Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner

By Ari 6 years ago.

Winged black liquid liner is part of my every day look, and I've tried so many. I expect relative ease of application, deep and intense pigmentation, an applicator and formula that allow for sharp, crisp lines, and overall durability--a bit of fading over the course of the day is acceptable, but if an eyeliner smudges between when I've left the house in the morning and when I remove it at day's end, I'm not likely to want to use it again. I've had my wings hold up through weekend long active events and the ability to wear for that long is a requirement if an eyeliner's to become a new favorite. This eyeliner does all of this better than any other I've tried. I had been quite happy with Nyx Epic Ink liner for some time, but this is a few orders of magnitude better across all of my criteria. The higher price hurts--there is a lot of product in this pen and it holds up well, but I also go through eyeliner faster than any other product, so it is only because this eyeliner is well and truly exceptional (at least as it performs on me) that I consider it worth it every time.

Stila's black liner is absolutely perfect. So I regret to say that if you're looking for a brown one that performs the same.... this is not that product. It bears absolutely no resemblance to the black liner in performance, vibrancy, staying power, or product longevity. When I opened it, I was a little surprised at how "light" the brown is - it's not really brown black, it's really a medium-toned lighter brown color. The line isn't very opaque when you draw with it, which is a huge issue. It also quickly fades even more on my eyes through the day. I used this pen until it was totally gone and it just got more and more faded. Just not a very good product, which is a shame since the black one nails it.
