Yves Saint Laurent Dessin Du Regard waterproof eye pencil No.1 Noir Effronté — retractable, long-wearing black

Yves Saint Laurent Dessin Du Regard Waterproof Eye Pencil in No. 1 Noir Effronté is a water-resistant, precision eye pencil designed to define lash lines and the inner rim for a long-lasting, smudge-resistant black finish.

This retractable pencil delivers a smooth, highly pigmented line that holds through daily activities without frequent touch-ups. Crafted in France, the compact 0.04 oz stick fits neatly into a makeup bag and aims to enhance both outer eye contours and the waterline with controlled application. Its formulation balances crease-resistant wear and a creamy glide so you can build intensity from subtle definition to dramatic, bold looks.

How does this pencil perform on the waterline and lash line?

The Dessin Du Regard Waterproof Pencil is formulated to resist smudging and transfer when applied to the waterline and along lashes. It deposits rich pigment in a single pass while staying comfortable, allowing you to define the eye without frequent reapplication.

• Water-resistant formula suited for the inner rim and upper/lower lash lines
• Creamy texture for smooth application without tugging
• High pigment payoff in one stroke for crisp definition
• Designed to minimize transfer and flaking during wear

How easy is application and blending with this pencil?

The retractable design gives precise control for tight lining and winged accents; there’s no separate sharpener to carry. While the formula sets quickly for long wear, you can gently smudge immediately after application for a softer, smoked effect before it locks in.

• Slim tip for accurate placement and detailed looks
• Retractable mechanism avoids manual sharpening
• Works alone or as a base for powdered shadows
• Quickly smudgeable right after application for blended styles

Will this liner stay put throughout the day and in humid conditions?

Formulated to be water resistant, the liner is built to hold through ordinary humidity, light perspiration, and daily wear. It offers long-lasting adhesion to the lash line while resisting smears, though removal will require a proper eye makeup remover.

• Water-resistant properties for increased longevity
• Reduced smudging compared with non-waterproof pencils
• Stable under normal environmental conditions and light humidity
• Best removed with oil-based or dedicated eye makeup remover

What color payoff and finish can I expect from No. 1 Noir Effronté?

No. 1 Noir Effronté supplies a deep, true black pigment with a soft satin finish that reads intense without an overt shine. The shade is engineered for classic smoky looks, sharp graphic lines, or discreet tight-lining to enhance lash thickness.

• Deep black pigment for dramatic or subtle definition
• Satin finish that complements both matte and luminous eye makeup
• Buildable opacity from sheer lining to full-intensity strokes
• Suitable for both daywear and evening styles
