Eyeko Skinny Eyeliner

Glossybox January Review Week - Day One
Helllooo Lovelies!
This little beauty is my favourite item from January's Glossybox. I had it seen in several previews, yet the colour I had seen was generally was powder pink. So it was a nice surprise to see that the colour I had been sent was plum. 
I haven't got a purple eye liner in my collection yet, so this one was welcomed with open arms, although I would have been just as happy with the pink shade. That would have made the ideal waterline colour to make your eyes look brighter.
The design of the pencil itself is the best design for an eye liner I have ever seen. You can sharpen it down to the smallest nib and the long silver end will still be present to help control application. 
The pencil looks like it will be a lovely strong purple colour although when swatched it's not as pigmented as I had imaged it would be and when used on your eyes, it does give very little colour pay off.  This being said I think this shade will make an ideal everyday eye liner because it's not as harsh as a black.
I really don't think I'd pay the £9.50 price tag for another one of these, unless that is I fell in love with a certain colour, but I certainly wouldn't be devastated if Glossybox featured more from Eyeko.
