A liquid eyeliner designed for long wear, bold pigment, and eye‑comfort, the Eco Lasting Eyeliner comes in a 4 g tube. It’s part of Innisfree’s makeup line, combining smudge‑resistance and ease of application with gentler ingredients compared to very harsh liners.
Pigmentation & Color: Produces a deep, intense black in just one stroke. The color payoff is strong, giving sharp, vivid lines without needing multiple coats.
Brush / Tip: Features a sponge tip (rather than a very stiff brush) that offers decent control. Not too firm, so it can glide, but with enough structure to help with precision.
Drying / Hold: Dries relatively quickly after application. Once set, holds up well for many hours (often reported around 6‑7 hours of wear) without smudging, even on oily lids. But some users mention after longer hours, mild smudging or slight fade.
Comfort / Irritation: Contains Camellia sinensis (green tea) leaf extract, which helps soothe the eye area and reduce irritation. Many users report it doesn’t sting or irritate sensitive eyes.
Here are the main ingredients with their roles:
Ingredient | Role / Benefit |
---|---|
Water (Aqua) | Base solvent, helps dissolve other active/inactive ingredients. |
Acrylates Copolymer | Film-former; helps the liner adhere to skin, gives smudge- and water-resistance. |
Glycerin, Butylene Glycol | Humectants; help keep the formula from drying out skin, add some moisture so it doesn’t feel overly dry. |
Isopropyl Alcohol / Alcohol | Helps with quick drying of the liner, gives it fluidity during application. However can be drying for very sensitive skin. |
Ethylhexylglycerin, Ethylhexanediol | Preservatives/emollient modifiers; help with texture, stabilize formulation and preserve freshness. |
Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract | Green tea extract; antioxidant + soothing effects; helps reduce irritation around the delicate eye area. |
Panthenol | Also known as provitamin B5, helps moisturize, soothe, support skin barrier. Good in eye‑products to avoid dryness. |
Pigments / Colorants (e.g. Iron Oxides CI 77499, Black 2 (CI 77266), possibly Mica) | Provide the black color, opacity, depth. |
Pros:
Very pigmented; one swipe gives strong color.
Good staying power; holds up well in humid conditions / on oily eyelids for several hours.
Comfortable due to soothing components like green tea; many users don’t experience irritation.
Relatively water resistant / smudge resistant once fully dried.
Things to Consider / Limitations:
Alcohol content may irritate extremely sensitive eyes or skin.
The sponge tip can be less precise than a fine felt‑tip or brush tip for very sharp or graphic liner looks. Some users mention difficulty achieving ultra thin lines.
Removing it might require a good makeup remover (oil or micellar + cleansing) since it holds well.
After long wear, some mild smudging or fading towards the end of the day may occur, especially in oily eyelid areas.
Shake briefly before use to ensure pigment is well‑mixed.
Apply in thin layers: one steady swipe rather than pressing too hard or going over many times—helps avoid smudging or clumping.
Let the line dry fully before blinking heavily or applying other eye makeup on top.
For oily lids, consider using an eye primer / shadows set to mattify first; then apply this liner to reduce chances of smudge.
To remove, using a gentle oil‑based makeup remover or double cleansing helps so that you don’t tug at sensitive lashes/eyelid skin.
