Rimmel London Micro Eyeliner Review

I purchased one of these a few years ago when I was still learning to do winged eyeliner. I had been learning with gel liner but I had been wanting to one day use liquid liner. I thought buying the Micro liner would help me and get myself ready to one day try liquid liner as gel liner seemed to crease on my eyelids.

I like how small the pen was, it was one of the first eyeliner pens I had seen and I was super excited to use it. The tip is fine, I found it very easy to control and I could do a very thin line at the front of my eyelid and slowly build up the line towards the edge of my eyes to create that flick.

The formula is pigmented, and it takes seconds to dry, which I really liked, there were very few occasions I smudged the liner but that was from opening my eye too fast. The liner stays put until you use a makeup remover to remove the liner.

The color is black, not super black but not a faded black. Its not until you have it on your eyelids for a few hours that you notice the colour fades. After a few weeks of using it started drying out. It gets to a point where it is too dry to get a clean precise line.

This pen is great for beginners and for those who don't like an extremely dark eyeliner.

I'm hopeless at applying eyeliner on my eyelids (especially winged) but the fine tip pen made it easy to draw those little lines and fill in however you really do have to draw/colour-in as the colour doesn't really glide on as easily as I'd hoped (like other liquid liners I've tried). Not the best eyeliner I've used and the colour does fade after a few hours but its an affordable eyeliner to play around/practice with.

I'm not a fan of intense liner so I like this one. It lasted for the 6 or so hours I was wearing it and it didn't sting when I applied it like all other liquid liners I have used.

It is by no means perfect. It was quite hard to apply but I honestly don't care as my main issue with eyeliners was ending the day with incredibly sore eyes.

I really like this eyeliner. It's affordable and does a good job at staying put. It takes practise to get the perfect wing but with the pointed tip i find it a lot easier using this one rather then a eyeliner pencil that breaks nearly everytime you try sharpen it to get that nice point for a wing liner. Would recommend

It's okay. Not great but not the worst I've used. It takes a little while for the liquid to flow through the felt tip but once it does, it's very black. I find it nice and easy to use and even I can achieve a wing with it. The only problem I have with this one is that it doesn't stay put. It doesn't smudge or anything, so I'm not really sure where it goes, but after a few hours the intensity that I love is gone. I'll definitely use my current one up, but I probably won't be repurchasing.
