Very good Gel eyeliner
I was very surprised at how good this gel eyeliner was. I would compare it easily to the higher end brand of gel eyeliners. It goes on very smooth (great for mature eyes) and it stays on the eyelid very well.
Enjoying
So far loveing it, no smudging and very flattering on brown eyes
Loved the color
The color was exactly what I was looking for but it was impossible to sharpen the pencil to a point after each use.
surprised
I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this eyeliner. I've been super into colored eyeliners here recently and just bought 8 different ones from Ulta and swatched them all on the back of my hand and the stardust color is staying just as well as the nyx epic wear colors I got.
LOVE IT BUT
Love these pencils but the sharpening is terrible. I end up only able to use it til the tip wears down, and once i start sharpening it the entire pencil is good for nothing.
