly creamy but quick to set, which ensured it didn’t gravitate toward fine lines as it was setting. It wore well for nine hours before fading visibly.

Brun Agape is lovely looking, but incredibly easy to dupe in less costly formulas like, Urban Decay or even Sephora’s house brand.
The other two, I definitely already have excellent dupes for. Sephora Contour Pencil in Sangria is far nicer and easier to apply than Cassis!
Brun Agape is pretty!
When i looked at the dupes for Cassis, it seems other brands also struggle with this lovely shade. The brown shade is pretty, but as Nancy said above, lots of less expensive and equally as good dupes around.
Cassis could have been so beautiful, but with the issues it has I’m not going to buy it. Brun Agape is gorgeous, but it’s so dupable.
I also find $34 too much to pay for an eye liner. It should have to be so unique, apply like a dream and last for days for me to buy it. 🙂
I knew Cassis reminded me of another Chanel.. Grenat which I have and also Sephora Sangria. Covered.
Brun Agape is beautiful too.. dupeable, but still I am tempted as I love the formula for its durability. I see Sephora Cocoa, another formula I like, is similar, but does not have quite as much spark. Debating this..
