Product experience
The eyeliner is part of the Collection noir line. You get 0.0 g of product for $6.00 The tip is really fine 

swatch
Pros 
  • Fine tip
  • great for tight lining and just getting in those hard to reach areas
  • Inexpensive
  • Available at Target and CVS stores 

Cons
  • The product is not very creamy
  • It is not a waterproof product so this needs to be set with a powder
fine tip

This is not a waterproof eyeliner nor the blackest or the creamiest but I still like the fine tip. It allows you to get close to your lash line. Wear time can be extended by smudging a little black eye shadow on top of the liner. Not the creamiest eyeliner and I found this tugged on my lids. It's just an okay product for me.

You .057 oz 0.0 g of product for $2.99 I got the colors black leather 01 which is your basic black and twilight 04 which is a nice bright blue. It's available in 8 shades from basic blacks to fun bright yellow.The black sets to a matte finish while blue has some micro shimmer.The blue will stain your lids I didn't notice any staining with the black.It is an ink pot type of liquid eyeliner with a nice thin brush applicator.
I found  the texture to be nice it does take a few seconds to dry but nothing bad.
I find my self dipping a couple of times to get enough product on my lids and to get enough color.

  • Very pigmented
  • Some products dries to different finishes, the black dried to a matte finish while the blue one has some iridescence
  • Dries quickly
  • Comes in basic and non traditional shades like green and yellow

a little bit of transfer/staining 


Cons
  • the brush is a just a tad short
  • the some of the color transfers
  • The some of colors will stain your lids
  • The blue one flaked around my eye area
  • The formula feels drying upon initial application but goes away after 15 min



twilight, after 4 hours 

after 4 hour twilight, there's a bit of flaking around my eye

All in all I like this eyeliner the brush is thin and the formula works for me. It worth trying out if you happen to find this available in stores.

 The felt tip is not very flexible, it got bent half way from the tip. It is still usable but it makes winging out eyeliner more difficult. All in all it I was not impressed by the product.
