Smudge galore
Terrible. Smudges and runs. I spent the day reapplying to the top lid and cleaning up under the eye.

Where’s the pencil?????
I bought this because it’s one of the only true dark blue on the market — prestige or drugstore. However, it was difficult to actually get to the product. It kept clicking but no pencil. I finally got it and had one application. The second time the tip broke and it’s back to clicking only. HORRIBLE.

Defective packaging
I just bought this product and the packaging is defective. The pen clicks like it’s supposed to but the actual eyeliner doesn’t come out, a complete waste of money since I can’t use it.

Target promo is a lie Target charges YOU for them
Be aware when shopping at Target: the “promo gift card” offers are NOT actually free. You are essentially paying for those gift cards as part of the promotion. After purchasing the required items, I was charged for all of the so-called promo gift cards, and customer service has refused to issue a refund. Just a heads up so others don’t get caught off guard like I did.

Terrible
I can't get to the actual product. I twist and just hear clicking. Try to use and it's a plastic piece over the actual point. You scratch your eye lid. What a waste of money.

Great Product!
Loved this eyeliner! It went on smoothly without having to press down hard which was a huge plus! It also lasted much longer than I anticipated! Will definitely purchase again

Can’t Twist
I can’t figure out how to get it out? I have been twisting nonstop and nothing is moving. I just opened this and can’t even use it. Very disappointed.

Bring back the old formula
So sad you changed the formula! I’ve been using this product for 30 years. Now I have to find a new favorite since the product hardly goes on and color barely shows up. I originally thought I had put too much lotion on my face and that’s why it wasn’t going on until I did a search to see if you changed it.

Change it back!
I’m so sad. I’ve used this product for many years (decades?!), but the new formula just doesn’t cut it. As others said, it’s too light and doesn’t have enough pigment. It seems waxy and just doesn’t go on well at all. It was perfect before :(

Useless Product
What on Earth possesses companies to change a classic product, and in the process, make it absolutely useless? I have used this product on and off since college, and your "new & improved" formula barely shows up when applied. I'm baffled that Cover Girl is probably paying someone a pretty good salary to make such an incredibly foolish product reformulation. I'm disappointed to say the least. If I had to hazard a guess, I'd speculate the only reason for the change was to increase profit by using a cheaper formulation.

New formula is horrible!
Just opened a new Perfect Point Plus and I’m so disappointed with new formula. It’s nothing like the old one. When you put it on you can barely see it, there is no pigment at all. It has the look of a crayon! It also wipes right off. I have used this product for over 25 years and I’m so upset I have to look for something else now. Why mess with a good thing! You can tell the difference between the old formula and new formula on my hand in the photo attached. Old formula has so much more pigment.

This eyeliner goes on smoothly, stays on, and doesn’t smudge like other brands I’ve tried. Definitely one of my favorite eyeliners and great for when you’re on a budget and want the same effect without splurging on high-end brands

Disappointed in recent quality
I have used this Espresso eyeliner for years. Recently I had two disappointing experiences. A few months ago, the brand new eyeliner that I purchased would not "twist" out - the pencil twisted but no eyeliner came out. Not usable and had to throw it away. I bought a replacement and it was fine. When that one ran out, I purchased another Espresso eyeliner that was the "new formula" and it went on a very thin, light brown - almost translucent. Nothing like the old formula. Not sure if that is how the new formula is supposed to be or if it was a quality issue. Very disappointed that my "go to" eyeliner for years was a miss on the past 2 out of 3 purchases.

Not improved
I was hoping that I had bought a fluke a few weeks ago, but sadly a brand new pencil in this new formula and it’s just as difficult. I’m not sure if it’s too waxy or something else, but it does not go on well at all. I’m very sad because I love the espresso color.
