   I don’t know why I am so surprised that these liners have so much shimmer in them. I guess I didn’t pay all that much attention to the package when I bought them. Having said that, I purchased the Nude trio and the shades are actually very pretty. The downside is that the shimmer ends up all over the under eye area over time. I envy anyone that can wear eyeshadow and eyeliner. My eyes are hooded and slightly down turned so eye makeup is a total waste on me. The best I can manage is mascara (preferably tubing formula) and doing my brows. It sucks but I still try… Despite my crappy eye shape I do think these are pretty decent liners. Love the retractable twist up/down packaging, easy of use, and the formula is relatively creamy/smooth.

   I just repurchased this product for the 3rd time. These are water resistant! So I LOVE to use the black shade in my water line of my top lashes. It applies so beautifully and smooth. I’m even using this for my wedding makeup. I don’t really use these for much besides the waterline but they are awesome! =)

   I bought these based on the recommendation of Hot and Flashy and they’re not bad. Goes on smoothly and doesn’t smudge too bad. It doesn’t irritate the waterline but it doesn’t last there either. Not remotely HG but workable while I look for one that is.

   Absolutely a waste of money. They were dry, the self sharpening pencils broke within minutes and the colors were barely visible. I adore Physicians Formula Nude products, but this was a HUGE disappointment. I threw them away and ate the $12 I wasted.

   I love these eyeliners. They are precise/thin-tipped (with a sharpener to boot!), smooth, pigmented, easy to hold and use, non-irritating, and they last all day (even 16+ hours). They are so smooth upon application that skipping or tugging will never be an issue. They set rather quickly and stay in place – even for eyes that tend to water a lot like mine. I love the shades in this set for “nude eyes” – the champagne and the pewter are fantastic and super great alternatives for ose of us with very fair complexions (when not wanting to look too stark or made up). I could have swapped out the black for another different and softer shade, but am definitely not complaining as it is a good black. I am a fan of Physicians Formula, and am always impressed that they are offered at the pharmacy and for a reasonable price. In the U.S., these can often be found on offer at CVS for such a great deal (even about 5$… For 3 liners!). I would recommend these eyeliners to anyone and will continue to purchase these over and over.

   I will agree with the reviewer below me who noted these are exceptionally creamy and apply easily for pencil eyeliners. I generally use liquid liner on my upper lids because my experiences with many pencil liners has been that they are too dry to be applied without skipping, and because of that the line ends up getting too thick and sloppy.

   These glide on nicely and last literally all day! The colors are nice, neutral and flattering. You have a coppery color, a taupey bronze and a black. They aren’t super glittery but not matte either.

   The price is really reasonable for three full liners; my only real disappointment here was that the packaging could’ve been better. Almost immediately, one of the twist-up tubes released the pencil and it came out. I put it back in the tube, but I’m not sure it will twist up from now on or if I’ll have to toss it.

   Mishap aside, these are very well formulated and long-lasting, and have successfully renewed my faith in pencil eyeliners.

   My sister gave me the eyeliners in black & nude.

   First, I was hesitant to take them because I hadn’t used a pencil eyeliner since 2009! But took them anyway because I’ve been trying to grow a makeup collection & I’m trying to experiment with different products for different looks rather than my everday liquid eyeliner cat eye look.

   Tried the black eyeliner yesterday just for fun & I was SHOCKED how smooth this applies! The pencil eyeliner I used back in 2009 was probably Revlon and it skipped like hell & I was never able to draw a thin line, so I just blatantly rubbed the eyeliner flat onto my lid. But with a pencil sharpener on the bottom and a pre-sharpened eyeliner tip, I can almost recreate my liquid eyeliner look! Does not skip, applies smoothly and is well pigmented for a pencil. The only drawback is that this has some shimmer/sparkles in it. I kind of like it though for a softer, everyday look.

   I haven’t worn this for long term yet so I cannot speak on its longevity, smearing, etc.

   I have not tried the nude eyeliner yet.

   Not sure yet if I would repurchase because I have never thought of using a pencil eyeliner for my looks.

    this is by far one of the best eyeliners i have ever used. the colors are gorgeous, the nudes especially, it is super pigmented with some shimmer, hence the name shimmer strips. it glides on very smooth and lasts all day, and i have pretty oily eyelids. before applying this, i do apply a bit of waterproof eyeshadow primer as well as a dusting of powder to absorb any oil throughout the day. the pencil also glides very smoothly. $12 for 3 pencils is very affordable imo, and is also frequently on sale
