No product in tube
As the other views say, there is barely any product. Way over price for what you get or a manufacturing error.

Smooth even pigment but doesn’t last as long as I’
This is a great affordable option. The eye liner goes on smoothly and is a nice creamy texture with buildable coverage. My only issue is I wish it lasted a bit longer. The packaging is easy and I love that you don’t have to sharpen it! Many of the colors are versatile and the white is very clean looking!

Great eyeliner, terribly small amount/tube
I want to like this product. The eyeliner itself is great, but the packaging is not. First, the plastic wrap is really annoying, on all products. This eyeliner in particular is a very little amount. There is no way to get to the rest, wherever that may be. I’ve used it a dozen times, if that, and very small amounts, and it was almost gone, then, the small amount that was left disappeared into the tube, with no way to extract it. Disappointing, because I’m would be a fantastic eyeliner if that issue was resolved.

No shimmer
Not really a shimmer to this as it looks online.
1 reply from NYX Cosmetics Team team - 1 month ago
Hello wb4! It is disappointing to hear that the finish of the Epic Wear Liner Stick did not provide the vibrant shimmer you were expecting based on the online imagery. Our Epic Wear collection is designed for high-impact, waterproof color, and while some shades feature light-reflecting pigments, the intensity can sometimes appear more subtle depending on the lighting and the method of application. To enhance the shimmering properties of the liner, we recommend applying it in a slightly thicker line and then gently smudging the edges with a synthetic brush before the formula sets. This action can help "lift" the reflective particles to the surface, allowing them to catch the light more effectively. Because this formula is engineered to be incredibly long-wearing, it sets quickly, so we suggest working on one eye at a time to achieve this effect. We truly value your feedback, as it helps us ensure our digital representations more accurately reflect the sophisticated finishes of our products.

Waste of money. Product is hiding in the tube
Liner stick wouldn't work. The product just sat in the tube and didn't poke out of the plastic container. There was no way to get it to show the material in the tube. Complete waste of money.

To sharpen it you have to use a pencil sharpener but the tube is made out of plastic so it’s a little weird.

Hello Ellie! Thank you for sharing your experience and observation about our Epic Wear Liner Stick! We completely understand why the plastic-like casing might seem a bit unusual when it comes to sharpening. You are absolutely right that our Epic Wear Liner Stick is designed to be sharpened using a cosmetic pencil sharpener, despite its durable, plastic-like exterior. Many modern cosmetic pencils utilize this type of advanced polymer casing because it helps to protect the creamy, long-wearing formula inside, ensuring it stays fresh and performs brilliantly for extended wear. For the best sharpening experience, we recommend using a high-quality cosmetic sharpener that has a sharp blade, specifically designed for makeup pencils. A gentle, steady twist will cleanly remove the material, revealing more of the vibrant color beneath. This way, you can enjoy every bit of your Epic Wear Liner Stick!

Great eyeliner
I started using EpicWear Waterproof Eyeliners since last year and really liked it. They are truly waterproof and work great.

An absolutely fine eyeliner pencil
I am not sure what problem people have with sharpening those - a normal, not even fancy, cosmetic sharpener works perfectly. I have 2 of those, the purple I really like, the black I am not super fond of, but it's most likely cause of lack of skill and puffy eyelids. It's a bit hard for me to draw nice lines, even when sharpened. Nicely pigmented, soft and the colours are really pretty.

NO.
I wish I could give negative stars because of the packaging. Never try to reinvent the wheel. No one can figure out how to sharpen this and it was a complete waste of money.

Lasts all day
I lost the cap to this product but I love using it as a lip liner instead of an eyeliner. Because it is water proof I notice very little smudging and my lip combos last almost all day even when reapplying my lip glosses.

Expensive for so little
Works great when new, once used, no more. Tip is all I have.

Comparable to any high end, longwear eyeliner.
Every bit as good as the $30 eyeliner you;d buy at Sephora. I've purchased many, many high end eyeliner from Sephora, and this is the same quality/texture/smudge-ability. This eyeliner, does, not, budge: I do not say this lightly, I have super oily eyelids. Definitely recommend this pencil, period.

Unfortunately, the eyeliner outer tube/packaging is plastic, which makes sharpening it impossible. I was left with sharp edges so I couldn’t apply it any longer after sharpening. Completely useless after a couple uses.

I took this out of the packaging and the tip was broken and not retractable. What a waste of money.

A one time use liner
As others have said, there is only the tip available to use! You can’t crank it up or sharpen it! There is about 1/16 of an inch of product!
