Terrible design
This is the worst eyeliner I have ever purchased. Like many others said, the hard plastic makes it impossible to sharpen, so after a couple of uses, I had to throw it in the garbage.

Can’t advance product
Can not advance product in tube. The previous question about this was not answered by company but company gave instructions on how to sharpen instead. I love the color and ease of application but now useless after 5 applications.

Hey! Thanks for sharing your feedback on our Epic Wear Waterproof Eyeliner Stick. This eye pencil does not advance up, as it is designed to be sharpened. You can sharpen it using our Double Pencil Sharpener or any cosmetic-grade sharpener to keep your liner on point! If you're looking for a mechanical eyeliner option, we invite you to check out our Vivid Rich Mechanical Pencil. We hope this helps you slay your looks!

Breaks Easily
This product breaks off every time I use it. I love the colors and once I actually get the pencil to work, it's gorgeous on.
1 reply from Consumer Care Center team - 26 days ago
Hello Audacious1! We are so delighted to hear that you love the vibrant colors of our Epic Wear Waterproof Eyeliner Stick and that you find the look "gorgeous" once you apply it! It's wonderful to know that the shades resonate with your creative vision. However, we are truly sorry to learn that you're experiencing breakage every time you use the product. That is certainly not the seamless application experience we want for you. Our Epic Wear Eyeliner Sticks are formulated to deliver intense, waterproof color with a creamy glide for precise application and exceptional longevity. This can sometimes mean the core of the pencil is quite soft to achieve that smooth, rich color payoff and easy application. To help prevent breakage, we often suggest twisting up only a very small amount of product at a time—just enough to apply—and using a light hand, as the creamy texture doesn't require much pressure. We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention, as your detailed feedback is incredibly valuable to us in our continuous efforts to refine and improve our products.

SHARPEN WITH A EYELINER PENCIL SHARPENER!!
I think NYX should send me free eyeline for life, I am about to post this everywhere! I loooove this eyeliner...the colors are beautiful, it goes on smoothly, and it stays on! I was aggravated that it didn't twist to move the pencil up, so thought I had to buy a new one way too often. Then I read some tiny print somewhere that said you can use an eyeliner sharpener...on the plastic. i tried it and it WORKS! NYX PLEASE post this everywhere in big bold type!!

THIS IS AN AWFUL DESIGN AND A WASTE OF MONEY
What a waste of money! i WISH i had read the reviews before buying. Itt cannot be sharpened, contrary to what the NYX people write. Who in the world designed this pencil??? I hope I can find my receipt, so I can return it.

Didnt love this formula
The eyeliner color was very light and the it didnt want to apply to my eye. I had to go over the lid a couple times for the color to apply. Its like something in the pencil formula is too oily so it doesn’t want to stick to your eye.

Great color but...
Decent color but…I actually bought the eye liner color called, fierce purple, not sure why the Target website says I bought, eggplant, but the fierce purple went on my eyes clumpy. Compared to other higher-end brands, I didn’t love this. I prefer the twistable kind.

Did not like not user friendly
This is the worst eyeliner i have ever used and the most expensive. After a couple of uses there is no point and it is very hard to sharpen. . also was not easy to figure out how to sharpen With all the complaints you would think the company would offer a coupon for something else. I will not buy again and will not reccommend
1 reply from NYX Professional Makeup team - 2 months ago
Hi rearea. Despite the plastic-coated appearance of the Epic Wear Waterproof Eyeliner Stick, it can be sharpened with a cosmetic sharpener. For best results, turn the pencil gently in the sharpener 3 or 4 times, being careful not to apply excess pressure. After sharpening, remove all shavings from the blade edge. Your sharpener should be replaced whenever the blade has dulled and is no longer giving the expected results. We hope this information helps! We are sorry for the inconvenience. xoxo

Great until you need to sharpen
Colors are beautiful but the tip broke off and they don't sharpen properly. If there is a special sharpener for these it should be so indicated. Disappointed is an understatement.

I like it
Creamy, smooth and PIGMENTED on my dark skin. It’s Joy always easy finding products that actually show up on dark skin so it’s nice that this brand is trying to change that.

Perfect for creating
Talk about a perfectly smooth, comfortable liner to add an extra pop of color to your look. This is just a standard eyeliner stick jam packed of color, creativity and creamy goodness. They have a bunch of colors to pick from so there's plenty for everybody!

affordable and pigmented!
very vibrant color payout, good pigmentation! a majority of them did stay on well and lasted a good while and applied very smoothly but im giving 4 stars instead of 5 because a couple of the shades weren’t consistent in formulation and wouldn’t last as long.

Yes, you CAN sharpen this eyeliner !!!
This product wears down very quickly - then what? It does not appear to be sharpenable, but actually is! So weird. Would be far better to have a retractable with this range of colors - loving the Chill Blue.

good but could use some improvement
good pigmentation, however doesn’t stay quiteee as long as i’d like… i also kinda hate the way you’re supposed to sharpen it, i wish it was retractable but other than that it’s a good beginner eyeliner

Not transfer proof
The color is very pigmented and it lasts a sufficient amount of time. Nothing spectacular. But the real issue is it transfers from tight lining to my bottom water line. That’s not acceptable.

One time use
Broke the tip first time using it. Isn’t a mechanical pencil. Looked at other reviews to see if I just couldn’t figure it out but nope, instructions and reviewers say the company says to use a pencil sharpener even though it’s hard plastic. Would not buy again.

Hey there! We are disappointed to hear that you are not getting great results when you sharpen the Epic Wear Liner Stick, in the shade 4 Pink Spirit. Despite the plastic appearance this pencil is sharpen-able. We recommend using a makeup sharpener like our Dual Sharpener, and turn the pencil gently in the sharpener 3 or 4 times, being careful not to apply excess pressure. After sharpening, remove all shavings from the blade edge. Your sharpener should be replaced whenever the blade has dulled and is no longer giving the expected results. We hope this information helps and you give it another try! xoxo
