better than the more expensive eyeliners [SEP] i love this eyeliner i have tried every brand and new eyeliner that claims to stay and non have lasted as long as this eyeliner i have tried revlon maybelline stila almay physicians hard as candy cover girl anastasia elf etc anything sold in stores and everything with high ratings i have ordered they never last as long i have even slept in this eyeliner and its still on when i wake up if i rub my eyes it will smear some but not all off i just wipe where i do not want it and i am good to go even when my eyes water it stays onits also very easy to sharpen unlike some other wooden eyeliner my local wal marts used to carry dark brown but do not anymore and are always sold out of the black so i was so excited to find it on amazon i ordered of each and hopefully will be able to buy more
