WHY YOU SHOULD SKIP THIS PRODUCT
I was influenced to buy this liner because I had heard that it was Kim Kardashian's favourite liner, even though I'm not a fan of hers. However, this product is not a complete miss, but not even for me to recommend you to purchase it. I'll start off with the positives. This product is SO SOFT and SO PIGMENTED! It is dark and intense than any other liners that I've used. Since it is a kohl eyeliner, it's very easy to apply. It smoothes really nicely onto the waterline.

Now the negatives, it's very, very, very smudgy! I use this product on my waterline but in a couple of hours, it'll run down. The forumla is really greasy and it's quite hard to remove even with makeup remover. I find that this product is similiar to the NYX Black Bean eye pencil even though that the NYX one is suppose to tbe a coloured based. Also, this liner requires a special Stila sharpener, which I have not purchased. I'm just going to see if it'll hold up even if a regular sharpener. I will continue to use occasionally when I need a blackliner for my waterline, but not sure if I would repurchase because for $22 CAD at Sephora, you can get a better black liner.
