High quality
Stay on all day water proof is up to my standards. Glides on with leaking. Slim design makes it easy to hold like a pencil. Doesn’t crack if put on thick and easy to take off.

My new favorite, way better than L’Oreal
I love this product! NYX is my new favorite! I don’t know why I was being loyal to L’Oreal I can’t tell you how many times I had to throw away the L’Oreal liner because the top came off. This product glides on so smoothly the cap stays on and it’s very long lasting. It’s very hard to remove with just water, so the waterproof label is real! I’m really happy with this product and will continue to buy it.

Waste of money
This literally doesn’t show up on my skin. I got the silver color and there’s just nothing.

Nyx Ink Liner in shade Vintage Baby
I just picked this liner up because I wanted to branch out and try new fun colors. This is a really great liner and I will be buying more colors of it! It doesn’t budge or smudge at all and the color is beautiful! It is really easy to use. I’m glad I tried it!

Dry, but the metallic gray was perfect
Returned. It was dry. And looked very light. Probably wouldn’t have worked out anyway. Please make a deep purple in this product type. TY.

Hi there Aphrodytee1, It’s disappointing to hear that the Epic Wear Glitz Waterproof Eyeliner arrived dry, but returning it was the right call to ensure you get the quality you deserve. Regarding your request for a deep purple shade, this is exactly the kind of feedback our product development teams value. We hope to have a "holy grail" deep purple for you soon!

MY HOLY GRAIL EYELINER
A drugstore product that performs better than high end?!! YES! I’ve been wearing this eyeliner for years and it has never let me down. I have oily eyelids and this liner never budges. Very waterproof and great for hot summer days. I have multiple of this eyeliners. Great product, a true must buy!

I always keep this on hand!
I have bought this many times and always go back to buying it again. This dries quickly and once dry it is VERY smudge proof, cry proof, and baby proof! As a mother of 2 littles it is important to me that my kids can still touch my face and snuggle without messing up my makeup. It comes as an easy to hold pen and its fairly buildable if you want a darker black. The cap doesnt fall off easy like many other eyeliner pens I've had, and thats great for preventing drying out.

Great Eyeliner - Need a Green!
I love this eyeliner! Be careful putting it on. It is semi permanent. But it's perfect for pool, sweat, crying. Great product. Please make a forest green color.

Durable and easy to apply
Stayed on through being broken up with and an hour of crying, definitely waterproof and good quality. Been using for years! Still comes off easily with cleanser and doesn’t make my eyes burn.

You do not need any other eyeliner.
This is my favorite eyeliner. It’s very beginner friendly. It glides on smoothly, and feels like nothing is on your eyes. It’s so easy to create wings with, as the tip is such a fine point. I like to use the “base” or long part to create the line against my lash line. Whenever someone asks for an eyeliner recommendation it’s always this one.

Maybe too waterproof?
When they say waterproof, they MEAN IT. This stuff is nearly impossible to take off. So perfect for pool days, a good cry, etc. Not easy (or even possible??) to correct mistakes when applying. Applicator is hard to use to make smooth, even lines so the fact that is so waterproof and hard to fix errors is not ideal. But if you can put it on without mistakes, it will not budge for anything.

Hello! Thank you for your review of our Epic Ink Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner. We love that it stays put through anything, but we hear you on the removal and application! For easier cleanup, we suggest using an oil-based makeup remover. We’ve also shared your feedback regarding the applicator with our team to help us level up. Keep slaying those waterproof looks!

Stocking a fave
Just restocking my fave eyeliner. Love that there's a solid Navy color too. Wish there was a deep purple color or dark green in the regular line up.

Perfect liner
My favorite eyeliner! Lasts all day. Makes a thin line or a thick line if you want it. Love that it’s not a felt liner but a brush tip. Doesn’t flake or wipe off throughout the day.

Great liner. Received many compliments.
Love All Time Olive eye liner. Love the color and love the pencil stick. I wish there was a subtle purple like this. I’ve tried Berry Goth and Magenta Shock. Berry is too dark and Magenta is a bit too light.

80s Girl loves this eyeliner
I've been "addicted" to eyeliner & mascara since the 80s! I've tried them all - cheap grocery store to high end cosmetics to online whatevers - and this is by far my favorite eyeliner. Easy to apply and stays on until I take it off. And the price is right! Thank you NYX

- Skin tone: Light
(no review title)
I usually love this brand, but this particular eyeliner barely shows up. Maybe it would work better on a darker skin tone, but on a pale person, it is pretty bland. I think I would keep it as a subtle cheek shimmer, but as eyeliner, I am super disappointed.

Hello Hmmm! We appreciate your long-standing love for NYX Professional Makeup, and we're sorry to hear the Epic Wear Glitz Waterproof Metallic Liquid Eyeliner didn't meet your expectations for vibrancy. This liner is designed for a dazzling metallic finish, and sometimes, for an even bolder look, a second layer can enhance its reflective qualities. It's truly creative how you've found an alternative use as a cheek shimmer, and we love seeing how our community uses our products!

Great for its price point
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] this eyeliner applies really easily for drug store, so that was actually a pleasant surprise! It doesn’t flake and it’s pretty easy to use. The only thing is that it can be pretty patchy, and it dries up really fast, but you get what you pay for. So I do like the product for an easy fix, but not something that I’d reach for if I’m thinking of keeping it long term! Storing it upside down can help the longevity of the product however!! It could just be a packaging mishap.

Hey! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on our Epic Ink Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner. We're happy to hear it applies easily and stays flake-free for your looks! We've also noted your feedback regarding the finish and dry-down time, and we love that you're already using the tip to store it tip-down for the best ink flow. Your insights are truly valuable and have been shared with the team. Keep slaying those wings with NYX! XO
