Hey everyone!

The liquid eyeliner that I have been using a lot lately is starting to dry up, and I wanted to try something different.  So, I picked up the Almay Liquid Eyeliner Pen in Black. 


After using this product several times, I have noticed that there are several pros and cons to this liquid eyeliner. 
Pros:
  • It is so easy to use this eyeliner.  It's just like a marker!  All you have to do is draw the line on your eyelid. 
  • This eyeliner has a really fine felt tip, making it easy to draw a really thin line on your eyelid.  You can be much more precise in your eyeliner application with this product. 
  • You don't need to dip the eyeliner tip into the container for more product when you use up everything on the felt tip.
  • This eyeliner has a sleek, small packaging.  It's really easy to throw this eyeliner into your bag and take it with you everywhere.
  • The lid clicks into place and securely stays in place.  Since I know that the lid won't come off easily, I feel much more at ease about putting this eyeliner in my purse.
  • This eyeliner also dries really fast after you apply it to your eyelid.  Since I have a monolid, when I open my eyes, the part of my eyelid closest to my lash line slides underneath the rest of my eyelid.  So, if the liquid eyeliner doesn't dry immediately, it will smear all over my eyelid when I open my eyes.  I love knowing that I can open my eyes after applying this eyeliner and it won't smear everywhere!
Cons:
  • This eyeliner is not as dark and black as I would like it to be.  For my liquid eyeliners, I prefer wearing a really dark, black color.  With this eyeliner, I need to go over the line several times to get the color black enough. 
  • This eyeliner is not waterproof and doesn't work well if you have oily lids.  When it gets hot and humid outside, this eyeliner will start smearing and smudging all over the place.  On several really warm days, I have noticed large black smudges all over my eyelids because of this eyeliner. 
I hope you enjoyed this review, and let me know if you have any questions or requests in the comments below as well!
