I purchased this from last months Avon book at a cost of only R39.99 being on special. I have never used Avon's eyeliners before so was eager to try, and the result was Impressive! The stick was soft and applied to the eye very easily, the liner did not smudge and lasted the entire day. I have now ordered the Cosmic Brown glimmerstick, that is how happy i was with this product. Go Avon :)
