Essence Stays No Matter What felt tip eyeliner

I generally have a lot of time for Essence products because they tend to do exactly what they say on the tin, while still being extremely purse friendly. This eyeliner, however, is the biggest load of crap that has ever disgraced my make up box. Let me begin...


While it goes on easy, and the skinny tip makes it easy to get the eyeliner shape you want, you wont have your eyeliner on for long. I have quite sensitive eyes, and a strong breeze can make them water slightly (SLIGHTLY!!) but the second even a drop of water was released from my eye I looked like I should be on my way back to the panda enclosure in Dublin zoo. Ok, fine, not all felt tip liners fare that well against the elements, but don't release and eyeliner that claims to last up to 24 hours "no matter what" and then have it fall at the first hurdle. I was left with a big black ring around 1 eye, that was a nightmare to get off (bit late for your 24 hour trick to be kicking in then), and a smudge on the roof of my other eye where the eyeliner had just rubbed off.

I hate being so negative about an Essence product, but there really is nothing good about this eyeliner. There's a very, VERY good reason it's under €3. AVOID!!
