I absolutely love the Avon glimmersticks - they have the pigmentation of a high-end eyeliner. I like the retractable packaging and the shade range.
After a while, the product does dry out a bit and you have to warm it up on the back of your hand before applying to the eye.
Even oil-based eye makeup removers struggle to clean up the very last of the glitter, which I guess is both a plus (for when you want the liner to last a long time) and a minus (for when you want to remove all your makeup to go to sleep).

I'm not sure if this is still available, but you can find out through an Avon representative.
I had mine in a Black colour. It was an intense colour so I didn't have to apply a lot. It also didn't really smudge so this is definitely a liner worth trying.
I've been using Avon glimmer sticks since - Well since i started using makeup.
It was one of my first purchases and i never looked back.
Goes on smoothly, Great in the pigmentation department and yup their retractable so you can just pop them in your handbag for touch ups anytime.They don't rub off too easily so can be used for day or night make-up looks.
They come in a range of shades and aren't going to break your bank either.
Their really my go to product! and from a brand that understands woman - AVON
I purchase Avon products on a monthly basis and have never had any issues with them , due to this unruly obsession i have amassed a huge collection of these eyeliners in a variety of colors .
The eyeliner glides on perfectly and lasts the entire day . I always have a back up of the black as it works great on my waterline for daily wear .
I am always receiving compliments for the various color eyeliners that I wear as the range of colors they come in are extremely beautiful .
They are retractable pencils which avoids the need to sharpen them and are really inexpensive.
Avon as some great specials on them every second or third month so keep a look out for them if any of you are interested in purchasing more colors for your collection .
I love this eyeliner from avon, as it is perfect for my eyes. These eyeliners you can wipe off very easily and I love the feeling of it. However there are some negative aspects to it, firstly it doesn't last very long(in a sense that its done within 4 weeks max, then you'll have to buy another one), secondly its not long lasting in the sense that it smudges very quickly, starts to fade very quickly as well then I'll have to re-apply it. But overall I love this product.
I love these because they stay put! Usually other products are all over the place, giving me "raccoon eyes". I use the black and grey ones all the time. Would definitely recommend!
I agree with Hayley that I also have a problem with eyeliner staying where it should. I received the Avon Blackest Black glimmerstick in 2013 from BB to test and did a review on that. I still enjoy the staying power of that glimmerstick and it is great for my sensitive eyes (I am also a contact lens wearer).
When Avon had a special in Dec 2013 on the Starry Night Blue and Majestic Plum for R19.95 each when one buys for R100 or more, I jumped at the chance! I agree with Desiree, that I love the vibrant colours. Somehow they do not seem to stay on as long as the Blackest Black, but they still stay on for quite some time and I just throw them in my handbag to top up later. They glide on smoothly and once again no eye irritation. So, thumbs up!
I have Glimmersticks in Starry Night Blue and Majestic Plum. These colours are vibrant, I really like them.
Upon purchase, the tip of the glimmerstick is more narrowed which I liked but this obviously changes with use. My eyes are sensitive and occasionally tear up, just dabbing at the inner corners caused the product to fade in that area.
If you don't tear that easily, you will like this product. I especially recommend these colours.
this product was okay. for precision, its good, it glides on smoothly and is a nice dark colour. however I did not like that it didn't smudge, as one sometimes needs like when doing the smokey eye. I prefer to use it as a base uder my liquid liner for more depth.
This is the fist time I used glimmer stick. Initially I thought there would be some glimmer in the product but realist it's actually an eyeliner. It has a super soft nib and glided on easily but I have to say I found it difficult to remove. I have to make up remover and baby oil to to get it off. Great long lasting but a nightmare to remove.
I agree with azraa. The eyeliner did tend to fade after two to three hours and the line was not as distinct. I had eyeshadow under so that was not such a big problem for me. I have found that most of the sticks do seen to fade away. Not only the avon one. If I want a defined line to last through the day I use the gel pot from Bobbi Brown with a eyeliner brush

thanks to bb for choosin me to review the Avon products, was absolutly ecstatic to be chosen simply cos i am a fan of Avon products ,blackest black was sent to me to review and initially i had bought the twilight , simply love both the colors , really makes such a difference to my eyes.
So I adore eyeliner. I use every colour I can find. On my lash line and in my lower lashes. The avon Glimmerstick is the easiest I have found to use, and you never need to sharpen it as it comes in a twist application! It hasn't irritated my sensitive eyes as I use in my actual eye on the inside lash line. I have smudged it and its not the best for smudging but for a nice solid line that is even and thin or thick its the best. Also it doesn't burn when I apply it so that's great not does it make my eye red or watery like some others I have used!
This was my go to eyeliner for a long time, coz they went on special for R19 and I bought a massive load of them, till they ran out and I saw the price and never went back. But they are amazingly soft and glide on very smoth, longlasting and VERY pigmented. Their black is a true black.
The Glimmerstick Diamonds product does not last as long as we have liked. I have also found that the glitter they have in the pencil tend to scratch a bit upon application. Overall the product is great value for money and does the trick.
If you are going for the dark look,then this is your product

Well I just bought this product a week ago at the Avon store in Gateway.I didnt really think the "dimaond look" will show as well as it does in the advert and too my surprise it does.
I simply love Avon's glimmersticks as not only are they well priced, they are convenient. No sharpening or blunt points to worry about, simply twist the bottom and you have a sharp, accurate point. I have one in every colour.
