Question 1

How long will a single stick last?

Accepted Answer

I just got this in and highly disappointed that only the tip of the product is all you get. I assumed it was a swivel bottom.. I was wrong.

That being said, I put it on my waterline as soon as I received it (about 930am) bc that’s why I bought it. And at midnight last night it was still there.

I do not wear makeup daily as as SAHM, but I loved the quality of the this liner/crayon. So for me it’ll last a bit. For daily wearers, not long at all.

Question 2

how do you get this to twist up?? does it come up at all?

Accepted Answer

This is the strangest design for an eye pencil.  It does not twist - you do have to sharpen it with a very large sharpener.  Being curious how much product was actually in there, i broke off the bottom and saw that about 3/4+ of the tube IS filled with product.  If the sharpening doesn't work, I'll just scoop it out with a mini spatula from the bottom.
But I do agree that this design is pretty bad.

Question 3

What is the difference between the colors of "milk" and "cottage cheese"?

Accepted Answer

Milk is very pigmented...it's an opaque bright stark white. It's great for highlighting the area under your brows. Cottage cheese is not as opaque and it's got a bit of shimmer...a little more sheer, it's a creamier, warmer pearly white, best for highlighting the inner corners of your eyes.

Question 4

Is the milk a warmer or cooler white?  Is it more cream or more blue-ish white tone?

Accepted Answer

What an excellent question! It looks to me to be cool to neutral. The name "Milk" is perfect for it, because it is the color of milk. It isn't blue at all, but it is cool. However, it works great of my warm toned, yellow based skin, so it is somewhat neutral. Something I should have mentioned before, it is not the kind of pencil that should be used if you want something white in your eye look. It's not that it isn't pigmented, it is, it just works much better as a base rather than something you'd wear on it's own. It does show up enough to be a highlight, but because I am very pale, the color gets a little lost on my skin. It will show up better on people with medium to dark skin tones. I hope this helps!
