MAC Penultimate Liner in Rapidblack Review

Hello Hello folks!
So yes I have only just started my blog and I will try to be consistent with blogging.
Anyway! Today's review is on MAC's penultimate liner which I bought a while ago and must I say, very impressed for the first few usages of it until about a month or so later. I purchased this at Sydney Parramatta's MAC store for if I recall correctly, $32 AUD because the site itself claimed that "
provides the ultimate precise, bold line in a rich, deep carbon black shade." So here's the verdict: 

Price: 7/10 - $32AUD
Longevity during day: 10/10
Longevity overall: 3/10
Overall: 4/10


The first month

  • I fell in love with it the first time I used it. The color was rich, it was bold and deep. The carbon black which I was seeking. It also photographed really well 
  • The staying power was great. I didn't really even have to use primer for my lids for it to stay! It created that great 'pin-up' look anytime. 
  • Handling was really well, the tip was perfectly pointed so rarely did I make any errors. There was no need to feather the liner. 
2 Months later...

  • The color dried out and it was difficult to apply 
  • The tip wore out and bent 
  • The only way I was able to use this was to apply it with the pen on a slant which created a much thicker, messier and less precise line.
Would I purchase this again? Not for $32 I'm not!
