The first time I bought this eyeliner I bought the regular black and really liked it, and while I felt like it faded kind of fast, it was better than anything else I'd tried. When I went to reorder a month or so later I noticed in the options for "black pro" for about a dollar more. I researched and asked questions trying to figure out the difference between the two and didn't have much luck. Since they're pretty cheap, I bought both to compare. Their packaging is absolutely identical (though the white inventory/barcode sticker does have a different name/number printed). When closed, the pens also look identical. Once you uncap them, there are subtle differences between the two with the pro version being a bit longer and looking like it might be better made. Honestly, at this point I expected that to be the only difference and figured the formulas would be the same. I did a quick swipe on my forearm, expecting them to go on identically. Immediately after swatching I thought the Black Pro version looked like it might have better pigmentation, and did a 2nd, thicker swatch on the back of my hand. I took pictures of both and went about my day. I took pictures of the swatches again about three hours later. On my forearm, you can definitely notice the regular version has faded a good bit. I didn't wash my arm at all during this time. The swatches on my hand blew me away though and really proved the difference for me. I'd washed my hands multiple times with regular soap and water over the intervening three hours and the regular version was sad looking while the Black Pro version still looked fresh. I actually had to seriously do some scrubbing to get it off that night because I didn't own waterproof makeup remover at the time. Haha I actually did the test/comparison about three months ago but never got around to posting the review. Since then, I've purchased the Black Pro several more times and it's been consistently great. Really, the only "con" I can find is the cap is really easy to split when putting it back on. The first time I split one I didn't realize it until it was prematurely dried out. I've already split the cap on my newest one, but luckily noticed immediately and reinforced it with some tape, so I think it'll hold up and not dry out now. I always order two at a time now because I don't want to risk running out and not having any on hand. It is the only eyeliner I use to do my wings now. I wish they'd make a matte version of this. I'd be in heaven for sure! Read more
I’m 57 and have issues keeping a steady hand. I’ve bought these a few times. Looks great, dries fast. Easy for us older shakes hands people. Read more
This double-headed eyeliner stamp is a total game changer if you struggle with getting those perfect winged eyeliners, like I used to. If you're tired of uneven wings and the frustration that comes with them, this might be exactly what you need. The design is super clever: one end has a stamp to create the perfect wing, and the other end is a fine-tip liner to finish off the look. It’s like they’ve thought of everything to make it easier. You simply stamp the wings on each side, then use the fine tip to connect and refine your liner. It’s incredibly easy, and the best part is that it actually looks symmetrical without spending ages in front of the mirror. And the liner itself is fantastic—rich, dark, and smooth. I’d recommend using an eyeshadow primer to make it last even longer. Price-wise, it's a steal considering it replaces two products with one and the amount of time and frustration it saves you. And with a 100% money-back guarantee, it’s pretty much a risk-free purchase. Read more
I love the look of winged liner, but don't always have the most steady hands. Or patience. Or time to actually make sure they're even. I'll admit that I bought this liner on an impulse after reading a Buzzfeed article, and this liner is honestly amazing. The tubes are about as large as the average dry erase board marker, which makes them a lot easier to grip in general. Having the dual-end (stamp and normal liner) provides a versatile product as you can achieve multiple looks easily without taking up a lot of room. I was able to quickly achieve a perfect winged liner! Mission accomplished! My only complaint and the reason for four stars overall instead of five is that the liner formula is a bit thin and watery, but this can be remedied by using multiple layers or using another product on top that has a bit more coverage.

The media could not be loaded. I love this eyeliner and it is waterproof. This the only eyeliner I have found that goes on this smoothly. The only downside is that after about a month the lid doesn’t stay snapped closed. I have a video demonstrating what it does. And so far I have not been able to find it in a dark brown color. Really great product and I would give it a 5 if it only had the lid problem fixed. This is my 6th time buying and it has done this for every one. Update. Usually this eyeliner is good for about 2 months. But this last time I only used for a month and the lid started popping off and it ended up popping off in my makeup case without me realizing it and it completely dried out. If this happens again I will not be rebuying this again and I will be getting back on to give it even lower than 3 stars. Really disappointing since I really like the way it works. Read more
Easy to use, stamped takes a bit to get that perfect wing, all depends on your lids. Having 2 in 1 is a winning combo for the price. Read more
This is one of several I bought. the concept of the stamp is beyond simple! it stays put and doesn't transfer to the area around the upper lid. I even fell asleep was too lazy to take off my makeup and the next say it was perfectly there as if I just put it on. Removal is easy with the nano makeup towel or makeup wipes. I just bought the "la pure" which is more expensive and an "amazon choice" but didn't work for me at all! I have oily eye lids too and this brand stayed very well. Can't tell how long it will last before it dries out but for the price and performance, I have sensitive eyes and eyelids, this one did not irritate me at all.. didn't flake.. it's just PERFECT! I will buy it again and again as long as it's here on amazon. Read more
