This mechanical eye pencil glides on easily, and the ultra thin tip makes creating fine or thick lines easy -- it's also perfect for lining inner rims. The 15 colors are highly pigmented, so if standout eyes are your goal, you'll reach it with this. A complaint? If you have oily lids the stuff transfers slightly onto creases (some prefer Revlon ColorStay, a waterproof liner, for this reason), but the lasting power overall is better than most non-waterproof varieties.

Not MAC's best eyeliner
I have purchased a couple of these eyeliners in the basic black. I justified repurchasing these, even though I didn't like them much because they do an OK job and the twist up plastic pencil is eligible for the Back to MAC program. Stupid reason to buy an eyeliner that just isn't very good. These don't apply very smoothly or precisely at all. I would only use this if you want to smudge it out for a smokey eye look. When I use this on my water line, it has no staying power and just runs. This eyeliner is kind of the worst of both worlds because it isn't very creamy so it doesn't glide on easily or give precision. But even with its drier formula, the eyeliner doesn't last. I get raccoon eyes when I use this. I ended up just tossing this in my on-the-go makeup bag for when I'm in a pinch and need some liner, but now have put it in my Back to MAC pile even though I haven't used it all up because I already have enough other basic black eyeliners on hand that do a much better job. MAC's eye kohl pencils that you manually sharpen are a more creamy, easier to use option for someone who is looking to MAC for a pencil liner. Skip this one. — 4 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

My go-to liner
This is my go-to eyeliner when I can afford it. It's a bit pricey for the amount you get, considering it only lasts me about a month or 2, if used daily. I love that it goes on smoothly and stays all day with no smudging or raccoon eyes. I always opt for graphblack (black) since I prefer to save color impact for my eyeshadow. I'm currently using a Maybelline brand eyeliner that closely rivals this one and is half the price so if money is a factor, I would search out a cheaper alternative. — 1 month, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

So smooth
I have this in the dark green and blue and it's a beautiful color! It goes on so smooth and creamy and lasts all day! It's a little stubborn to get off with makeup wipes but come right off with liquid remover — 1 year agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
