How well does this work for people with "oily" lids?

what I recommend if you do have oily lids is to put foundation on your lid and then put a base eye shadow (light color ) and then apply the eyeliner. that will help with oily eyes, this liner is great!!!

My lids are also very oily that a lot of brands just don't work on me. I would say for its long lasting power, its worth a 4 out of 5, it does smudge a little throughout the day. I've used the color blackest black and eggplant, blackest black has a much stronger staying power than the eggplant one. Due to my past experience over many smudging eyeliners, this is definitely worth the purchase.

I've only used it on my hands, it's excellent for that.....I would imagine this would also cause you to break out as it is fairly oily....

Yes, BUT, I wouldn't recommend it! I used it twice and then it wouldn't come off the lid! The lid stuck to it every time and I have to fight it to get it to come off. I don't even use it anymore. Twice and it didn't work. The one I got at Walmart works much better! I have arthritis so needed it, but should have listened to the other people that wrote about it. Sorry....

Put a dab of oil on your finger and rub it around the rim of the lid and you have your problem solved. Don´t put too much oil so that the lid will not come loose.

For me it lasted. I have little oil on my lashes so I really don't have any problems keeping stuff on. If you have had that problem with other products you probably will with this.

Well not for me, I have oily skin though. It actually controls my oily spots (fore-head) and gives me a fabulous matte finish that lasts all day. I don't know if it is suppose to do this and I have never seen this claim on the packaging. Most of the other brands I have used are greasy and leave my skin oiler, this product is thicker with a brown tint to it. It dries quickly when you put it on. Hope this helps.

Personally, I find it easy enough to open with just enough tightness so the lid doesn't just slip around. The lid was never an issue for me.

They work good, they are a little big at the top, but the lids still close good. I would recommend them over others. The clean up is much easier than without them.

Interestingly, I just started doing this a few weeks ago. I live in the Caribbean where the weather is VERY hot and I find that since I started using it as a moisturizer, my face is actually less oily. It kinda leaves a tight feeling for a few minutes and then the feeling wears off. I totally recommend giving it a try.

No, lid is a snug metal-to-metal. Oil doesn't come out the lid though, because there is about a 1 cm lip all around to keep that from happening (sort of an internal funnel/donut when you pull the lid off).

I have never had a problem - reuse lids constantly even plastic bottle tops. One of the best purchases I have made for arthritic hands.

Actually, that is exactly what I use. I picked up an old lid at a garage sale, and it seems to work well, not an exact fit, but close enough.

I regularly shake things in my jars with these lids and I would say they DON'T leak about 95% of the time. Which is to say that every now and then there is some leakage - I think one of my lids is just "bigger" or sits "looser" than the others.

The opening is very small-- that's to allow the contents (oil, vinegar, whatever) to be "drizzled" on food in a very fine stream instead of pouring out as from a bottle container. There is a little top that covers the opening but it does not fit on tightly so it is definitely not an air tight seal. Thus, if the bottle were to tip over, some of the contents would probably spill out, albeit slowly. As far as the oil being exposed to the air, I would say not much. The very small opening and the little lid seem to be sufficient to protect the oil. I have been using two of these cruets for oils for about a year, and have not have had oil become rancid. These are not overly large containers and the contents get used up fairly fast, so the oil does not sit in them for a long time. I find these little containers very efficient; they are ideal for drizzling a fine stream of oil on food, and they look nice enough to keep them on the countertop, or dining table. Plus, I have a third one which is used for coffee creamer. One caveat: the lid is very small so care must be taken when washing the container and lid; it would be very easy to lose that little thing down the drain or accidentally toss it out with the garbage.

Yes, easy on and off. Fairly thin.not the greatest on sturdiness. Not leak proof. Id give them a 3 out of 5. I do use them often and reuse. But occasionally the lids piss me off.

I have used it under and at the sides. I did not use on the lids. I had no problems with product and did seem to soften.

Unfortunately when I put lipgloss in it, it leaked all over my kit. I had to use it for loose eyeshadow instead. It works well for that, but they do not have individual lids, which can be inconvenient.
