When buying an eyeliner, you want it to last a good length of time, be clearly visible, and be easily applicable. I find the colour white to be tedious when it comes to staying in place; it seems to be more 'slippery' than other colours. However, this little stick is quite satisfactory in all areas and more as it can be used to highlight the eyebrows as well, being that it is actually a kohl pencil, not simply an eyeliner.
The pigment is rather clear and bright, showing up very well, and can be applied with ease. The colour lasts for quite a while on the eye and gives you roughly 5 or 6 hours of duration unless disturbed. The nib is soft and doesn't scrape harshly on the skin, which is particularly useful when working around the delicate eye area. The kohl pencil's packaging is nice too - it is small and compact, and really very simple in design. The price, at £2.99, is cheap compared to its quality, so it's no money-spender either.
Unfortunately, the pencil isn't very easy to rub into the skin so as to blend it, making it somewhat difficult to use as a brow highlighter. And when wet (even by watery eyes), the colour tends to fade or collect in the inner corner of the eye like a little white dot of sleep. It is also incredibly simple to rub off - not exactly a good thing when the eye is so commonly touched without thought. Overall, I find that this kohl pencil is pretty good as white eyeliners go. As long as you avoid rubbing your eye too much, you should be fine.
