E.L.F. Eye Widener Reviews

reformulate PLEASE
This eyeliner is nothing but a chalk pencil! It's hard, doesn't blend, and crumbles a few weeks after use. I love the pearly sheen, however, and really wish they would consider reformulating this into something smoother and better for our eyes! — 2 years, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Bad formula and doesn't work
I love elf, but this product was a flop. Its formula is terrible, and it doesn't make your eyes look wider. Get a white liner from another product line (suggested: Urban Decay). — 9 months, 4 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Good for other things
I don't think this is a good option for my water line. Like others have said, the color is too sheer and sparkly. It just doesn't look natural enough on the waterline to give you that wide eyed look. It is, however, a pretty decent cheek and browbone highlighter. Just apply it and blend and it gives you that nice highlighted, dewy look Benefit charges well over 10 times the price for. — 1 year, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 2 people said helpful

No. Just no.
Needs to be creamier so that it would actually stay on our eyes. You can rub and rub but it's so solid and compact that none with come off. I'm debating taking the actual colored part out, mashing it, putting it in a little container and adding a tiny bit of glycerin. That would probably make it into an appliable liner at least. — 1 year, 9 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Not at all what I expected
I was expecting a matte creamy white eyeliner, but instead got a sheer hard one. I have tried getting it to work for me so many times and I want to like it so badly, but I just don't. — 2 years, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Didn't really work
I bought this after hearing tips about using white liner to get the wide eye look. This pencil is white but has almost a metallic sheen to it, and when applied to my eyes, the line appeared much more silver than white. It had the opposite effect as well--friends asked me if I was tired or made comments suggesting it. I also noticed that it did irritate my waterline and made my eyes water. Does make an awesome regular liner - the metallic finish works well with duo chromes to enhance color. But I don't think it does what its suppose to. — 2 years, 6 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

I only liked the pencil sharpener!
Didn't do anything for me! I followed the direction on the package and I wasn't able to achieved the "eye widen" look. Instead, my eye area was in pain. The pencil was very hard and rough to use. It left my eye area with red marks. I don't recommend this product at all! — 4 years, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Not so wide...
Springing a whole dollar for a product is not much, I will give you that. But I guess I still expect even the cheapest products to perform a bit. Since I’m typically a thrifty shopper, I know that you can find some truly splendid beauty products for much less than the high-end brands would have you believe. However, the elf Eye Widener Pencil is not one of them. I did like that the pencil came with it’s own sharpener built into the cap, but that cap did not even stay on the pencil. I kept losing it around my makeup case. The pencil itself feels fine in your hand. I applied it to the inner lower lid rim- it’s supposed to brighten your eye lid rim and hence make your eyes look more open. I couldn’t even get the white to show up. It works fine on my hand, but nothing applied to my lid line. I warmer the pencil by rubbing it a bit and tried again, still nothing. So overall, quite the disappointment. Has anyone else tried this product and had a similar or different experience? Of course, I will still shop at elf since most of their products are enjoyable for me and give me the freedom to stock up and play with products without breaking my account. — 4 years, 7 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

did not like at all...
I find this eye widener to be to harsh and hard to apply white on eye. It feels tugging and pulling when applying. Not worth it. — 4 years, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
