NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Epic Ink Liner, Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner with Vegan Formula - Graham Cracker (Light Brown Matte)

This is easily one of the best liquid liners at this price point. The fine brush tip allows for incredible precision, making it easy to create a perfect wing or a very thin line. It dries quickly to a waterproof finish and does not smudge or flake throughout the day. It is a reliable staple for any makeup kit.

My favorite eyeliner right now. This lasts such a long time! I bought this in May 2025, it’s now January 2026 and there’s still some in the eyeliner but thought it was time to get a new one , I can tell it’s running low. I wear make up and use this maybe 2-3x a week. It’s easy to put on , glides easily and you can use the fine tip to get in those little spots close to your lash line. You can make the line super thin or thick. It stays in place all day and partly the next morning when I forget to wash my face . It doesn’t rub off or smudge . It dries quick enough so I can use my eyelash curler immediately. This doesn’t irritate my eyes. The black color is a deep bold black which I like. Great price especially with how long it lasts, I would’ve gone through several eyeliner pencils at this point.

LOVE this eye liner. Best one I have ever used and the brown color is so pretty on fair skin. I have gotten it in my eyes a couple times and it hasn't hurt at all. It lasts a while if you dont touch it, but if you rub your eyes or anything like that it will come off. It dries super quickly and I typically curl my lashes right after I put it on and it hasn't smudged yet. My only complaint is that the product leaks out in the cap, so when you open it you get eyeliner all over everything. This has only started happening recently, as I have had it for a couple months. Would recommend anyways.

I love the quality of the eyeliner, but I hate the tip! It frays quickly after opening and closing it. The eyeliner itself doesn’t smudge or bleed easily, is a dark black color, and is easy to apply (before the tip frays).

Goes on easy and bought another in brown. Its much easier to apply especially for behinnners that want straight lines and not to thick. Good precision. I have to say it doesn’t even hurt if you get into your eye by accident. I thought it would hurt like hell. lol. Saw the line on my eyeball and got scared but didn’t feel it thank you God. Rinse right out.

It’s my favorite eyeliner to use, I’ve been using this brand for 3 years and I love it so so much. It apples very easily, the black is pretty pigmented and it dries fast. I sweat a lot and a lot of the times it does not come off, I can leave it on while I’m working and it won’t smudge. There have been times where it does but I blame how oily my eyelids gets.

I absolutely live with eyeliner on every single moment of the day. However, I have very oily eyelids and majority of eyeliners fail to last or stay put on my lids. So I require a very waterproof and smudgeproof formula to at least look good majority of the day before my oils decide to ruin it. My preferences for my eyeliners are a opaque black with a brush tip. As opaque and fluid felt tip eyeliners are, they are hard to control around my hooded eyes and sometimes end up becoming dried out even though I've only used the eyeliner a couple times. I've compared this NYX eyeliner against some of my favorites or some well known brands: Maybelline's Hyper Easy, MACQUEEN's Waterproof, EM Cosmetic's Illustrative, Heroine Make Smooth Liquid, Eyeko Black Magic, and KVD's Tattoo Liner. I put each of these up against 4 tests, which I've illustrated in my pictures. Maybelline's new eyeliner held up moderately well, and it's the only formula I've ever found to dry down matte and be this resistant. Of course, my favorite Asian eyeliners from MACQUEEN and Heroine Make are super waterproof and budget roof. Eyeko is also a favorite Asian brand that lasts moderately well. EM Cosmetics did not claim to be waterproof, just resistant, so I've allowed that to slide. I've never liked KVD's formula for my lids, so I'm not surprised that it didn't last. In comparison to those, NYX's formula isn't horrible and would work beautifully for most people, but it definitely can't last through my mighty eyelids. HOWEVER, I absolutely love how opaque the formula is in one swipe and how fluid and even it is. Makes it really easy to do graphic liners! It is also great for creating quick and easy wings (with a precise hand of course since it's so pigmented). I am going to continue using this with a primer or powder because I am enjoying the pigment! If you don't have crazy oily eyelids and would love a dark and even application with a brush tip eyeliner, I would highly recommend this eyeliner! And even if you do have lids like me, I'm sure one could make it work with some preparation!

This eyeliner instantly smudged right off within 3 hours of wear. I have one eye that can get watery, and the eyeliner on that eye did not hold at all. Disappointed after seeing this recommended as a great eyeliner for such things. It also does not dry quickly and rubbed on my eyelids.

Ótimo produto, realmente é à prova d'água, não borrou no calor do verão em São Paulo! Demorou a chegar porque veio da Holanda, mas o prazo foi informado e chegou no último dia do prazo. Recomendo.

This is as good as the Tom Ford liquid liner!! As my eye lids became softer with age and very hard to make a smooth line of liner I always looked for the best one to use so have been using the Tom Ford liquid liner for last 4/5 years and have kept on looking for another one as the Tom Ford one is very expensive. Ultimately I found this one almost as good as the Tom Ford liner. ❤️

I love this brown eyeliner! The shade is rich and natural, perfect for everyday wear.

Super

It’s very easy to use, nice shade of brown but not long lasting. I liked that it came properly sealed.
