Pros: Lead is soft enough for application. Blending tip works well with minimal pressure needed. Basic colors available.
Cons: No way to retract lead.

| AnnieSlif's Full Review: Cover Girl Perfect Point Plus Eye Pencil |
How many times have you gone to sharpen your eyeliner and have the end snap off in the sharpener? Well, color that good-bye with the CoverGirl Perfect Point Plus Eyeliner.
There are a simple variety of colors in this 'style' of eyeliner pencil. But they do have the standard colors that will work for just about any eye color or color preference. I use the Midnight Blue for more dramatic night time eye definition.
Use of this pencil is incredibly simple. Just twist a small amount of 'lead' out by moving the base. There you go, a nicely rounded spot each time you need one.
The pencil has just the right blend of softness and 'stiffness'. The point doesn't break easily and yet it is still soft enough to apply as lightly and easily as you want. There is an angled blending tip on the end of the pencil. This works best of any blending tip on other eyeliners that I have used. A light touch is all that is needed to soften the line.
The CoverGirl Perfect Point Plus Eyeliner lasts very well. I have had no need to do touch ups with the eyeliner once applied. One all day application which is a great bonus as touching up eyeliner can be tricky at times.
The eyeliner has removed very easily with any cleaning solution I have used. I have never had to scrub or pull my skin to get the area clean. This is a major factor with eye make up. Skin around the eyes is delicate and you don't want to have to pull and tug.
There has only been one thing that I didn't like about this style of eyeliner pencil. You can't retract the 'lead' once you twist it out. If you accidentally twist too much out, you are stuck with it. And twisting too much makes the lead less stable which leads to breakage.
