Did you change the packaging where all the caps are black? Now it's impossible to determine which color is which. Dumb idea.
- Asked by Charley
- Official Answer By Revlon Cosmetics - BEBlack caps were being used instead of the color match caps which was due to supply chain issues driving the change in caps but only for a limited period of time. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. Was this answer helpful to you

the product is very good, the only thing is i need to keep sharpening it with the included sharpener. the sharpener works well for only a few uses, then it starts to stop working and the tip of the eyeliner breaks inside of the sharpener. no matter i clean it out, the sharpener still doesn't work. how do i fix this??

Best I've tried
I gave this 5 stars because it has such a nice range of colors, it isn't pricey and it stays put most of the time depending on the color. I've been using this eyeliner for years and it's really all I buy because I've tried other all day eye liners and they always are gel and run or liquid which I do...

Disappointed
Have used this eyeliner for several years with great results but the last one I bought broke as soon as I opened it and twice more, feels much softer than usual and messy to use.

Easy to make a wing
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The tip is very precise and I love the navy blue black color. Gives my brown eyes a nice pop. Don't understand the purpose of blender though because I don't think it's needed. Used for a festival and it stayed on for almost 5-6 hours
An amazing eyeliner
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I am absolutely in love with this Navy eyeliner from Revlon. The eyeliner applies smoothly and evenly and lasts all day. I can't wait to try additional shades in the ColorStay line.

Crazy staying power
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This eyeliner is no joke when it comes to staying put! The color payoff is great; the white is pretty pigmented and shows up well on my skin. The description mentions a "smooth, creamy glide," and while it does go on, I found it a little waxy and chalky in texture, so it took a little bit of effort to get a solid, even line. It's not the smoothest application I've ever experienced, but once it's on, it's ON. And I mean that literally. This eyeliner is waterproof, transfer-proof, and basically life-proof. It is EXTREMELY hard to remove, which is a testament to its long-lasting power. I tried washing it off with my regular cleanser, and it barely budged. You will absolutely need a dedicated waterproof makeup remover, an oil-based one, to get this off at the end of the day. This would be the perfect eyeliner for a day at the waterpark or a long, sweaty concert—it's not going anywhere. The staying power is seriously impressive. Given the price point, the quality is what I would expect. It's not a luxury formula, but it delivers on its promise of being long-wearing and waterproof. So, if you're looking for a budget-friendly eyeliner that will survive anything, this is it! Just be prepared to put in the work to take it off.

Bold color that stays put!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Love this eyeliner! The Grape shade is a fun pop of color that glides on smoothly and stays all day without smudging. Super easy to apply, and the built-in smudger is great for a softer look. Waterproof, transfer-proof, and totally reliable!

A good white for the waterline
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The packaging isn't the best but you can never go wrong with a white pencil! It makes your eyes pop when you need that quick little something. I usually have a problem with my waterline getting all messy but this ones stays put!
