My Thoughts:  I've been using these liners for years now, and they are definitely one of my favorites.  I love how they are a twist up, so I don't have to worry about keeping a pencil sharpener on hand.  The formula is super creamy, which means it glides right on without skipping.  The majority of colors are all fairly shimmery, which I like, but there are matte ones for those of you who don't like a shimmery liner.  My favorite colors are peacock, stingray, stargazer, and lionfish.  Maybe it's just me, but I think it's kind of cute how they are all sea creature names (minus peacock, but for this color there's really no other color you can call it!).  As evidenced by the above photo, I own all the standard colors, and I'm sure there's a few in there that are limited edition from holiday sets.  That's usually what I recommend to people, to buy the four color sets they come out with seasonally, or to buy one of their palettes that comes with a liner.  If you have blue eyes, I highly highly recommend the Lionfish color.  It's the perfect chocolatey brown shimmer that makes blue eyes look ah-ma-zing!  I use it on clients at weddings all the time, and without fail the rest of the room is suddenly ooohing and aaahing over how gorgeous their eyes look.

Final Verdict:  One of the best waterproof pencils you can buy!
