The verdict…
This liner claims to be quick-drying and easy to apply. It also claims to be a long-lasting formula and smudge proof. I have to admit that I haven’t had much experience with liquid eyeliners. The only time Ive ever used it, someone else has applied it for me.
As a first time user, I found this eyeliner particularly easy to use. The smooth curvature of the plastic grip fits comfortably into my hand and allows for controlled movement of the sponge tip, producing a smoothly defined line.
When I first used it, because of my very fine eyelashes, I noticed the black lining seemed to overwhelm the rest of my eye. I found myself then needing to apply mascara in order to match my lashes to the eyeliner’s effect. For a milder effect, I tried to apply a thinner line, but it did not seem to last the entire day or produced a rougher, uneven line.
With a full application, I was pretty impressed with its durability, especially over two of the trial days when I wore it through weather that was both windy and rainy.
To be honest, I probably wouldn’t buy this again because I cant see myself using liquid eyeliner on a regular basis. I dont feel I have the time in the morning to apply both liquid eyeliner and mascara. Under time constraints, given a choice between the two, I would probably choose to use just the mascara.

Great for teens. not so much a fan anymore.
I actually find it harder to apply with these eyeliners
Wow this goes back a long time.
An affordable fun product.
Sometimes I like using a stiffer brush like this one.
I usually blot over a little eyeshadow over it, as the black line can look really ageing
