Thin Lines Are Easy With Physician's Formula Eye Definer Felt-Tip Eye Marker

I'm a terrible klutz with eyeliner.  I'm too afraid to go outside of my normal look of just an even line above the upper lash line.  Well, a semi-even line in my case.  If I'm lucky.  I usually end up having to make the eyeliner thicker and thicker just to even it out and make it not look... bumpy.  My dream is to one day be able to do a winged liner that doesn't look like my hand slipped and I was too lazy to clean it off.  but at least I've managed to get my eyeliner to not be so thick, thanks to Physician's Formula Eye Definer Felt-Tip Eye Marker. (Side Note: WHY does Physician's Formula insist on have the longest product names ever?!)

I was skeptical of felt tip eyeliners just because it seemed like using a Crayola marker on your face.  And that seemed, well, weird.  But it works oh-so-well for me.  I'm able to get the thinnest lines I've ever achieved. The marker is only available in dark brown, warm black, and ultra black, but they're super pigmented, dry quickly and are water/sweat/pretty much anything proof (but comes off easily with makeup remover).

The thicker part of the marker is very stiff and does thick lines quite well.  The very tip has a tiny bit of give so it isn't poking hard into your eyelid when you apply.  It also helps to make super thin, even lines.

Here are lines of various thicknesses to show how versatile the marker really is.


This is an eye look I posted several days ago, but I just wanted to show you what the eye liner looked like on.  I was able to get a super thin line, which I haven't been able to achieve with any other liner.

One thing I really like about the Physician's Formula website is that they post the ingredients for every one of their products.  A lot of companies don't do that.  Here are the ingredients for the eyeliner:

WATER, ACRYLATES COPOLYMER, BUTYLENE GLYCOL, ALCOHOL, SODIUM POLYASPARTATE, ALOE BARBADENSIS LEAF EXTRACT, AMINOMETHYL PROPANOL, BEHENET-30, CHAMOMILLA RECUTITA (MATRICARIA) EXTRACT, HYDROLYZED CONCHIOLIN PROTEIN, LAURETH-21, PERILLA OCYMOIDES LEAF EXTRACT, ROSMARINUS OFFICIANALIS (ROSEMARY) LEAF EXTRACT, DISODIUM EDTA, PHENOXYETHANOL, METHYLPARABEN, PROPYLPARABEN, ETHYLPARABEN. MAY CONTAIN: IRON OXIDES, D&C BLACK #2, FERRIC FERROCYANIDE.

  • This retails for $6.99 at drugstores and where ever Physician's Formula is sold.

Thank you for reading and have a great day/night/whatever!

  2. The ELF version of this is awesome! Its only $1 too! It advertises to be waterproof but actually comes off really easily and I highly recommend it as a cheaper alternative to this one.

  3. I love felt tip eyeliners, but I usually prefer the type where you "dip" it into the eyeliner as I find that markers tend to dry up and stop working. Judging by the swatches on your arm, this looks like an awesome marker and it's an awesome price! Great review!
