Awesome 24 hr Duration Pencil
The MAC color excess pencil the name of the color is glide or die as rich black color. It has the consistency of a gel. Feels like a crayon when you glided over your lid. The black color is the richest I have seen and it's very bold. This is a twist type of pencil that you can twist to give you more...

Looks great on the waterline
Pros: Color payoff is great. Gentle on the skin and even though it took a little work, it did apply and stay on the waterline. Doesn't smudge too much which is great, but also means it's not blendable. Cons: the product can be a little thick if you want to apply enough to be bold on the waterline...

Comments about Glide Or Die
I love this liner. I have it in 2 colors: Glide or Die and Skip the Waitlist. The product applies smoothly, doesn't streak or drag and when it is on the lid? Stays PUT. No smudging like I have experienced with the eye kohl. With that being said, it is not as easy to blend/make "blurred" like the eye kohl, rather being ideal for making smooth, stay put lines. Can also use in the waterline!
Love this product
Love it easy to put on

Comments about Sick Tat Bro
Two major promises with this eyeliner that aren't delivered - glide on is a joke and 12 hour water line is just a lie. This was like putting crayon on my eyelid. I love the eye kohl because it does glide on but it isn't long lasting so I tried this. It's very dry so it doesn't glide. You have to keep going over the same area to get the look you want. Secondly, I wanted the 12 hour water line and this started to fade in certain spots within 10 mins. You end up with very uneven liner on your water line. It does seem like it will last on your eyelid as it was very hard to get off with make up remover.
I had to get the brown because you were out of the black
Wanted black
