HOLIKA HOLIKAMellow Gliding Pencil Liner - Waterproof, Smudge-Proof Eye Liner with Sharpener - Ultra Creamy, Blendable & Soft Textured for Eyeshadow & Contour Eye Makeup (05 PURE MELLOW)

Creamy and lasts a long time on the aegyo sal and it’s a pretty color that’s not too white! The touch of pink makes it look more natural

Applies smoothly, color is spot on

This is the perfect color for muted tone makeup. Its dark, but does not lean too warm or too grey. It lasts long and is pretty smudge proof. It is a little thick for my liking, but the pencil comes with a built in sharpener to make the tip pointy, and I guess it prevents it from breaking easily. For this price, i'd buy again!

The HOLIKA HOLIKA Mellow Gliding Pencil Liner is a nice color and has a smooth feel when I apply it to my eye. This liner gave me a nice crisp line and stayed put all day. I did have to use makeup remover to get this off. I really like this liner and I am happy with my purchase.

I mostly got this eyeliner pencil because it says it keeps your eye irritation free, and my eyes get red and irritated from certain liner pencils I’ve used in the past.So far it doesn’t seem irritate my eyes and make then water which is fantastic for me!Also with the creamy formula it glides on smooth and it easy to apply, I always have a harder time with pencils so I love that this is an easy to apply creamy based liner.You don’t have to sharpen this, the pigment stick inside just moves up with the twist bottom.Much more comfortable to apply and a lot easier and no scratches from a regular pencil.I got the color “washed black” and it’s so nice, a nice soft black shade that is blend able and you can smudge it a bit at first but it does dry on pretty quickly yet I can still blend it well with a little brush. After though it stays on my eyes, and it should become it says waterproof so I expected waterproof.My eyes haven’t had a lot of tearing up lately but since it’s allergy season for me, this will be a test if It can withstand running eyes. It does feel like it will though. Stays on strong.Just watch out with this liner when you’re using it so it doesn’t break off the top and you don’t lose any of the product. If you have the liner twisted up too high and are applying it, it will break up easily, and that happened to me.I really like this eyeliner, the cremy base, the smooth feeling when applying and ease of use. It seems good to me!

I ordered this as my previous liner pencil ran out, and couldn't be happier with it!It glides on pretty smoothly and dries quickly, much more appropriate for a hard liner style than a softer one, but it doesn't transfer or smudge once dry and stays put for the entire day. While they included a sharpener with it, I tend to rotate slightly each use so that it stays at a fairly fine point and don't really need the sharpener. Removal definitely needs some makeup remover, but that's a fair tradeoff for liner that doesn't run even if I end up with my eyes watering all day due to an allergy attack.I ordered the greige color as I don't like how harsh most black eyeliner looks on me, and usually opt for grey or brown liners for everyday use. This is perfect for me--it's somewhere between tan, grey, and black, like a 70% warm gray if you're a painter or graphic designer. It's flattering on most lighter skin tones, and goes well with almost any outfit.

I generally prefer brush nibs as I find them easier to apply and to control the thickness of the eyeliner. But it's been a long time since I tried using a pencil liner, and having been familiar with Holika Holika's brush liners, I was curious about their pencil versions.Out of the box, with no adjustments to the liner, the application wasn't difficult. The pencil glides very smoothly--it was an unexpected but pleasant surprise since I recall pencil liners being on the rougher side. Of course, unlike with a brush tip, the pencil liner provides a thicker stroke so it probably won't be super precise if you're looking for very neat lines (unless you sharpen, etc.)I wouldn't say it's necessarily smudge-proof, but it's pretty decent at staying on bare skin. In the first picture, the pencil liner is the thicker stroke on top and below is a brush liner I used for comparison. There's a slight smudge to the pencil mark, but only because I pressed hard to see if I could get it to smudge. It did, but I do think it was quite minimal and if I hadn't rubbed at it right after application, maybe it would have done better.In the second picture, approximately 6-7 hours later, you can see that the pencil liner did hold up better than the brush. I think that's definitely a plus, but this was the result of a test mark on bare skin.The first time I actually wore it out, the liner was a bit smudged by the end of the day. I think this is probably due to wearing makeup and my skin getting oily throughout the day, whereas the test on my hand didn't have the same factors working against it.Overall, I do like it. Not planning on switching over to this pencil for daily use, but I wouldn't mind wearing it on days I'd like a more prominent eyeliner. I'm definitely going to try testing different setting powders and the like to see if that helps with the smudging though.

I usually use this style eyeliner, and of the many different beauty brands in many different prices ranges, this liner stands out in how truly easy it does glide right on! Many just don't have a good, smooth or easy glide when applying. I don't feel any sort of tugging or skipping when using this liner, it absolutely glides on, so smooth and quick! And it definitely lasts all day without smearing. Being that I have oily skin, finding an eyeliner that doesn't smear easily or just run on its own as the day progresses as my skin gets oily is awesome. It also wipes away well with some micellar water or cleanser. This liner is becoming a top favorite of mine and totally one I am going to purchase again when this one runs low. The price is completely comparable to others brands I've been using that don't work well and last like this HOLIKA HOLIKA liner!
