NYX Professional Makeup Epic Ink Liner Black

I was very excited to have received this complimentary from Influenster NYX for my complete honest review. This eyeliner is extremely pigmented. The shade is a deep black and I like that it’s not super shiny or super matte. The brush has a very fine pointed tip which makes it so easy to control and be precise, I personally like a very thin line so that was very important to me. It dries very quickly and definitely doesn’t budge once it’s applied, but I found that it doesn’t clump or flake off if layered and built up. I found it easily comes off with my regular cleanser and/or using an oil cleanser, which I liked because you don’t have to struggle to remove it. I wouldn’t call it completely 100% waterproof as I find it to be removed a bit easy with water when rubbing ... MoreI was very excited to have received this complimentary from Influenster NYX for my complete honest review.

It really does not budge when applied and I really look forward to purchasing the brown shade!

I was excited to try this product because I currently use the KVD tattoo liner as my daily liner and this seemed like a less expensive alternative. The brush tip feels very similar to the KVD liner and the ink is a solid true black. I did find the liquid can bleed out of the tip a little if you don’t keep a light hand, so it can be harder to get a precise line. I’ve experienced this with other brand new liners, and it may become less of a problem as the liner dries out a bit. (I used this for a week so far.) I found the liner lasts mostly throughout my 8 hour workday. There was no smudging but some slight flaking, pretty much the same as I experience with my KVD liner. I attribute this to my incredibly oily eyelids. It wasn’t really waterproof, but other waterproof ... MoreI was excited to try this product because I currently use the KVD tattoo liner as my daily liner and this seemed like a less expensive alternative.

Overall it performs as well as my KVD liner for a fraction of the price, so I will definitely be purchasing in the future. I received this product from Influenster in exchange for my honest review.

The precision of the NYX Epic Ink Liner is a standout feature. The ultra-fine brush tip allows for precise application, making it effortless to create sharp wings or delicate lines. It's a dream for those who seek precision in their eyeliner. This eyeliner offers impressive pigmentation. It delivers rich, deep black color with a single swipe, eliminating the need for multiple layers. The intensity adds drama and impact to eye makeup. It dries down relatively quickly, which is great for preventing smudging or transfer. However, it leaves just enough time for adjustments before setting. This eyeliner is versatile and suitable for various eye looks. Whether you're going for a classic cat-eye, a bold graphic liner, or something more subtle, the precision and ... MoreThe precision of the NYX Epic Ink Liner is a standout feature.

I received NYX Epic Ink Eyeliner as complimentary. The eyeliner certainly made a strong first impression with its deep black color and smooth application. The fine brush tip allowed for precise lines, making it easy to achieve both thin and bold eyeliner looks. During the first few uses, I was pleased with its performance – it stayed put throughout the day without smudging or fading. Unfortunately, my positive experience with the NYX Epic Ink Eyeliner was short-lived. After just several uses, I began to notice that the brush tip started to fray and lose its shape. What's worse, the ink began to leak from the side of the tip, resulting in messy application and requiring constant clean-up. The disappointing deterioration of the brush tip and subsequent ink leakage ... MoreI received NYX Epic Ink Eyeliner as complimentary.

As someone who wears cat 🐈‍⬛ eyed eyeliner almost everyday this budget friendly pen packs a punch. I received this pen in exchange for my honest review and I have worn it almost everyday for the past few weeks this waterproof formula has serious staying power the waterproof formula is smudge proof and also sweat proof many scorching hot summer days and nights as well as getting caught and working in several down pours working outside for 8 hours at times this pen hung on where many would crust or wipe off this pen stayed. I noticed after many uses and hot days in my purse the precision of the felt tip became less sharp but never patchy or crunchy like some formulations. My old favorite is a hourglass brand of pen this may be taking its place as it is more ... MoreAs someone who wears cat 🐈‍⬛ eyed eyeliner almost everyday this budget friendly pen packs a punch.

My old favorite is a hourglass brand of pen this may be taking its place as it is more affordable and can really keep up with my active lifestyle. I really like that I can pick it up locally as well. This pen has outlasted sweat tears and so much more I am very certain I will be buying this pen time and time again I have sensitive eyes that were not disturbed by this pens formula and I think it’s worth mentioning that it is very easy to use and great when you don’t have a lot of time on your hands to get your wings on in record time. Go try this pen you’ll be amazed with the results!

