The Line & Shine pencils are available in three shades - Rockstar eyes (Black and silver); Popstar eyes - blue and turquise, and Superstar eyes (Plum and purple). The three pencils are double ended and chunky. One end is matte, while one is more shimmery.
I recieved two of the pencils - popstar and superstar;
As you can see, both are reasonably well pigmented for the £4 price tag...
The graffiti pen is a "felt tip" style liner, available in black, and is very well pigmented;
After swatching, I tested the "waterproof" properties of the liner, and it does really well - so well in fact it needs an oily remover to get it off... I used this on the waterline and it lasted really well.
I used the Superstar Line&Shine, and the graffiti liner (with a little help from a Sleek palette highlighter shade) to create a quick defined purple look;
To create this look I applied UDPP to both lids, then layered the matte plum shade over the lid, and blended out with a fluffy brush. I then added definition to the eye with the "shine" end of the pencil, and used the Graffiti liner to the waterline and upper lashline.
The look lasted reasonably well to - I think possibly due to the UDPP, I noticed some creasing occured about three hours after application, but this was easily fixed by a little finger patting/blending. The definition around the eyes lasted very well. The pencils are also pretty creamy in texture, but not as soft as say the Prestige total intensity liners. The graffiti liner stayed very well on the waterline.
Verdict - well pigmented, double ended pencils with reasonable staying power for the price, great if you are a fan of bright colous of just looking for a change from black. The graffiti liner is great for the waterline, and has good waterproof and stay put properties. More "experienced liners"might prefer a more flexible tip, as this is a pretty rigid nib.

These look nice. Do they come in any more neutral colors? Me = boring.
hi @Jewelled Thumb - as far as I know, they come in the colours described in the post, so they may not be neutral enough for you - if you like neautrals, I'd recommend taking a look at Barry M's chunky liner pencils, and also the Prestige Total Intensity liner pencils xxx
the turquoise pencil looks gorgeous! x
