Do you remember a point in time when drugstore pencil eyeliners absolutely sucked? We’re talking hard as rock liners that basically scratched your lid when you tried to draw them on your eye? Ones that were so bloody hard you had to hold it up to a lightbulb in order to heat up the product enough so that you could actually have a hope in hell of drawing it on your eye without gouging out your eyeball? I sure do! And boy, oh boy – pencil eyeliners have come a LONG way since then!
And these Revlon So Fierce! Vinyl Eyeliners are some of the best I have used. We’ve come a long way, baby – and it feels good!
The Revlon So Fierce! liners have a gel-like consistency. They glide on the eyes with ease, and I promise you that you won’t have to tug on your eye to get the colour on there! The liners do have a vinyl-like shine to them (as their name would suggest), but I don’t find it INCREDIBLY shiny. We’re not talking like… super shiny here. There’s only a hint of a shine.
The colours are opaque right off the bat too! So not only are you getting an easy colour deposit, but you’re also getting a TON of colour to go with it. I found that I was able to smudge these out if I moved very, very quickly after applying it. They will set relatively quickly, so you need to move fast! The upside to that being that once you get them in place, they’re not going to transfer anywhere. And since I’v egot hooded lids, I was super appreciative of that. I will often find that a pencil liner will transfer to my upper lid – which is one of the reasons I’ve avoided wearing pencil liner on my upper lash line. With these? No issue! They stayed put!
Final Thoughts
Wow! I wasn’t expecting the Revlon So Fierce! Vinyl Eyeliners to be THIS good. I’d kind of given up on using pencil liners a long while ago because they just transferred far too much to my upper crease area. I’ve been opting to wear most pencils on my water line instead… until now! These glide on and stay put, and that’s exactly what I need in a pencil liner for my upper lash line.
I’m impressed with the colour selection too – you’re not just getting your basic black and brown, but also a wonderful grey, a deep maroon and even some fun blues in the mix. (There is a brighter blue in the collection too, but I didn’t receive that particular shade.)
In short, these are freaking fabulous!
