Even after rubbing vigorously with my fingers five seconds later, it stayed put. Being waterproof, it absolutely didn't budge with water. I tried removing it with cleansing oil, but it was stubborn. You'll need a dedicated eye makeup remover for thorough cleansing. The color is a lovely brown that's perfect for warm complexions. Shade 3 is a dark brown that works beautifully as an eyeliner.
ConsA makeup remover is an absolute must. It's so long-lasting that you'll need a specialized remover to take it off completely.

Above all, it absorbs beautifully. It glides on smoothly around the eyes without causing any irritation, which is really satisfying. With its subtle pearl-infused natural brown shade, it's perfect for creating a casual, everyday eyeliner look.
ConsThe only downside is the inconvenience of having to sharpen it. Other than that, there's nothing to complain about.

Once applied, it doesn't smudge, so there's no need for touch-ups - it lasts incredibly well. The color is a natural brown with a hint of shimmer that looks beautiful. I'm not usually a fan of shimmer, but this one is subtle and lovely.
ConsWhile I'm using it as an eyeliner, it does tend to thicken after a few uses, so a cotton swab is essential. There's a pencil sharpener at the bottom, but when I first used it without knowing better, the incredibly soft lead broke off in one piece, leaving me heartbroken. Don't use the sharpener! I haven't touched it since, and only just now noticed it was still there when I checked again.
TipOnce the pencil dries, it becomes quite difficult to remove, so if you want to make any adjustments, you need to act quickly with a cotton swab!

I loved that it didn't irritate my eyes. The color? It's like a cinnamon mocha brown, not too intense, which gave a natural look. Overall, it felt safe to use. I also appreciated the inclusion of shimmer.
ConsThe downside is... it tends to smudge. And there's some excess after about 3 hours... that was a bit disappointing. That's why I deducted one star... For those of us who are a bit lazy like me, having to touch up makeup constantly due to smudging and fallout can be a bit of a pain!
TipIt works well if you apply it over a matte base makeup.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsTo be honest, the standout feature was how well it absorbs. It glides on so smoothly and feels incredibly soft. The color is a shimmery black-brown that works well with any look!
ConsApart from how well it absorbs, everything else was rather disappointing. I'm not really impressed. While it applies smoothly, that also means it smudges and comes off easily. It's not as waterproof as claimed. The shimmer is more noticeable than expected, which makes me less likely to use it. There's quite a bit of sparkle, and it's more visible than I anticipated. While those who prefer dramatic makeup might like it, I'm a fan of matte finishes, so this wasn't for me. I wouldn't recommend it.
TipWell, you might be able to make it work if you set it with some powder.

