No. 6: L'Oreal Paris Micro Liner Ultra Fine Lining Pencil, $8.49

TotalBeauty.com average reader rating: 4.1*
Why: Readers agree there's "not enough color pay-off." "The eyeliner was too light in coverage and I have had to swipe my lids with it at least twice to get the desired opacity. Even with that, it was still simply too light and even though I don't have oily eyelids, the eyeliner faded in two hours." Another reader says, "I too purchased this eyeliner thinking it would be a good buy. Boy was I wrong! The color was so light, it didn't even look like I had any on -- and that was even after going back and forth numerous times on my eye. Not even close to being worth what they charge. It was very disappointing."

I totally agree about the Lash Stiletto mascara; I wanted to love it SO much but I hated it!

Hate Maybelline mascaras. This is the only brand that straightens my lashes, even when I curl them!!!

I agree with the comment about the Stilleto brand, I absolutely hate the eyeliner too.... terrible applicator, terrible consistency.... runs everywhere. Just hate the whole line.
