Wanted to love but failed quality control! :(

I REALLY wanted to like this product to try out these pencils before purchasing full sized. Unfortunately one was made incorrectly at the factory and is missized (brown see photo) and the black the pigment fell out immediately after one use. The nude pencil was the only that worked correctly. Returning and hoping that maybe a second is made better? May just wait to purchase full sized later…

Can we have the old formula back please?

I waited for this release. I would monitor Reddit threads to track When they would re release this and bought it as soon as it hit Sephora. Everything was a disappointment and I’m so sad about this. Lipsticks - dry. The eyeliner left my eye teary and itchy. So so disappointed.

Smudges and very difficult to sharpen.

I have watery, oily, allergy ridden eyes. The Mark Jacobs Highliner Gel Eyeliner was the only eyeliner I have ever used that didn't smudge and wind up all underneath my eyes, even when I used it on my lash line. So when I saw that he was back, I have never hit submit so quickly on an order! Sadly though, this new formula is quite the disappointment. It's far too soft to allow for any sort of control and not only does it end up all underneath my eyes, it's incredibly difficult to sharpen. The...

Not worth the money!

This is the worst eyeliner I have ever bought. The very first time I used it, the tip broke off because the formula is too creamy and not firm at all. I sharpened it, and it broke again. I sharpened it a third time, and the exact same thing happened. It’s absolutely not worth it, and to make matters worse, it’s not even long-lasting.

Don’t bother

At first I was so excited because the old Marc Jacobs eyeliner was my absolute favorite! I have been trying to find a dupe since it was discontinued and when I saw this in the store I was over the moon! While the liner itself is ok, it does transfer but only when it’s immediately been put on, otherwise it’s fine all day. BUT, when I had to sharpen it for the 1st time, well let’s just say it’s absolute garbage. It just doesn’t sharpen at all. So it’s a return and my search for a dupe to the...

Duped by false advertising-should be refunded

So frustrated. Did not realize that the pencil could not actually be sharpened! This is fraud due to false advertising and they should be ashamed of themselves. Money should be refunded!! I am so disappointed and Sephora should support its customers!

disappointing

I was really excited when I bought these eyeliners because I expected them to be high-quality, especially since they’re from Marc Jacobs, but unfortunately they were nowhere near what I expected. I bought two shades, burgundy and brown, and honestly I regret buying both. The formula wasn’t smooth, the color didn’t blend well, and I was especially disappointed with the burgundy shade because it didn’t really look burgundy on me. On top of that, both eyeliners only lasted me about a month...

Product contains Carmine

This product does not list carmine as an ingredient online despite it being on the box. I had to return it. This is a safety issue for those of us with allergies!!!!

Very disappointed. Bought two of these because I was so excited it was back. This is not the same formula as it was before. This runs and gathers in the corners. The old formula outlasted my 12 hour shifts and did not run.

Pretty colour but disappointing performance

It was a gorgeous lilac colour. However, the tip literally broke off the first time I applied it.

JadeStone43 Verified Nov 03, 2026

Same as some others mentioned, when I opened these the product wasn’t even there! The actual liner was sunken in the pencil and there’s no way to twist it up. Very sad and going to return
