As the name says, this liquid eyeliner is "superslick." I glides on with the greatest of ease, but there is not a lot of it. Women tend to "love" liquid eyeliner (those who "can do it"), or hate it (those who "can't do it"). I taught myself how to apply it decades ago, and can use the drug-store brands fairly easily. And they're a lot cheaper.
So is this a "good value"? Can you do just as well with drug-store at one-third the price? It depends. First, if you're still teaching yourself how to apply liquid eyeliner, this is a great choice because it's very forgiving. It glides on and is easier to control than drug store types. Second, if you're looking for a nice color (instead of black, off-black, charcoal, maybe dark brown) then this is a good choice because the colors are soft, not bright and weird. I got "Treat Me Nice" which is a nice green. Why the name has no connotation of green - you'll have to ask the Madison Ave types. It's green, and reviews out now say that green is very flattering to all skin types. This is not a super-dark green. I have those, and they simply look black or brown once the rest of the make-up is applied. This one stays looking a nice soft green. Not garish, a la 1960s.
So all in all, I conclude it's a good deal. The quality of the product more than makes up for the rather skimpy quantity. In general. And it did last all day, while the drug store types start to flake off after about 8 hours. So, recommended.

This eyeliner worked out great - it stayed put and I didn't have a hard time applying, which is a big problem with me and liquid eyeliners. My only complaint is that when it does come off after a shower, it ends up getting clumpy and getting everywhere... I guess I should get in the habit of removing my make up before I shower anyway...

I was so excited to get this eyeliner, but when i finally used it, it was super watery! The color pigmentation was horrible as well. I probably just got a really bad eyeliner, but I won't buy anymore of these liquid eyeliners.
