Customer Reviews

VERY good, but not quite great4
This eyeliner really matches the description, it goes on super smooth and doesn't tug or drag. I was told at the counter that it was "water resistant" but it's really not. I used to wear it under my lower eyelashes, but by the end of the day, it would be totally smudged and gross. I would even try to put powder over it, but to no avail. However, in defense of Laura, I am over 40 and the fine lines below my eyes aren't friendly to many pencil eye liners. I was just hoping against hope that Laura's would be different! So, now I only use it over the upper lid!

Totally Addictive5
This pencil in black turquoise is amazing. Not flat black, not cheap turquoise... more like a rich, deep, soft black with a teal undertone. You would never think turquoise once it's on, but it makes my brown eyes pop like nothing else I've ever tried. I was wearing it when I agreed to a free makeover at Bergdorf's in NY, and the NARS makeup artist was so intrigued she actually asked me what it was. When I said Laura Mercier, she murmured "no wonder." I have spent so much on cheap eye pencils that end up in the trash... no more. One of these every couple of months when I'm due for a treat! (Nothing from NARS even came close for the eyes, but I did buy their famous blush.)

OK, so I'm totally used to using a black eyeliner and I have green eyes and light skin, so I started to realized that it's a bit too much for an everyday wear. I decided to layer my black eyeliner with this eyeliner and WOW! I've been getting sooooo many compliments! It gives that unique glow to the top lids and if you line the bottom lid (back and forth light strokes) it looks even better. Good luck and I'm certainly hoping this color will never be d/c'd. I love getting Laura Mercier products because it alllways comes with some sort of a free gift and I end up buying it too!Goodluck!
