Essence Superfine Eyeliner Pen Review

This pencil has a great, retractable tip with no need for sharpening. It is highly pigmented and relatively blendable, although extended blending can make it patchy. It doesn't flake, is easy to use, and an amazing price.

Picked one of these up for a great price, and served me very well throughout my emo phase LMAO. Eyeliner works well, has a nice pointy end for precision, lasts basically the whole day and is nice and inky. The product does start to get a little crumbly near the end of the day though.

I bought Essence's Superfine Eyeliner Pen after my Eye of Horus Liquid Define Liner ran out.

In the past, I've always found liquid eyeliner to be quite tricky to apply as my hands shake quite a bit, but I find that a pen-like style liquid liner makes application so much easier for me and I have a lot more control over where the eyeliner goes.

The black liner has quite a long, pointy felt-tip that allows the liquid to glide on smoothly, creating a thin sharp line. For bolder lines, I just need to add a few more strokes of the pen, but that is often when things go wrong, as the super long tip of this pen makes precise application a little more difficult than other pen-style liquid eyeliners with slightly shorter tips.

The formula of eyeliner liquid dried almost instantly and didn’t imprint my eyelids, and it definitely stayed on all day or night. I found that if I missed a spot and needed to go back over it, that it was problem, the product just glided on smoothly to cover the gap without flaking or crumbling any of the existing product on my lid.

I would consider repurchasing this, but I do prefer to use an eyeliner with a slightly shorter tip, as if find I have more control and precision with a shorter, more stable pen tip.

I bought this eyeliner to try because I had never used a 'pen' type before. Loved the fine tip. Product not super long lasting but I guess for the price not too bad. Opthalmology tested so that is a big plus for me.

For the price its fine, but it drys in the tube quickly and you get minimal product, so you'd have to constantly repurchase it. It was annoying to use as it was dry and made eyeliner difficult, was a lovely dark black when it came on though, but you'd have to have the time to use this product, not in a rushed scenario.

It does work, but the product transfers onto the skin that overlaps with your eyelid. I like the pen design and the formula (though it can look dull without building it up much). I recommend the waterproof version of this eyeliner pen if your eyelid presses against the skin beneath your browbone or if you sweat a lot. Definitely if both.

I love most Essence products, and this is definitely a favourite. I prefer liners with a thin tip so it is easy to create a sharp wing and this is perfect!

It's very pigmented and easy to use, and lasts a long time on the eyes. However the reason I gave this 4 stars is because it dries out pretty quickly. It would be great if it lasted longer, but for the price I can get past that.

Overall this is a great liner, and would be great for someone just starting out with liquid liner.
