one of the best I've tried...

I love Smashbox's cream liners! They go on so easily and smoothly, making it simple to create an even, straight line. Even better, they last all day/night--the best staying power I've ever had from a cream eyeliner. I have this liner in a deep brown color and in a plum color, and I apply them with the awesome angled liner brush that Smashbox makes. In the daytime, I apply with a light hand for a subtle look, but I love to build up the color for an evening out. These liners are perfect when creating a smokey eye.

Love it

One of the best cream liners I have tried. Smooth texture, I even use it on my inner lids. I suggest using the Smashbox liner brush for this product.

Loves It!

I have this in black and LOVE it!! Although, I will say that it is easier to apply when it is newer, after 2 or 3 months, it doesn't have the same texture...but that's okay, it just gives me a reason to buy more of this awesome product!!

nothing subtle about the black

nothing subtle about it,there is no way to put the blackest black on with a 'light' hand. It is harsh and not at all flattering to the eye. It does glide on and STAY on but it is a very harsh, very black line on the eye. In a softer shade it would probably look great on the inner rim of the eye but the black itself is just too rough. Makeup is meant to enhance ones look not cover it and this eyeliner is pretty much all a person is going to see on a face.

Stays Put :)

I LOVE ANYTHING FROM SMASHBOX!!! But this is by far another great product from Smashbox, no shocker there. It works very well and is very smooth. I find it easy to apply and it STAYS PUT!!! When I went out for about 10 hours into my makeup it did not smug. I must say this is one of the best liners to have by far.

Long-lasting

Easy to apply, although it dries quickly, so you need to be ready to take care of smudges and over-application quickly. It lasts through workouts and overnights.

Clumpy and Flaky after a while

At first it worked great and went on smooth, but after using it for a month or two, it has gotten clumpy and when I put it on, it will flake and little bits of the gel will flake over my face. I have to swipe with a q-tip to get them off my face. Also, when it starts getting flaky, it will be harder to get on the makeup brush. I use the smashbox brush that's bent and supposed to be good at doing cateyes.

Wow.

The thing is, eyeliner NEVER stays on my lower lash line. I guess my skin just produces way too much oil around there or something, but even supposedly great pencil liners like Urban Decay's 24/7 and MUFE's Aqua Eyes just won't stay on for longer than 15 minutes or so (seriously).

Today, I decided to try out this liner. Four hours of tennis later, it was STILL going strong on my lower lash line. Absolutely amazing.

By the end of the night it had faded noticeably, but it still wasn't completely gone and it hadn't smudged all around my eye area like most liners tend to do. I'm in love.

Sephora's Best

Posted: Thu, 07/31/2008 - 1:19am [+] - See all 29 reviews

It wasn't ranked as a Best of Sephora 2007 for nothing! This creamy, smooth eyeliner is one in a million. The colors are rich, but subtle, and are available in a wide variety of darks, neutrals, and . Perfect for a heart stopping look that wears long into an evening of champagne and black ties. It applies evenly, and doesn't smudge or budge once it's set. Before it dries, you have the chance to blend it into your shadow, or leave it be for fantastic definition.

Only problem I have with it, is that it can be a little thick. It takes awhile for a pointed liner brush to pick any up, and no time at all before you need to reload. SO. If you use this stuff, go for a square tipped liner brush, not a pointed one.

I love the angled Smashbox eyeliner brush and the product color was fab. Very easy to apply but I did experience some transfer of the product during the course of the day.

Nothing better!

Words can not explain how much I love this eyeliner! There is nothing on the market that stays in the lashline like this does! It glides on smoothly, delivers a ton of definition and lasts from 6 am today to 6 am tomorrow if you like! In all honesty, it's the only liner that doesn't move a fraction of an inch on me. Just remember your waterproof eye makeup remover if you want to remove it!