This product blends easily right after application. When I came back from being out, there was no smudging under my eyes at all. However, because I frequently use artificial tears, the product on my inner corner lash line did fade a bit. The first one is Lilybyred eyeliner in Walnut Brown. The second is Sister Ann in Cinnamon Mocha. The third is Merge's eyeliner. All three products have been well-used, so when I first opened them, the originally sharp tips were already quite blunt. The lines aren't particularly thin, so if you want to create a sharp wing, I'd recommend using an angled brush or a different product! I was already using a different shade of the same product, but personally, I find this color isn't too dark, so I use it more for defining my lower lash line rather than creating a sharp line.
ConsThe product isn't extremely slim, and because it has shimmer, it might be better suited as a stick eyeshadow rather than for precise lining.
TipFor someone like me who finds black eyeliner too harsh but still wants a defined yet soft line, this works better for defining my lower lash line rather than creating sharp wings.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe Hwahae Testers review: My preference: I usually favor pencil types and enjoy ones that glide on smoothly without irritation or dryness. Waterproof or not doesn't matter much, but it should have minimal smudging! First off, this product applies incredibly smoothly. When I first tested it on the back of my hand, it glided on as softly as velvet. The brown shade has gold shimmer embedded in it! I love using brown eyeliner and blending it out with a shimmery brown eyeshadow, so having the shimmer built-in makes it look even more natural. It applies so smoothly that you might wonder if it'll smudge, but even after rubbing vigorously, it doesn't budge or smear at all! The shimmer stays put without fallout. I have eyes that are prone to eyeliner smudging, and usually end up with a second line under my eyes by the end of the day. But with this, there was no smudging at all. Highly recommended! The product design is great too - it's a twist-up auto type with a built-in sharpener at the end, so you can always keep it pointed for precise application. The overall value for money is excellent!
ConsAlthough it's labeled as waterproof, it comes off quite easily with just a bit of rubbing with a wet wipe. It's definitely not truly waterproof! It's fine if you don't rub it after it gets wet, but if you do, it comes right off. Other than that, I didn't really have any other complaints!
TipUsing this product as an eyeliner and then blending it out with a shimmery brown eyeshadow creates an even more sultry and natural look.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst off, I love the color! Black eyeliner can look too harsh and intense, but this brown (with a beautiful pearlescent finish) creates a naturally defined look. It applies smoothly and you can use a cotton swab for a thin, precise line. Let's be honest, who only uses the pencil to draw their line anyway? Cotton swabs are the real MVP here! When I first tested it on my hand, the staying power seemed great. If you don't have particularly oily eyelids, this seems like a great product for the price.
ConsMy eyelids are super oily, so I usually can't use drugstore products and stick to heavy-duty formulas (only for special occasions - even just mascara makes my eyes pop!). I was so impressed after swatching this on my hand that I wore it to work... Big mistake. The humidity probably didn't help, but I came home looking like a panda! Sure, using an eye primer, setting powder, and a fixer might help it stay put, but at that point, I might as well use my usual products. It's a shame because I like the color and how it applies, and it seems to have minimal harmful ingredients. I wanted to switch to this, but it just doesn't work for me. Still, thanks to Hwahae, I get to try various products!
Tip1) Top tip for non-smudging eyeliner: Be born with eyes that don't make makeup run. 2) In a pinch, dust some powder on your eyelids (not recommended for hard contact lens wearers). 3) Always use an eye primer, folks! 4) Carry travel-sized cotton swabs and cleanser with you.

The color is warm and soft, making it perfect for those who find brown liners more flattering than black ones. It's a true brown without any reddish undertones. I was amazed by how well it absorbs. It glides on like butter, creamy and smooth, feeling completely non-irritating. It sets quickly after application, minimizing smudging. This could easily become a staple in your makeup routine!
ConsBeing a pencil type, it's a bit tricky to create thin or sharp lines compared to brush-tip liners. Also, after a while, there's a slight smudging on the lower lash line. However, it's still one of the least smudgy pencils I've tried. This might vary from person to person though.
TipIt looks beautiful when applied on the lower lash line for a semi-smoky effect, and a light application can create a lovely eye-lengthening look!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThis is a review from The Hwahae Testers The color is a light pearl brown with a reddish tint. It's quite thick, making it great for those with monolids to use as an eyeshadow substitute. When applied, the pearl shimmer is more visible than expected, creating a beautiful sparkle. I thought it would be perfect for times when you want a bit of shine without overwhelming glitter, especially when your skin looks dull. I was surprised by its impressive staying power, and then I realized it's a waterproof formula! I tried it during my part-time job and was amazed that it barely budged despite being drenched in oil and sweat. I'm very satisfied with its longevity. Gently filling in the under-eye area, front hairline, or triangle zone with a light hand creates a really pretty and effortless look. I was extremely pleased with it for under-eye use.
ConsI prefer to create a sharp, sleek cat-eye, but the line tends to look blunt no matter how much I try to wing it out, making my eyes appear stuffy. Even though the tip is pointed, the formula is quite soft, so if you apply a bit more pressure, it smudges and becomes even more blunt. It doesn't smudge well intentionally, and it sets almost immediately after application, which I found disappointing. I prefer products that allow some time to blend before setting, as I like to smudge my liner. So I kept having to use cotton swabs with makeup remover to fix it, which ruined my makeup. This was the most inconvenient aspect. Also, due to the color characteristics, it lacks definition. In other words, if you like a subtle look, this might suit you well, but I dislike the washed-out appearance, so I had to go over it with a darker pencil or brush pen.
TipRecommended for: - Those with monolids looking for a pencil to use as a thicker eyeshadow alternative - People wanting an under-eye liner (or eyeshadow substitute) - Those who prefer subtle makeup Note: If you want to create a sharp wing, try drawing with this and quickly shaping it with a cotton swab before it dries, or go over it with a darker brown pencil or brush pen. Note: The attached photo shows the result after wearing it for 6 hours during my part-time job! It barely faded, and I shaped the wing separately with a cotton swab.
