Formula Overview

$9.99/0.04 oz. - $249.75 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have up to "36-hour" wear that is "waterproof, smudge-resistant, sebum-resistant, and fade-resistant" and pigmentation that has "intense" coverage in "one stroke." This is how the product is marketed, so the ratings are based on these factors.

I definitely did not get 36 hours of wear, and my rating system cringed at the thought of it, since effectively all the shades will be rated significantly downward just because of that one over-the-top claim. I found the formula to be long-wearing and often lasting 12 hours with about ~75% product intact (thinned/faded but not smudged), which made it one of the longer-wearing pencil eyeliners I've tried overall. There was still enough visible product on my lower lash line to know I was wearing eyeliner for some shades as long as 16 hours, but it definitely wasn't good wear to that length of time.

They were typically pigmented, creamy enough to glide on readily but not to the point where the product gathered into fine lines while it set. I would agree that the formula was waterproof, smudge- and fade-resistant as well.
