My Take on It Cosmetics No-Tug Waterproof Gel Eyeliner – Black:

Packaging: It Cosmetics No Tug Waterproof Gel Eyeliner comes in a dull metallic silver card box which is difficult to photograph. The card box is labelled with all details and ingredients list. The gel eyeliner pencil is retractable and closes tight.

Formula and Longevity: It Cosmetics No Tug Waterproof Gel Eyeliner has a very creamy and soft formula. It is a gel eyeliner in a retractable pencil form. It glides on like silk without any friction and has been rightly named “no-tug” waterproof gel eyeliner. You get a 30-second time lapse to smudge it before it sets completely to a semi-matte finish. Once set, it is smudge proof. Also, it is waterproof and can be easily removed with any makeup remover or cleanser. It is long wearing and stays in place all day long; 8 hours on average without fading from the lash line. On the waterline, it starts fading after one hour of application, so not a good choice for waterline application. It is totally safe for sensitive eyes and doesn’t cause any irritation or tears. Also, it is free from harmful chemicals and fragrance.

Shade and Pigmentation: It Cosmetics No Tug Waterproof Gel Eyeliner in the shade “Black” is a dark and deep black shade; not soft black, but also not neither ebony black. With a semi-matte finish like gel eyeliner, it carries rich pigmentation to deliver full color in one swipe.

Due to the creamy soft texture, it glides on effortlessly and delivers a thick line. You need to sharpen it quite often to get thin and crisp lines.
