Australis Eye Pencil Blackest Black Review

I've tried many eyeliner pencils over the years, but after using this Australis one, I keep coming back to it. I still try the odd new one out there, but Australis' pencil is definitely a favourite for me. Why?

It's super soft and easy to apply. It glides on smoothly and doesn't pull or drag at the eyelid - I can get the perfect tightline in just one wiggle across my upper eyelid (I can't do that with other brands). The pencil doesn't scratch, the colour is bold and doesn't clump between the eyelashes. It lasts all day (and into the night), and even though the pencil itself does need to be sharpened, it doesn't require sharpening as often as other pencils, so it actually lasts longer, too.

Would I recommend this? Definitely. Would I use it again? I have a spare one waiting in my make-up bag.

I received the Australis eyeliner in a beauty vault purchase. I was pleasantly surprised. I have tried more expensive brands of eyeliner, that were not as pigmented and faded throughout the day. I use this in my tightline to bring some depth to my eyes, and make my lashes appear thicker and more full. It is so easy to apply, pigmented from the first to last stroke. It also lasts all day, and I like how it has to be sharpened rather than wound up.

I’m not a huge fan of eyeliner pencils because having to sharpen them all the time drives me bonkers.

But this pencil did make me reconsider my position on the matter.

This pencil was smooth, didn’t drag and lasted all day (and night).

Yes it did need sharpening, but not nearly as often as I thought it would.

The pencil has also lasted a really long time.

All in all: good quality and value for money.

I was feeling cheap and grabbed this for a try but what a mistake. It’s ok for the price but if your comparing it to what you are use to and that is my usual naybelline you’ll be disappointed.

I found it a bit dry and crumbly so to apply it was a mess, not smooth and rather painful. I see the other reviews rate this quite highly so I am wondering if maybe I got an old stock one which could have been reflected in the cheap price I paid but, yes I was rather disappointed.

It pretty much required removal and was unusable. I think next time I’m in store I will do a swatch and see how easily that applies.

The australis eyeliner pencil has done wonders for my eyes. I love using a good liquid eyeliner at the top of my eyelids but always hate the gap it gives me on my inner eyelids so I use the australis pencil because it doesnt smudge and stays on for the entire day! Highly recommend!

I love this eyeliner it doesnt smudge and goes on efortlessly im not a fan of liquid ive always preferred pencil or crayon and this is definately one of my faves if you are looking for black black eyeliner this is the one you need

I've used an entire one of these eyeliners up it's that good. It doesn't drag or smudge when I wear it. It's pigmented too. I can make it look smudged out if I want it to, but it sets down really well. It's been my go-to eyeliner for a while now.

This eye pencil has been a holy grail for many years, a few years ago when the Velour lips were released they had a gift with purchase which happened to be their blackest black eye pencil. Since then I've tried various black eye liner pencils but always go back to this one.

The packaging is a black glossy finish, there is a pink line that goes around the end of the pencil, it makes finding this pencil easy with all the others.

The formula is soft and creamy, it glides smoothly and it is very pigmented. Applying the eye liner is easy but if I apply it to the top lid ,the pencil needs to be set with powder as it will smudge. This pencil is also great for creating a smokey eye using the eyeliner as a base and then applying eye shadows over the top. Using this on the waterline creates an intense eye makeup, I like to apply this to the waterline and just below it before blending out the edge with a dense fluffy brush.

I will repurchase again, I have repurchased this pencil more than I can count, the price is good and the product works very well.

I'm on the fence with this eyeliner, on the one hand, it does give the blackest line that stays fast, but on the other, it moves around on first application that you end up with the zebra type stripe on your lower waterline. Tried to top it up but then it just drags and just looks clumpy and overdrawn.

On the lid and under the upper lash line it holds super fast and has a great creamy texture that allows you to easily glide it into place and holds a rather pointy sharp tip even though it is creamy which makes application great.

I just can not get over the moving on the water line to make me want to re-use or repurchase.
