REVLON MAGIC EYELINER PENCIL SMOKY BLACK

Smoky Black eyes is the most desired look by every single Indian Girl with an iota of interest in makeup.
Seduced by the promises of sultry smoky black kohl rimmed eyes I bought Revlon's Magic Eyeliner pencil.Did it live up to the hype? Read on to find out more.


The eyeliner comes in standard pencil packaging,its shade is very unique I'm yet to see an actual smoky black shade in any other brand. Most other brands veer towards a dull gray, this one has slightly purplish ashy tone to it and I quite like the shade.
The eyeliner is smudge proof, water proof and transfer resistant. Its stays on for 6-7 hours easily and you need industrial strength makeup remover to get rid of it completely at the end of day.


Excuse my panda eyes, I've not been keeping well.....The smokiness of this beautiful shade doesn't translate well on eyes.I had too apply 6-7 swipes to build up the color to even show up.The pigmentation is not up to the mark and this pencil is too waxy.

Price INR 440/- for 1.2 grams Its manufactured by Schwan Stabilo Germany & in India its available at all Revlon counters& also through online makeup stores.


Overall Thoughts-Alas I'm yet to see the supposed  magic in this ,its too expensive for the quality it delivers.Its such a shame because I love the shade I wish Revlon would reformulate this pencil.If you want to look for a similar shade a better alternative would be Faces eyeliner in Gray.

  4. Beautydiva- hey skip this altogether,it too waxy and poor pigmentation,try Gray eyeliner from faces, its a much darker shade than this but much more creamier and totally smudge proof

  5. Nivedita- I like revlon lippies & glosses even their eyeshadows and foundations are ok, but their lipliners & eyeliners just don't cut it for me.

    Gauri-thanks :)
