Editor Review

Rated a 8

This stubby pen combines the best of liquid and pencil liners. The marker tip makes dark pigment glide on without smudging, and it's easy to stash in your purse for touch-ups. (Read between the lines: This liner doesn't last.) The value pricing feels like a bargain until you consider how quickly you'll blow through a tube re-applying. We'd also like a better selection of colors -- beyond the basic black, brown and smoke.

    Great bargain

    by IvyOMG (25 reviews)
    Trusted Review
    For those who cringe at the thought of applying liquid liner, fear no more! One of the biggest problems with liquid liner is that if one little bristle of the brush is unkempt and goes astray, which is inevitable after use, your line turns into garbage (like a line and another thin line next to it or just smudges ugh). This... ingenious method of using a foam brush gives that same "perfect" look without making sure every bristle is in place (not that there are any to worry about). It's a bargain, lasts all day (a rare thing for eye liner since I have oily lids, liquid just does better), and is user-friendly. Sadly, it runs out extremely quickly and while it runs low it's color gets much weaker. February 18, 2008, 12:05 am

    I have always had problems applying eyeliner of any kind. I have tried the pencils, crayons, with smudger tips to help blend it in. I have tried the liquid that you get wet yourself and apply with your own brush... Everything.I couldn't apply a straight line to save my life and then the liquid would dry quickly and I would ...have to wash it off and start over. If I did get close to a straight line,the pencil would pull at my eye lid or it would overly smudge and end up running or floating around in my eye later on. I finally gave up on ever being able to pull off a beautiful lined eye. I saw a commercial for the CG Line Exact and decided to give liner one more try. I purchased it in Black and went home and gave it a whirl and suprise!! I can draw a straight line with this, it's easy to use, easy to clean up quickly if you make a slight mistake but sets and stays until you wash it off! Great Price and it lasts a long time. Someone mentioned earlier in a review that the black wasn't dark enough. It's plenty black, you just need to shake it up. I am never without this product! March 8, 2008, 11:51 pm

    A label junkiw who loves her cheapie liner!!!!

    How can you not love this stuff?I don't typically buy any drugstore brands but I have been wearing liquid liner since 7TH GRADE so as you might imagine we are pretty close. This is my dream liner. I would take this over the Chanel or Lancome versions I've tries any day. Short and stubby so it gives you the most control, dar...k inky black that draws a clean even line with the felt tip. Mine lasts all day and I even wear it on the inner lids. I only keep eye makeup 3-4 months-any longer and it's full of bacteria-gross but true. This little liner is so inexpensive that I buy 4-5 a year and never give it a second thought. Try buying $30 Chanel 4-5 times a year-ouch..... December 30, 2007, 10:02 pm

    Makes eyelining a cinch!

    by Kahlema (13 reviews)
    I like how easy it is to apply a straight line with this CoverGril LineExact Liquid Liner. You don't have to have a surgeon's hand with this. It does a good job to make a thick or think line. While I do like it's compact, tiny size, at the same time it is it's downfaull. I would like to see CoverGirl improve it or redesign ...the liner container so it could hold more because I went through it very fast. May 20, 2008, 2:22 pm

    A perfect solution

    by Hannah (16 reviews)
    Trusted Review
    I spent too much money on a Clinique kohl eye pencil and after being incredibly frustrated with it, bought this. This eyeliner is fool proof and I'm constantly amazed by its accuracy. I don't seem to have much of a problem with it wearing off at all, but if you do happen to smudge it with your fingers or hand during the cou...rse of your day/evening you'll definitely have to reapply.

    Won't Stay On!

    by good2st (7 reviews)
    I'd heard this liner stays on for a long time, but when I tried it, it wore off after a few hours. It's also kind of sheer, so if you're looking for a liner that will give you a solid, dark line, this one won't completely do the trick. The Sharpie-like brush makes it really easy to apply, which is handy, but other than th...at, I was a bit disappointed with this liner. December 6, 2007, 9:00 pm

    easy peasy!

    by bethanie (21 reviews)
    I am awful with liquid liners- they always end up all over the place and the look is always messy. However, after I bought this stuff it's all I use. It is easy to draw and it goes on dark and fine, the way I like. I like the brown shade best- I have the gray but it doesn't look so hot. May 26, 2008, 2:36 pm

    convienent

    by pltnmbarbie (3 reviews)
    this is a great product. its convienent in the way you dont have to keep dipping it into a well of liquid, it self rejuvinates its own felt tip. makes cat eyes and the trendy little wings super easy to do even for the most unsteady of hands that want thee exact definition that only a liquid can give you.

    Lines exact, but runs a little short

    by mlskelto (3 reviews)
    For the price, this liner is a find and not-to-mention small enough to tuck into the tiniest of makeup bags. Unfortunately that small size means it does not have the longevity of the larger sizes - I found myself running out a month after buying it. Also, it's proven to be a no-go for plane rides (nothing like finding a poo...l of liner in the bottom of your bag). November 12, 2007, 5:01 pm
