First swipe and I was SOLD. This eyeliner glides on like butter—no tugging, no skipping, just a velvety line of rich brown that makes my hazel eyes pop. I tightlined at 7AM before a sweaty spin class, and by noon? Zero raccoon eyes. That’s sorcery for someone with oily lids.
But here’s the drama: sharpening this pencil feels like defusing a bomb. The first time it snapped mid-sharpen, I nearly cried over wasted product. Pro tip? Use Revlon’s universal sharpener (not L’Oreal’s own!) and *gently* twist. Still loses half its length, but the payoff—that creamy, fade-proof color—keeps me coming back.
Real talk though—skip the waterline. It stays put TOO well, leaving me with ‘sleep-deprived vampire’ vibes by hour 3. But for winged liner? Chef’s kiss. Survived a beach wedding (87°F + margaritas) without budging. Just bring oil-based remover—this stuff laughs at micellar water.
Worth the hassle? For $8 and this level of pigment endurance? Absolutely. But maybe buy two—one for using, one for sharpening practice.