All these reviews are correct

I've been using this eyeliner for quite a while - probably a couple years. Yes, these definitely leak. Pretty much every single one I've ever used. I've never had them drip on me, but it's very irritating to have to keep blotting the leaks off on a tissue, and so much product is wasted from leaks, instead of being used on my eyes, so you actually get less product than you're paying for. It's also laughable that they call this waterproof because it most definitely isn't. It comes off CLEAN in the corner of my eye if it waters even slightly... and that's without even touching it. I have continued to use this product anyway because I like the brush-like tip and smooth, defined, easy application. I use this to give definition to my upper lids and fill in between my ... MoreI've been using this eyeliner for quite a while - probably a couple years. Yes, these definitely leak.

I have continued to use this product anyway because I like the brush-like tip and smooth, defined, easy application. I use this to give definition to my upper lids and fill in between my lashes, and I use Urban Decay 24/7 waterproof pencil liner over this for a softer finish and to actually waterproof it. Liquid liners run out so quickly that I can't justify spending $20 on other brands, so that's another reason I still buy this one.

Great Eyeliner, Terrible Casing

I have bought this eyeliner consistently for the last couple of years because I like the finish, which is long wearing.However, sadly it's time to give up on it. I have literally never had one that goes not end up with two key issues:-within a few weeks, the liquid starts leaking. It will form large bubbles and drips from the top seam, and become unusable, usually covering your hand with black liquid in the process!-the brush tip also always separates. I will initially snip off the strays with a pair of scissors, but eventually it will separate to the point where it's also unusable.The net result is that I tend to use one of these eyeliners for a month or so, and despite having plenty product left in it, I have to throw it out and get a new one. It's not cost ... MoreI have bought this eyeliner consistently for the last couple of years because I like the finish, which is long wearing.However, sadly it's time to give up on it.

It's not cost efficient and I've read so, so many reviews saying the same thing. I must have gone through at least 20 of these eyeliners and every single one has had the same issue, without fail. I have repurchased because I really like the actual product, but I feel I can't justify continuing to do so.Great product, terrible packaging. Will only repurchase if they finally address this issue, so I'm off to find something new!

Not 100% waterproof, but comfortable enough that it doesn't matter.

If you want an eyeliner that is 100% waterproof, look elsewhere. If you want an eyeliner that will stay on all day throughout normal activities and feel like you’re not wearing any eyeliner at all, this is the one. It will come off a bit if you cry or have watery eyes. It will bleed a bit if your eyelids aren’t set before applying and/or if your eyelids are on the wrinkly and oily side, like me. However, it is SO comfortable and easy to apply, and take off. I was having a hard time with liquid eyeliner for a while, because so many of them DO stay on all day - like, even when you want to wash off your makeup for the day, and end up having to try to scrub your eyelids off with a combination of makeup remover and oil just to get your eyeliner mostly removed.

My eyes do tend to water a bit with allergies too, and it honestly doesn’t come off on the outer corner of my eye unless it’s a particularly bad allergy day. It also doesn’t sting my eyes if it DOES end up coming off a bit, like a lot of other liquid eyeliners do. If you’re looking for a basic, every day black liquid eyeliner that doesn’t feel super heavy or sticky on your eyelids, this is the one.

Unusable after a few weeks

Because of my eye shape, I have yet to find a liquid eyeliner that doesn't transfer underneath my eyes throughout the day (especially if i'm talking or laughing or sweating a lot), and this eyeliner is probably the least guilty offender even if it does still transfer a little bit. My only real issue is that I have not owned a single tube of this liner that hasn't started leaking after a few weeks. I always end up having to throw it out because it will start leaking pools of black ink onto my face. I have tried storing it upright and not moving it much but it just doesn't work. I don't really know why it always starts leaking, but it almost always ruins my makeup if i try to use it after it's begun leaking, because it will put way too much product onto my eyes. it ... MoreBecause of my eye shape, I have yet to find a liquid eyeliner that doesn't transfer underneath my eyes throughout the day (especially if i'm talking or laughing or sweating a lot), and this eyeliner is probably the least guilty offender even if it does still transfer a little bit.

I don't think i've ever been able to use one of these liners until it dried out, as opposed to many of my other eyeliners like colourpop or wet and wild. Especially because of the price point I think it's kind of unacceptable that this liner has this problem, but i'm probably still gonna use it anyways because you can kind of work around it by blotting the leaking ink off of the felt tip as you use it.
