What I like about these pencils is that I comes in 8 beautiful colours which is great for those of you, who like me like experimenting with different eye colour pencils without splashing out a lot of money to try new looks. It is relatively creamy and glides on smoothly after the product is warmed up a little. It was super affordable (again) and costs only R19.95 per pencil. As I said in my review for the Essence 2-in-1 Kajal eyeliners, I like to gently warm the eyeliner up a bit before applying because it becomes so much smoother and creamier to apply.
I know it says that these pencils use a long-lasting formula, but these liners did not last all day even when I just applied it to my bottom lash line, not even my waterline. I would highly recommend you to use a primer with this, and if you want it to last extra long, apply an eyeshadow with a similar colour over it.
I find that the quality between this eyeliner and the 2-in-1 quite similar. There isn’t a big difference except that the individual liners do last a tad bit longer than the 2-in-1 liners and with the 2-in-1 liners you get an extra colour to play around with.
