Smooth Application and Intense Color

Thanks to its creamy texture, this eyeliner glides effortlessly across your eyelid. You barely need to apply any pressure to get a clean, deep black line. The 'Black Sparkle' shade adds fine glitter particles, creating a vibrant look that stands out from basic black.

Waterproof Performance in Practice

The waterproof claim holds up well; once set, the eyeliner stays put even through rain or an active day. Keep in mind that you will need a gentle oil-based makeup remover to completely wash it off at the end of the day.

Usability and Maintenance

Because the pencil is so soft, the tip wears down quickly. You will need to sharpen it frequently to maintain a precise line. Use a high-quality cosmetic sharpener to prevent the soft core from breaking or getting stuck.

Frequently asked questions

Is this eyeliner suitable for sensitive eyes?

Yes, the formula is dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested, but be cautious with the glitter particles near the waterline if your eyes are highly sensitive.

What is the best way to remove this waterproof eyeliner?

Since the formula is waterproof, we recommend using a dual-phase, oil-based eye makeup remover to gently and effectively dissolve it.

Do you twist this pencil up or sharpen it?

This is a traditional pencil that requires sharpening with a standard cosmetic pencil sharpener.
