Some days I am sold with this product, and others not so much.
CONS:
-It has a really slow push on the gel which means you spend half of your time either waiting or clicking too much
-Can be quite wasteful at times
-Takes a lot longer if you apply eyeshadow on first
PROS:
-Doesn't go grey if you apply enough
-Once you get the hang of it can be a fairly quick step in the morning
-Smooth
-Good coverage
Overall I'm not sure if I would get this product again it was an impulse buy for me as it was on sale in Debenhams. It is the ideal size for a make-up bag, apples nicely if you are patiently, doesn't have a drying time and doesn't go grey (if you apply enough). Might get a tiny version of this again but I'm not 100% sold on it. It has cute packaging and overall does what you want you to do, however I haven't given it 5 stars because of the waste of the product. Added some photos of the product below, also the angled tip it...

This takes time to get used too.
It's easier to use with bare eyelids (no eyeshadow) but you can use it with eyeshadow (it just takes time).
I find that sometimes you can get too much product in the tip and it can be wasteful. I really like the matte look that this gives and the fact that you don't have to wait for it to dry. It's quite soft since it has a gel formula (I find pencils can hurt my eyelids) and gets very close to the lash line. It's paraben free and vegan friendly which is another good selling point (okay so after just having found that out I want to buy it). I'm not sure about it being long lasting though. It didnt last very long on my eyelids. I would buy this again as a one off if I just wanted one liner but I do find that for the price my NYC matte black liner (£1.99) does a similar job and lasts all day. I think I may purchase it to keep in my handbag as it would be hard to get the liner long after you've practised and I like how its pen style...
