Pros: Won't wear off easily or smudge. Sharpens itself!
Cons: Smaller size than other liners(but that could be a convenience)
The Bottom Line: Line those eyes for a more dramatic you=)

| anae428's Full Review: Cover Girl Perfect Point Plus Eye Pencil |
The reason I bought this product was because I thought the self-sharpening was a nice feature. If you don’t know what this is, think of a #2 lead pencil that kids use in school. They never have to sharpen them, just press down to get more lead. That’s exactly what this product does.
COLORS:
There is a nice variety of colors to flatter all eye colors. There is light brown to jet black, and dark green to midnight blue.
SIZE:
I love the size of the eye liner because when I buy those Wet and Wild $ .99 cent eyeliners, they don’t fit horizontally in my makeup bag. But these, although there is less liner, will fit into virtually any makeup bag, and is comparable to the size of a mascara tube. Very convenient, eh?
STAYING POWER:
I only apply the liner before I go to work (9am) and after work before I go out to dinner with my guy (bout 9pm). So figure, the liner will give a nice hold for the whole day, but a minimal touch-up on your lunch break doesn’t hurt=)
WATER TIME:
Swimming, showering, and washing your face may smear the liner a bit, but not as much as cheaper products do. Overall, I give this liner an 8 out of 10 for staying put.
TOUCHABLE FACE?
Yes, you will not have to constantly worry that this liner will smear underneath your eyes, unless you cry a lot, then I can’t help ya there;)
IRRITANT?
Heck no, this liner has never irritated me. Sometimes I forget to take it off at night or I fall asleep with it on, and I’ve never been irritated by it.
WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE IN THE MORNINGS? (LOL)
Just fine. Remember, if you don’t apply it like Nanny Fran (“The Nanny” who wears too much makeup sitcom), which is way too much, you won’t look like a freak in the morning if, perhaps, you forgot to take it off that night.
HOW TO APPLY IT:
Remember: Focus less on the inner eye and more on the outer (where your eyelashes are longest). This gives your eyes a nice outline instead of a caved-in look. Also, if you’re buying a darker shade, apply sparingly to avoid looking scary. Make a few back-and-forth strokes until you reach your desired amount of liner.
ATTENTION ALL CONTACT WEARERS:
Apply the eyeliner AFTER you apply your fake eyes to avoid rare eye irritation from this product=)
MAKE SURE:
…you match your eyeliner shade with your mascara. Relatively speaking, they should be either both lightweight and light-colored, or dark colored and heavy looking (if you’re into the heavy look). A difference in color will make your eyes look unbalanced, in which case you’d be better off wearing no eye makeup at all.
Enjoy your new look, and remember, all eyes, whatever shape or color, can only be enhanced, not changed into something they aren’t. Stay your natural beautiful self, but use this liner to give your eyes a nice boost!
