This is truly wonderful eyeliner. I am duly impressed. I usually buy them on special, and I must say they do the job very well. Simple application, solid colour and no real smudging. I usually use Cosmic Brown / Blackest Black, and I am impressed with them both. It is really hot where I stay and this eyeliner is rather durable, and takes a bit before it smudges and fades. I would say you get your cash worth and then some!
