Great product....terribly value
First impressions were a lovely all over shade in an unusual yet very wearable color. Lasted all day with use of a primer. Nonetheless, after using this on my lid and undereye for 5 days...half the product is gone. This pencil does not twist up nor can you use a sharpener. The little nubbin of product you see is all you get and for the price point that seems unacceptable to me.
Easiest Smokey Eye
I’m blown away. I’ve been using Bobbi Brown’s similar type of product in past few years and generally ok with it, until I tried this one today and I am so impressed! It does glide on easily like butter, easy to smudge and blend for a soft Smokey eye, and can layer on with a more solid line for more definition. Overall the look is like a very skillfully blended eye makeup as if I had used multiple shades and products and brushes to achieve the effect. I can even line my bottom lash with this without it smearing. It’s possibly my favourite makeup product ever.
Dark Pearl is shimmery, and a great greyish purple color.
This stays put without creasing on my primed eyelids. It does crease on unprimed lids, but I have oily lids so I don't think it is reasonable to deduct any points from my review for that reason.
As others have said, it doesn't blend well. However, that's often the other side of the long-wear coin. I get around this by applying to my lid where I don't need to blend, then applying/blending over small areas at a time.
Just Beautiful
I bought this together with By Terry Color-Fix Eyeshadow. I really love this color and how easy it glides on and pigmentation is great. Only down fall its not a twist up like By Terry. But of course By Terry cost $44 vs $27. I like smudging my eyeliner to give a little smokey look but Kohls pencils sometimes tug on my skin which I really dislike. This blends beautifully even with your fingers ! So I will definitely repurchase this again. IF comparing to By Terry, By Terry is little better than CT's if you don't compare the prices !
love it
Does what it promises. Lasts all day ( I always use a primer so not sure what it does without). Easy to apply and quick to blend with a finger. Gorgeous colour. Sets after a minute or so so there is plenty of time to tweak things. I usually hate shimmer on my hooded eyes but definitely don't hate this.
Easiest Smokey Eye Ever
This has become one of my favorite eye products of all time. I have the color Dark Pearl and it is so pretty! Seriously the easiest and quickest smokey eye. I just apply it all over my lid and blend out the edges with a neutral transition color. Done! The texture is so creamy and smooth and glides on so easily. And it lasts SO LONG. I went out one night with it on and woke up the next evening (it was a long night, lol) and it was STILL ON. I will definitely be ordering more colors.
