The hugest problem I have with kohl liners is keeping them sharp. I seem to always be losing my pencil sharpeners, and the retractable kinds that you twist up usually aren’t sharp enough to produce that perfect wing that I love. Thankfully, Smashbox has come out with an eyeliner that sharpens every time you twist the cap on and off.
I was very pleased to receive Smashbox Always Sharp Waterproof Kohn Liner in Raven in my swag bag at The Makeup Show LA’s Blogger Preview event. I actually got about 4 or 5 free black eyeliners from various brands, but I think this one is my favorite out of all of them, and is what I’ve been using for the past few weeks. It’s easy to use because of how sharp the tip stays, so I can use it to apply a perfect wing while still being able to tight-line and use it on waterline too. I can’t say that about any of my favorite gel liners, which is usually what I use. Raven is a great jet-black too – one of the problems I have with some kohl liners is that ‘black’ really means ‘dark gray’ most of the time. Not this time, though!

Ditch your sharpener, but stay sharp. Inspired by Smashbox pros who sharpen before every use on set, this first-of-its-kind pencil that has the precision of liquid liner in a fool-proof pencil. The sharpener inside the cap ensures a perfect tip every time.

does the constant sharpening leave a mess in the cap? I've never used a product like this!

That looks like a nice liner. Self sharpening is a great idea. Your liner application is beautiful.

The way you draw your liner is always so perfect!

I love these Smashbox liners. I end up using an angled liner brush with these most o the time instead of applying from the pencil.

I usually find the same problems with kohl pencils/liners. Keeping the shape of them is tricky so this sounds like a good one.
