very precise application and super matte. it also lasts a super long time, sometimes too long. the only flaw is it's hard to take off and requires a lot of makeup remover....However being honest, when i do buy a fresh one of these liners i have to draw strokes with the pen a few times as well as shake it on my wrist to get the ink flowing.
