Formula Overview
$13.00/0.012 oz. – $1083.33 Per Ounce
The gel eyeliner formula is supposed to have “intense pigment” in “one-stroke application” that is smudge-proof, sweat-proof, and waterproof. I found they were medium to mostly opaque, fairly buildable, and long-wearing enough to hang with a good eyeliner but not extraordinarly long-wear.
Most of the shades had a smooth, glide-on texture that comfortably applied across my skin, lower lash line, and curvature of the lid without skipping or tugging, but they didn’t crease/settle into fine lines as they dried down.
They tended to thin noticeably after eight to nine hours of wear, which is a little longer than typical, and I’ve had the longest wear for eyeliner closer to 10 to 12 hours, but most tend to wear around eight on me for reference.
