Editor Quote: "The first thing I noticed (and appreciated) about the product was how smooth the application was. It seemed almost like the pen was gliding over my eye without me even having to any work. With a few other eyeliner pens I've previously used, one major problem that I've had is not being able to easily build the color after first swiping it onto my lids because of how clumpy the formula would dry. Trying to go back over a wing and add more color would prove difficult since the tip of the pen would snag on the ink that was already there, but thankfully, I didn't have this problem with the Rare Beauty liner. The tip of the pen itself is also pretty firm, which makes creating a wing with a supersharp tip a lot easier than with other products." — Danielle Jackson, former assistant editor
