I've been using shu uemura's liquid eyeliner pens for 10+ YEARS. each pen lasts me 2-3 years and I only need to replace the cartridge maybe once a year. when my most recent pen finally broke down (note: I bought it at the end of 2019) because the brush tip no longer reached a point - I made a trip into Sephora to find a quick replacement. I figured there'd be decent dupes by now. yeah no. NOT A SINGLE LIQUID EYELINER APPLICATOR CAME CLOSE. Also what's up with all the foam applicators? I tried literally all the brands, bought the best one I could find (Make Up Forever) - but it was still totally disappointing. If you, like me, need crisp, delicate, sharp lines, an easy to remove and clean up liner (water will suffice) - this pen, which actually still has bristles, is the only thing that will do the job. Yeah I think I will be using these pens until I die.

This is my first time purchase shu uemura eyeliner, very impressive, very good eyeliner, easy to draw the line smooth, stay whole day and good quality. I will buy again .

I did not realize this is NOT a liner with ink!! I hope I can return it. Just opened it today and realized my mistake. Lame!!

I like the brush it make it easy to apply like writing with pen

Brush tip eyeliners are the best and shu has the best. Reminder you must buy the ink separately which this last lady on here didn't read before buying. It's worth the price because once that ink is on it actually stays. My skin in naturally oily and I always smudge my eyeliner from just blinking except with this eyeliner. Forget Stila forget Kat von d forget any other eyeliner - I literally have not found anything else that's better.
