NYX Cosmetics’ Epic Wear Liner Stick in Pink Spirit

This color applies very well: smooth, even coverage, no skipping or thin spots. The pencil is a little firmer than some in this collection (like Dusty Mauve) but it is still a soft liner pencil. I ended up not enjoying this color on me as much as I thought I would. It’s a neutral pink, and I look better in cooler pinks. It’s bold without being bright, which means that it’s not a skintone match for too many people that I can think of, so “soft-glam liner shade” is kind of out.

Well, usage quibbles and personal-shade reservations aside, this is a well-performing liner. It stays malleable for a little while after application, like the rest of the liners in this collection. Then it sets firmly, and won’t flake or fade until you take it off - I personally wore this one for 12 hours with no slacking in performance.
