I miss the dark green!
I love the espresso eyeliner. It locks in place and stays all day. There used to be a dark green shade in this eyeliner that I really miss! It was my go to eyeliner for my green eyes. I wish you would bring back the dark green!

Only got to use this once
I only got to use this one time because the tip broke off.
Stay & Play indeed!!
Ok so if you want a gel liner thats pigmented, glides easy on the waterline and stays put then this is the one. It stays on until you take it off. Leaving only 4 stars due to its stubborn to remove but definitely worth it if you need something that lasts
Works great!
It goes on smoothly and stays all day like you just put it on.
I would totally buy it again and recommend it to my friends
The eyeliner goes on so smoothly and lasts all day. I love it!
Best Affordably Eyeliner!

Essence's Stay and Play Gel Eyeliner is EASILY the best affordable eyeliner on the market and possibly one of the best eyeliners, hands-down. The pencil format means the formula is firm enough to not leak or be runny but it also isn't super tacky or crumbly. Oftentimes, pencil eyeliners can get kind of dry (I'm looking at you, Ulta branded eyeliners), which is not the case here. The product can be smudged out for a more smokey look but also "dries" down quickly. This is genuinely my holy grail of affordably eyeliners and my ONLY complaint is that Essence hasn't put out one in every color yet.
