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 Skip The Waitlist
This eyeliner does not smudge or transfer, I love it so much. I have the "skip the waitlist" which is perfect for under the lower lashes as a subtle definition. There are some great bold colors in this line but I really really wish there were some more subtle colors like a lighter moss green, a grey-toned purple, and a gray-blue for the lower lash line. I'd also love a denim blue (in the pool shark category of tone) for the upper lashline, because stay the night is too dark to see the blue, and perpetual shock is a bit too bright.
I love it
I love it it works the way i expected it to and it goes on so easily definitely worth the price
