Loreal Voluminous Liner Eyeliner

I love the way this product goes on. I love the quick, easy ability to make a good cat eye. But it isn't smudgeproof or waterproof. Within an hour of putting it on (by the time I'm ready to leave for work) it's smudged up into the crease of my eye and I have to do some quick repair and recovery blending. It has potential but needs work. I wish they had a waterproof version.

Perhaps it is me and human error, however since labeled mistake proof I was very excited. It is a very wet formula and the tip is very thick so people with smaller eyelids will find this exremely difficult to use and will end up with their mistake proof eyeliner on the top of their crease. Great idea, poor execution. And the tip is so hard that you can feel it tugging at your lid. not so great for those of us in our 30's and up. I really wanted to love this product and have tried it many times to see if I'd change my mind.

I have a habit of loving things that become discontinued. I had bought quite a few of the Marker Eyeliners at once last year because it's been my favorite eyeliner since it was released and I feared it might be discontinued. I just opened my last one today, so I checked on L'Oreal's website to make sure it's still being produced in the US. I was relieved to find it here online (so I can buy it at the drug store); however, I was shocked by all the negative reviews here! What the what?! I rarely ever write reviews, but after years and years of my favorite beauty products being discontinued, I felt compelled to do so. This product is amazing for all its capabilities and price! It is ultra-precise and easy to use. I tossed all my liquid liners when I found this product. The fact that it's a marker gives you so much more control than with the typical liquid liner brushes, no matter how fancy and/or expensive. It never smudges, even in the summer's high heat and humidity where I live (plus, I have oily eyelids!). It's definitely waterproof. I typically don't wear waterproof mascara, so while my mascara runs, my eyeliner stays put. It's also easy to remove. I don't need heavy make-up remover, just a good wash with the most gentle facial cleanser, Cetaphil. I always get compliments on my eyeliner and I wish I could attach pictures to show why. I'm giving this product a rave review because it's my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE EYELINER and I would HATE to see it taken off the shelves.

Just a tip for those who complain that this marker eyeliner is "streaky" , "skips", and is "gray".... DO NOT store it upright. Keep it laying flat (horizontal) for best use. (It used to say this on the package, but for some reason doesn't anymore)

Was very disappointed in this liner. It doesn't "flow" at all but skips and sputters. The color says "black: but it is more of a gray. Not normally unhappy with Loreal since it is just about the only brand I ever buy.
