What a waste of money, theses pencils don't stay on 5 minutes! Wish I'd never bought them

I thought this product was initially wonderful; soft, easy to apply and stayed unsmudged. Impossible to sharpen , though; the wooden part would not sharpen evenly, so sharp bits were left to scratch the eyes and / or the pencil part would then break off. After several attempts I am now left with a useless stub . A great pity - but I wouldn't waste money buying another.

Amazing Eyes Pencil 05 Black - Is this the original pencil? Absolute waste of money. Product will not make a decent mark or draw any line on my eyelid (mature skin) or on my daughter's (youthful skin) over the eye shadow. Sharpening the pencil makes no difference. It does not deserve even one star.

This is the worst pencil ever. Why have you changed it. The old one with the rubber on the end was great easy to sharpen. I have tried with a boots sharpener and still it breaks.

I first bought it about a month ago and loved how it stayed put on my eyes. No smudges and lasted a whole day. BUT the problem started when I needed to sharpen it. It broke off and left sharp edges which scratched my eyes. Try to shapen it again, broke of yet again. Seriously, the colour is great (black) but why is it so darn hard to sharpen?! It made me go off it sadly and had to buy another brand wich wasnt as good, but at least it didnt leave me with tears flowing after yet another bloody scratch.

This pencil is very soft with a good colour payoff. It doesn't pull your skin and has a creamy texture. It's easy to apply, but not as precise as a gel or liquid liner, I find that it works better for a smudged look or as a base. The softness of the pencil does make it difficult to sharpen it to a point, which is why I wouldn't recommend it if you are looking for a very precise line. It lasted a for a whole ten-hour work shift in a warm environment and I was impressed with it's staying power. It's also really easy to remove, which is always a bonus! Overall I think it's average value for money, there are cheaper brands that make very similar and equally good products.

This product is great stays on all day and glides very smoothly when applying, makes your eyes stand out definatly recommend

This pencil, I'm in love. So black and goes on great. I always use eye liquid, but after using this pencil i think I'll change back ;).

Good coverage and easily applied but no better than other products from less expensive ranges. style of pencil makes it easy to sharpen which is a bonus compared to cheaper products.

I have bought the original No 7 Amazing Eyes Pencil 15 Blue Grey for many years and loved it, once applied the colour line lasted with no smearing. This product has recently been changed and I hate it. It now smears instantly and does not create the smooth colour line. It constantly needs sharpening and quite frankly is a waste of money. I have rang Boots customer care line and my comments will be past on, she also gave me a reference number so I can return the inferior new product back to the shop. Bring back the original Boots!
