Works as well as higher priced liners
Nice eyeliner pencil. I got the green and it is beautiful. Creamy and easy to apply. Sets quickly. No smudge or flaking. Removes with removing oil or balm. Lasted all day. Dries to a permanent color until removed. Easy to use. Functions as promised 😊

Bold Lines That Stay All Day!
This eyeliner is my new ride-or-die. The essence Stay & Play Gel Eyeliner in Black Raven glides on like butter and delivers rich, jet-black pigment that makes my eyes pop instantly. Whether I’m going for a sleek wing or a smudgy smoky vibe, it holds up beautifully—no smudging, no fading, even after a long day.I love that it’s waterproof and vegan, and the gel-like texture feels super gentle on my lids. It’s not retractable, so you’ll need a sharpener, but that’s a small trade-off for the performance. Plus, it’s cruelty-free and budget-friendly, which makes it a total win in my book.If you want bold definition without the drama of touch-ups, this eyeliner is a must-have. It’s proof that great makeup doesn’t have to come with a high price tag!

Smooth, Affordable, and Long-Lasting
I picked up the essence Stay & Play Gel Eyeliner on a whim, and it’s honestly one of the best budget eyeliners I’ve tried. It’s super soft, glides on easily, and stays in place most of the day.Pros:Smooth Application: The gel formula is creamy and easy to apply—no tugging or skipping.Great Pigment: Comes out bold and rich, even in one swipe.Affordable: At this price, it’s a steal—feels like a product twice the cost.Waterline Friendly: Gentle enough to use on the waterline without irritation.Decent Staying Power: Holds up well through most of the day without major smudging.Cons:Needs Sharpening: It’s not a twist-up, so you’ll need a sharpener to keep the tip precise.Can Smudge on Oily Skin: If you have very oily lids, it may fade or smudge after a few hours.Not Waterproof: It’s long-lasting, but not completely waterproof—will fade with heavy sweating or rubbing.Final Thoughts:If you’re looking for an eyeliner that’s soft, pigmented, and affordable, this one delivers. It’s perfect for everyday use and easy to apply, especially if you’re in a rush.Highly recommend for anyone wanting a smooth gel liner without spending a fortune.

my favorite !
THESE are my favorite pencils to use so many different ways. My favorite is the Silky Nude and I KNOW I AM GOING TO REGRET saying how great they are for so many things. I use the silky nude as an under eye concealer, or use to blend over dark spots. I also use it in the lines from nose to mouth and just tap it to blend. I use it to highlight small areas with the side of the color pencil, like inner corner of your eye. It is just the right color, not icy or white. I LOVE the color pencils to blend on my eyelid or in the crease with my finger, a sponge tip applicator or a brush for cream eye shadow. I also use some colors as lipliner or even fill in my lips. It cuts down on things you need to carry in your purse if you need to touch up. You can use any pencil, fat or thin pencils, but they have to have the right texture. I have a few different brands that I use but these have the right texture, you can blend them cause they are creamy but also stay put after they are set and the price is ❤️❤️❤️

this is not retractable and does not come with a sharpener
The color of this eyeliner is gorgeous and vibrant; however, I thought I ordered a retractable one, so I had to go out and buy an eyeliner sharpener. All it did was shred the wood, and I can’t use it, so that money was wasted on this purchase. Please make this color a retractable eyeliner. Having to sharpen eyeliner pencils is a thing of the past; it is also a nuisance. If you must sell them as an eyeliner pencil, please include a proper sharpener.

Very nice eyeliner
Good eyeliner. It stays on. It does not roll up to advance the liner. It has a plastic barrel cover. It is possible to sharpen it so that you can continue to use the liner. It Hasn’t broken. It does not smudge.
