This is my 5th purchase and I can only use Kanebo products.
It allows you to smoothly apply it to the outer corners of your eyes. I'm grateful that I can draw a clear, thin line easily even when I need to touch up my makeup. With the eyeliner I used before, even when I wanted to redraw the parts that had disappeared while I was out, I couldn't apply it like I did in the morning because of wrinkles. I use this eyeliner carefully, only on the parts where I want a thin line. After applying it, it will last longer and be less likely to smudge if you leave it as it is rather than blending it with a small brush.
It's been a while since I last used gel liner, but over time, the area under my eyes has become slightly darker. I wish I'd tried it before buying it... I prefer eyeliner and mascara that stay on even if they're hard to remove, so I'll try this a little longer and if it does come off, I'll switch to something else. The ease of drawing the line was great.
I tried it in the store and it was so good that I bought it. The beauty consultant also said that it adheres better to the skin and doesn't come off as easily as other brands, so she recommends it. It's smooth and doesn't hurt. I'll definitely buy it again!
I used to get panda eyes in the evening, but this eyeliner doesn't make them look like pandas, so I like it. When I used a similar eyeliner, I didn't like how it would fill in the gaps between my lashes and make them look flat, but this doesn't have that problem, so I love it! I can't tell you how many times I've bought it again!
