Most Helpful Positive Review Bring it Back !!! :) I've been using this for years! I can't find a color that compares! It's gone everywhere ! I swear this color had a following !!! Please put it back on the shelves !
Most Helpful Critical Review Terrible Mascara This is one of the worst eyeliners I have ever used. The color of it is very rich and black, but that is the only good thing about it. I used it to tightline my upper lash line, and for the rest of the day it is literally smudging off onto my undereye area. I have rarely used any products in my life that give 'raccoon eyes.'I even tried putting UDPP (eye shadow primer) under my eyes and a lot of eyeshadow to try and keep it in place, but NOTHING helps. Really disappointing because I tend to like Maybelline products a lot. This eyeliner is terrible, terrible, terrible. I'm going to just end up throwing it out.

Kc2020 from Los Angeles, CA
I wish I would have read reviews before purchasing. Purchased the other day for the first time and was excited to put it on for work... an hour or so later when I noticed my reflection and I looked like a melted raccoon!! I was so embarrassed and the more I tried to remove the worse it got. I had only applied a small line to my upper lid and somehow it got all over my under eye. Even after getting home and using makeup remover I'm having a hard time removing all the smudging. So disappointed and hoping to be refunded. Definitely not using it again.
Nice and Smooth 5
Feshejo from Michigan
This pencil is perfect! It glides. It leaves a nice dark line the first time, but you can double back if you like, for a darker line.
Best eyeliner color of all times 5
SPC_inc from Maryland
I love how this eyeliner contrast with brown eyes.
Pigmented but horrible. 1
JillianFaith from undisclosed
I bought this because my tarte maneater was running low....and it's bad. I love the pigment of it but it's so smudgy upon application I have to constantly look in the mirror just to be sure I'm raccoon free.
good color, smudges a lot :\ 2
Lone Wolfie from Minnesota
it goes on super smooth but you cant touch your eye or else you look like a raccoon
The only thing I use! 5

Like many others, I am older and have loved this eyeliner pencil for years. Now I can't find the product or a color that is similar. There isn't anything out there like it - PLEASE bring this line back to our stores!
Smears everywhere! 1
Megatron from undisclosed
Advertised as smudge proof, yet I've never had a product smudge so much!! It makes a mess and comes off of you barely tap it.
Smears too much 1
suheid15 from Long Beach, CA
I have tried everything, setting it with dark eye shadow, but it just smears too much! I put it on and I look like I slept or took a shower with it on.
Love this and use it everyday! 5
GMR from Dallas TX
Can use to line eye inside and out
PERFECT! 5
FarmMom from Midwest
I have used 2 or 3 colors for years! Easy to use, smudges easily with the soft tip to soften the look for adult women! Now I cant find 2 of the 3 shades I use! I have now bought several other Maybelline eye liners and none compare and I would return them if I could! Chestnut brown and Brownish Black are the best for women who are not trying to look like they are teens!
I would buy this product again. 5
Nurse purtie from Texas
Very nice and smooth.
Love it! 5
Thefox from New Zealand
I really WANT my eyeliner to smudge a bit. Others cake but this goes on smoothly. I can only use the slate gray, however, which is certainly black enough fo me. I wish Mabelline would make a navy blue! But the smudging softens the look.
smudged 3
AngelM from Bristol, CT
Goes on easy but be sure not to touch it or rub your eyes or it will smear.
The black is awful, the brown isn't bad. 3
Lyia V from Tatum, TX
The black color is AWFUL. Do not buy the black! The brownish-black, however, isn't so bad. It is easier to apply than the black and lasts all day. I like that I can use the sponge on the other end to smudge it into a more "smoky" look and then use the sponge on my bottom lash line to smudge a little bit of the color there too.
it's ok 3

It's ok, not the best
Worst Maybelline product there is 1
Katie_girl73 from Michigan
I bought this for the first time about a week ago and I'm trying to give it the benefit of the doubt, but no matter what I do or which eyelids this is on, it's smudges like nothing I've ever used before. I don't touch my eyes after I do my makeup, there's no reason for it to smudge.

SMUDGES LIKE ANYTHING 1
Yolo from Seattle
Very bad product even for such a good brand I mean it's not even worth the money if I wipe it even a little or touch it it comes off and doesn't stay for more than 2 hrs . Please do me a favour and remove this product off the market
I love this liner... 5

Dee from North Charleston, SC
Though this product is very pigmented and glides on super easily, it's so oily/greasy that it smears all over the place. The liner never sets to stay in place on the eyes, even if you go over it with eyeshadow to try to help lock it in. Since Maybelline is not cruelty free so I no longer support the brand. I wish they would make the switch, but they care more about making money than they do about harming animals by selling their products in China.
Does what is supposed to do! 5
TT from Chillicothe, OH
This product is dependable. Just does what it should without any hassle. I've used it for years.
Disappointed 1
Kathy76 from Kansa
I use To wear this eyeliner all the time. I had been using a different brand and decided to go back to the Maybelline because of the cost. I am so disappointed. It smears and doesn't last. It's going in the trash. Waste of money.
The best eyeliner 4
gifthorse from New York
The chestnut brown was the only color made by any company that worked with reddish blond hair. Bring it back. Smooth to apply and lasted for the day. Easy to remove.
Best ever eyeliner 5
Working Gal from San Antonio, Texas
I use it everyday. Fast and easy to put on.
I'm so disappointed! 1
angjean from Nebraska
I love Maybelline products and have been using them for years but I'm so disappointed in this eyeliner. I'm all for an eyeliner that can be easily smudged for a smokey look but this comes off too easily and I constantly have to check my eyes in the mirror to wipe off liner that migrated away from my eye area. By the end of the day it looks like I didn't put any on. Hopefully it can be improved. Until then I'll have to try another liner!
