no these are not eyeliners [SEP] i ordered these hoping that they would be something similar to jordanas eyeliners from the early s nope these could be used as coloring pencils such as one would use on paper but they are far too tough for skin i tried this on my wrists first also tried on my cheek i was smart enough after discovering how much pressure had to be brought to bear to not try this on an eyelid these eye pencils are not soft enough for use even on eyebrows much less on eyelids also discovered that my makeup remover which works on everything including waterproof mascara barely budges the stuff once you do manage to get it to mark skin these really are like a coloring pencil for a kid i like a firmer eyeliner not a fan of maybellines tattoo stuff for example because it is too smushy but this is way at the other end of the spectrum sigh back to searching i guess
