Formula Overview

$4.49/0.04 oz. - $112.25 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "full-coverage" with "16 hour" wear" that is "smudge-proof" and "water-resistant." Most shades were on the pigmented side with semi-opaque to opaque coverage that could be layered.

The texture was lightly creamy, smooth, and comfortable to work with as the eyeliner glided across my skin without tugging or pulling. They wore around 10 hours on me before showing signs of thinning/fading, so not quite the 16-hours promised, but there was about half of the eyeliner still visible at the 16-hour mark.
