Intense Black Kohl Liner

Black pencil eye liner has never worked well on me. It always smudges so I can't wear it often or for a long period of time. I learned to use gel eye liner back in middle school and this was my go to liner of choice through high school. I have experimented with pencil eye liners again in recent years, but still had not found an amazing black that wouldn't smudge unless I wanted it to.

Enter Topshop Waterproof Kohl Pencil Liner in Ebony ($10 for 0.04 oz.). I read Kristen Stewart loves this pencil, and since she's always rocking a smoky eye, I knew it must be good. This soft, creamy, intense black pencil lasts all day on me without smudging, even without primer. I am really impressed with the wear time of this pencil. Normally gel or liquid liner has this long of a wear time on me throughout the day. Since it’s so creamy I find I have to sharpen this almost every time I use it. This pencil would be even better if it was longer because I don’t see it lasting that long and it would be nice if you could sharpen it to more of a point. Topshop only has this pencil in Ebony (black) or Gunpowder (gunmetal). I’m hoping they will eventually have this pencil in brown!
