The Swatch Files: Stila Kajal Eyeliner in Amethyst

On my waterline, it comes out lilacy but when I put it on my lids, it comes out as a darker purple.
Sorry for the crappy photo of the pencil, I had a better photo which Picasa has conveniently lost.

To get a darker colour on you waterline, I suggest warming the pencil up by rubbing it on the back of your hand.

Re. how long the pencil lasts, I've noticed the following:
  • It lasts all day on the waterline, it is creamy when you apply it but it sticks around for ages, doesn't smudge or anything.
  • If you have brown eyes, it's a really good work-safe colour to use as from a distance, it looks brown but it accentuates your eyes
  • I have been using this on a weekly basis for more than a year and I've only had to sharpen it very recently
