Don’t even need to say anything. Stays on for hours and doesn’t look 2005 heavy crazy liner. This is perfect. As usual. Smashbox is one of the best in all areas. I have blonde hair but a darker balayage up top. If this is you, get the brown. I got brown eyeliner months ago and with my hair color and green eyes this liner is amazing. Does not smudge. And stays on for hours. Zero fading. Read more

Love this eye liner! It goes on easy and doesn’t melt off your eyes throughout the day. I’ve tried so many other types and brands that I lost count. This is the best by far! Read more

I have tried all brands of eye pencils and none of them stayed on...until I found Smashbox "YEP IT'S STILL ON" It's true...it stays on all day without any touch up. Believe me when I tell you it really does. Read more

I’ve been a loyal Smashbox fan since 2015- it’s one of the best! I originally thought this was the version with the built-in sharpener, but I’m still happy with it. It works just as well, and I don’t mind sharpening it myself. Great product either way! Read more

This pencil is encased in plastic, so any cheap drugstore sharpener isnt gonna cut it. It needs to be sharp, and kept clean. It does not twist to push up more eyeliner. The liner is made of gel, it is very soft, so it cannot be encased in wood. As far as the quality, this is the BEST water proof liner I have ever used. So good that I need an eye make up remover to take it off. Sure you can use soap and water, but it does not take it all off. You have to keep rubbing it until your skin is sore. It goes on thick and really dark, if you use fishnet(black), hence you do end up using more of it. With that being said, its too EXPENSIVE for something that only last me a week. I work at Ross dress for less, and every now and then we get it, so I snatch it up. Read more

The reason I'm giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is because of how difficult it is to sharpen it without it breaking off. I have the Brewed color and it's a true brown which is very nice. The gel liner goes on easily and usually lasts all day. If I go out for the evening I need to reapply, otherwise just applying in the morning is sufficient for the work day. I wear contacts and this product doesn't bother them, or me, at all. The only issue I have is the sharpening. I'm not sure if it's me or the pencil but it breaks all the time when I'm sharpening it! It doesn't matter if I do is fast or slow, big sharpener or small... I can't win. I ordered the Always Sharp version instead (it's the self sharpening one). Read more
