SWATCHES PURPLE AURA & ROYAL BLUE
In the picture below you are able to see swatches of both colors. I layered the eyeliner 3 times so that you are able to see the difference. More layers will make the color of the eyeliner more visible. As you can see, one coat isn't enough, you really need at least 2 coats to be able to see the nice color of the eyeliner. Purple aura is actually quite a lovely color, i might going to wear this to work hihi.

IS THE FLICK IT EYELINER OIL-, WATER AND RUB PROOF?
OIL PROOF? YES IT IS! It doesn't even smudge on my oily lids! It stayed on my eyelids for the whole day without re-applying the eyeliner. The color will fade after a few hours but it is still visible. However, this eyeliner isn't tear-, waterproof, so be careful when it's going to rain, when you cry and don't wear this if you are going to swim. Because, if you rub it for a few times, the eyeliner will come off. It won't smudge or smear which is a good thing, but it will flake. See pictures below where I demonstrate it. I've just sprayed some water on the eyeliner and rubbed it with my fingers a few times. The eyeliner is barely visible anymore after rubbing it.

- Felt tip is easy to use and quite precise

- Not expensive
CONS

Overall it's a great eyeliner which stays on the eyelids for a long time, even on my monolids! This eyeliner is very easy to work with and you can create thin as well as thick lines with it. It dries extremely fast which is great for people with monolids. As long as your eyelids won't get wet, it will stay on your lids for hours. It's an inexpensive eyeliner. Too bad that we can't just buy it at a local drugstore here, but I'm glad that it's available on their website: http://www.sleekmakeup.com. People in the UK can purchase it at Superdrug. I probably will purchase the black version in the future. Would you give this a try?
