Goth eyeliners are typically very rich and intense — many formulas are described as rich, intense, or hyper-pigmented to deliver deep color payoff and strong pigmentation.
Many pencil-style eyeliners include features to support both looks: built-in sharpeners or smudging tips, and product descriptions often recommend using a blender or smudger so you can draw precise lines or blend them into smoky effects.
Several products note formulation exclusions — for example, many are labeled paraben-free and phthalate-free, and some lip products are specifically marked 100% fragrance-free.
Net weights are small and vary by product. Eyeliners commonly list amounts like 0.01 or 0.04 ounces, while some stick lip items are around 0.06–0.07 ounces.
Eyeliner finishes commonly include matte, semi-matte, and metallic. Lip product finishes in these listings include gloss and semi-sheer.
Durability varies but generally ranges from about 12 hours up to 36 hours. Examples in the listings note durations such as up to 12 hrs, up to 16 hrs, up to 18 hrs, and up to 36 hrs.
Many goth eyeliners advertise smudge-proof or smudge-resistant formulas; some are described specifically as waterproof, fade-proof, or long-lasting waterproof formulations.
