Too Faced Sketch Marker Liquid Eyeliner
Packaging:
A matte black cardboard box with raised silver foiled text. The plastic pen follows the same with the script silver font on the majority of the tube. The cap is inspired by calligraphy pens so it has small love heart clip.
It's also spring loaded meaning the pen is 'refilled' every time the lids on which is the best way to get more pigmentation when this runs low. The flexible felt tip is short but thin with a nice tip. The pen is lightweight and easy to hold during use.

Formula/ Texture:
This is a thin, smooth liquid. It is easily applied using the felt tip. After a few uses I do find I get the most pigmentation when this is used with some pressure on the side of the tip. This also produces a thicker line.
If I wanted a thinner line, I'd use the tip of the pen but that produces very weak colour and multiple layers to build the intensity. I don't have time or want to be doing that. It's easily removed with a basic makeup wipe.
It is waterproof to some degree but doesn't withstand the teary eyes I get from windy conditions. Otherwise it doesn't transfer, bleed or cause any eye irritations. On a non windy day when it's intact I can get 8 hours of wear. It's decent but I know I've had other liners with better results.
Holding the pen in different ways with different pressure does produce different line thicknesses which aid in different looks.
I wanted to love this but unfortunately a few elements just didn't work for me.
