L'Oreal Extra-Intense Liquid Pencil Eyeliner, Black [798] 0.03 oz

I have used this eyeliner for a few months, and really love the way it stays put after applying. However, the wood casing it is enclosed in is very difficult to sharpen, which is usually needed after each use. I am always left with sharp splinters around the liner itself, which is quite uncomfortable and difficult to work with. I have been unable to find the recommended L'Oreal pencil sharpener in any stores, and I'm not sure if it would really make a difference in the application of this product.

I started using this liner around August 2016. I just brought my 3rd or 4th eyeliner pencil. This one does not go on easily as the previous ones I had (which I loved) did. This drags, and smears. It's also very hard to wash off and the others I had were not. I wash my face and I have black greasy feeling smudges left on my eyelids. Did the formula change from what it was to start with??

I bought this product thinking it was a twisting eyeliner, because it exactly looks like one and the bottom part actually twists. I did not notice an explanation oterwise on the package before throwing it away, maybe the writing was too small to pay attention. After failing to elongate the tip, I thought maybe the pencil I bought had a faulty mechanism. Then I came here and learned it needs to be sharpened. Although the eyeliner has great colour and staying on power, I would not have bought it if I knew this. Now two questions 1) Why does a mega-company like Loreal still does not make this more evident on the package, despite many customers being misled and kept complaining since two years? 2) Is there no way to produce a thinner version of this eyeliner with twisting feature?

This product is designed to look like a mechanical pencil that can be twisted to reveal a 'stick' of eyeliner. If it had been clear that it was a pencil that needed to be sharpened, I would not have purchased it. I was specifically looking for a replacement for a similar product from Estee Lauder, which costs much more. Well, you get what you pay for. In this case, in trying to figure out how to expose more of the pencil, I touched the end and it "melted' between my fingers. I haven't even used it once!! L'Oreal has to explain over and over that you must buy their sharpener, and very carefully and gently twist just a few times. Too much trouble!!! And there isn't enough product in there. I have completely wasted my money unless the store will take it back.

This eyeliner is wonderful until you have to sharpen it. Once that first use is over and the nice fine tip is gone , forget it you will never get it sharpened again. I have bought 3 sharpener to try thinking it was my sharpener and nope it doesn't work . If you sharpen it , it will just continually to turn then you go to use it and the eyeliner part will break off or fall out . Love the eyeliner but they need to figure this problem out ! Looks like this is such a complaint I can't believe they can't fix it !

Annoyed by the difficult albeit impossible sharpening feature. I absolutely loved the product until I realized that I couldn't sharpen it. The pencil lasted for exactly four applications before I realized that I didn't have a sharpener industrial enough. Disappointed and sorry I wasted the money. I won't buy this pencil again.

Tip doesn't last long before it needs sharpened, then it never really becomes the sharp tip you start out with. I assumed the pen has a built in sharpener but it does not. Everyone that purchases this should get their money back. Don't waste your money.

After buying and using the pencil 3 times, it needed sharpening. I tried 4 different types of sharpeners including one from a competitive cosmetic line. The wrapped area of the pencil became mangled and left a blunt end on the product which could not be used with any success and in some cases simply broke off. This is a total waste of money and now that I have read the reviews and see the vast majority who say the same thing, L'Oreal should not only reimburse all of us but remove this product from the market.

I have bought two of these and much to my disappointment. I could only use them about twice and they get so dull on the tip that I can not use them. I will never buy this product ever again. I like the Loreal Infallible but it does not last long either but it works much better than the Extra Intense. I tried to sharpen the pencil and it would still not work.

Waste of money with this liner. I wanted an eye liner that would give me liquid eyeliner type consistency but in a pencil form. This one definitely didn't. It smudges and as other reviewers have commented, the pencil doesn't sharpen well and lays on too thick.
