Sephora’s Contour Eye Pencil in My Boyfriend’s Jeans

Nearly a metallic finish, just barely not reflective enough to really count as “metallic.” This pencil had some minor issues with uneven application, but it wasn't too bad. (It wasn't as patchy as some of the UD pencils!) The color is bright, not quite a “shockingly vivid” blue, but close. Definitely a “primary” blue.

A montage of three images: top left, close-up of the eyeliner tube or pencil barrel; top right, the eyeliner applied over bare skin, to better show the shade and properties; and below, the eyeliner applied on the eyelid at the lash line.

I don't know that I'll wear this one too much only because it's such an intense shade of blue that it makes my blue eyes look kind of washed out. The pencil quality is great. The color just isn't the best match for me. I could probably wear this as an accent-liner shade, with a deep navy or a black-brown. But on its own, it's not a fantastic color for me.
