Avon Glimmersticks Eyeliner Review Summary

Makeup junkies like Avon Glimmersticks Eyeliner because it is easy to apply, self sharpening, and inexpensive. This soft pencil eye liner comes in a variety of shades and is great for daytime application. BayouBengal says, "Not only do I adore the easy application of this eyeliner and the built in sharpener, but the shade Saturn Grey is the perfect shade to match my grey eyes." Kgortoweil says, "I also love the way it is retractable like a lipstick, as opposed to a liner with which you have to use a sharpener." It's not waterproof though so, if you need a liner that won't run in rain or through tears, take a look at our other eye liner reviews. Whether you prefer liquid, gel, powder, or pencil eye liner, you'll find them reviewed by our beauty divas!

Glimmersticks from Avon has been a favorite eyeliner of mine for years.  I love this product because it is the perfect shade of grey to highlight my grey eyes, it's easy to use and it is affordable!  What more could you ask for?

I used this for years, Avon always had these on sale for a great price. I tend to get oily so the liner rubs off in the late afternoon.  I found an eye pencil at Sallys Beauty for $1.19 and it stays on all day. Sharpening can be a hassle, but staying put all day really makes up for it. Avon still has... read full review »

a makeup junkie, trying to get the "smoky eye"

JUN

After years of using Avon, I'm a big fan of their products.  They can be a bit hit or miss for me, but after years of trial and error, I've found the products that work well for me and I buy them often. One of those products is Glimmersticks Eyeliner. I've been using it for years and like the convenience and ease of application.

Glimmersticks are available in the following colors: Blackest Black, Cosmic Brown, Emerald, Majestic Plum, Saturn Grey, and Starry Blue Night. They come in a long skinny plastic tube that is retractable and you never need to sharpen them.  You just pull off the cap,...

WOW, Avon Glimmer sticks are absolutely amamzing.  I have used them for several years now.  I previously used a very expensive Department Store brand and it doesn't work nearly as well as the Avon GlimmerSticks does.  I normally use the brown or black, but I have several of the other colors just for a little change of pace. 

As I get older I am more concerned about buying products that go on easily (without tugging the sensitive area aroiund the eyes)  The Avon GlimmerSticks glide on without any tugging or skipping.  It always looks good. I have used Avon products for years and I trust...

This eyeliner goes on smoothly and delivers great consistent color.  It's price is priceless!  Most other eyeliners don't come close to the value for the money.  I love that you don't have to sharpen the tip as it is basically self-sharpening simply by the shape of the dispenser.  Easy to scroll it up or down as needed this liner is economical and very easy to use.

I love Avon's Glimmersticks for several reasons. 

I'm starting to notice wrinkles, and have also noticed that a lot of the eyeliners out there tug on the outer corners of your eyes when you're applying them.  Not Glimmersticks!  They glide right on with ease. 

I also love the fact that they don't require sharpening.  I can't tell you how many eyeliners I've ended up throwing away because they would break after I had them sharpened the way I wanted.  If you're worried these might cost more, think about what you're throwing away first.  I actually save money with Glimmersticks.

I also like...

I have been usuing the Glimmersticks for years and love the fact that it is so smooth and glides right on. no tugging of the skin which I usually have an issue with pencil liners. I think when they are not on sale they are $6 and usually see them for half off which I stock up at that time. There are some great colors too...usually I stick to black, but really like the purple and green at times. once in a while they through in some new ones like pink and white. Love the product and will continue to buy! I have never had one melt on me...a few times it has worn off but I think thats because of my... read full review »

I have worn Glimmersticks Eyeliners for at least 10 years now.  I absolutely love them- you can create both a natural look or a dramatic smoky look depending on your application technique.  They come in great colors (especially around the holidays) for fun looks or your standard brown or black for every day wear.  They're cheap so you won't die if you lose or break one.  They are nice and creamy which makes them a cinch to apply- however this creaminess translates into melty eyeliner when it gets very hot outside.

I love the Glimmerstick eyeliners!  they come in so many colors and are so easy to apply!  I also love the fact that they go on and stay on all day!  No raccoon eyes for me!  These have got to be the best eyeliners on the market.  They don't need to be sharpened, are easy to pack in my purse and do not melt! my personal favorite is the gray color, but I have to admit, I have all of the colors and switch daily depending on my mood!

For years I used another product, and thought my eyes looked great. As I have matured (I don't like the term "aged") the skin around my eyes has changed, including the skin on my eyelids. My old liner was getting harder and harder to apply. A friend suggested Glimmersticks....tried it and now I am hooked. So eary to apply a smooth clean line, don't have to worry about having "racoon" eyes!!

I've used Avon since I was a teenage and I still love their products!  I recently discovered (yesterday) that if you "touch" the tip of the eyeliner pencil to a damp wash cloth, it glides on better and darker.  This makes it show up better when applied over your eyeshadow.  I still haven't mastered the sharpening of the Glimmerstick though...

I have five daughters, of which four have a tendency to take items out of my makeup case. Hence, I tend to use expensive skin care and less expensive cosmetics.  I prefer the natural look (less makeup is more).  I LOVE the AVON Glimmersticks eyeliner and when the go on sale I buy them in bulk. Usually 10 at a time. 

 Basic black is the best, except for the fact that by the end of the day it can make you look like a racoon unless you set it properly with powder. 

 I only wish that it came in more colors. Avon has six basic colors that the Glimmersticks come in.  Blackest black, cosmic brown,...

Avon Glimmersticks eyeliner is without a doubt the best eyeliner I have ever used - and trust me I have used A LOT of eyeliner brands in the past.  The ease of application, the colors, and the longevity are what make this a five star product! The price is also very reasonable, on the Avon website, look for when this product is on sale and you can get it for a very low and very reasonable price of usually less than two dollars, which really makes this makeup a steal.

Pros:

-Great colors - there are so many colors to choose from.  I have them in black, blue, green, pink (which does not show up...

The Avon Glimmersticks Eyeline, in the Waterproof formula, is the best eyeliner I have ever used, period!  I have tried so many, Smashbox, Bobbi Brown, etc.; from department store brands to leading cosmetic companies to drug store brands.  But none compare to the Avon Glimersticks.  And it really is waterproof.  The only thing that gets it off is my eye makeup remover, or my Purity cleanser from Philosophy.  And it never tugs at your eyes.  I started using cream and gel based eyeliners to avoid the tugging, and to try to get a smoother finish, but I noticed that they all just dried up after...

I have to say . Avons Gliimersticks are smooth , easy to apply. wash off  etc..etc... But they come in a wide rande of colors from Darkest black to shades of greys .. greens ... blues  Golds , silvers  even white!. My step daughter also won't use any other kind.

They are very affordable and most of the time one doesnt have to pay fill price . it is usually Buy one get one deal!

In fact, I love most of the Avon products.Keep up the great deals ! I remember Avon Products since I was a little girl and they still have some of the products my mom use to buy!They still have Sweet Honesty Perfume....
