Worked great for me!
This cry stick worked great for me to get the tears rolling. You still have to act but it will give you an excellent start. It dies burn a little but not bad at all. I swiped it several times around an inch below my eye and then rubbed that area a bit to activate. Not only did it get the tears going but I got lots of members of the audience crying too. If you are expecting tears to magically roll down your face with no effort on your part, this probably won't work but combine it with emotion and it provides a great start to crying on stage!

great
Works very well. I think it's top seller because every actress I'm friends with has the same one.

Useful
Works okay . .. not as effective as I hoped. One can feel the effect right away, but it takes more time to actually tear.

It makes me cry
this has lasted me a long time, I use it pretty sparingly though. I feel like other people can smell it on me when i use it so it isn't particularly useful when you're trying to gaslight someone- especially when they know you have it. but for things like video podcasts or movies, other channels of communication where scent is not a factor, this would work great. sometimes i keep it open in my pocket so i can just dip my finger tips in and rub them under my eyes slyly and it works within a few minutes.

Am I broken?
I really wanted this to work but I feel like it doesn’t work on me! I also don’t cry when cutting onions so maybe my crying switch is broken. 😂 It does slightly burn and smells strong which almost produces tears but it just doesn’t get me to that point. I’m sure it would work on others who cry when cutting onions, etc

Works Great!
I always do my research on all products that I buy, and decided to go with this out of all others I looked at. The packaging is great and sleek. Very easy to use and put away. It's important to note that you should be careful when you actually use this. It WILL burn if you place the product directly into or right under your eyelid (I'm talking like not even half a cm under). I tried multiple locations to scope out the strength and to find the sweet spot for myself. I found that if you use it right at the start of where the "bags" of your eyes may be, that is a good spot so that it will work, but not burn to the point where you cannot open your eyes. I used the product straight onto my skin, but I have heard that using a Q-Tip is another good way to apply the product. This may not bring out full on stream of tears running down your face, but you will get watery eyed. If you are able to get close to crying on cue, this may be the product to help push you right over the edge to have the full crying effect.

Absolute game-changer
This is a GAME-CHANGER. For the life of me, I can't cry when I perform. But using this before my scene allowed me to shed real tears. It's not strong enough that you can't hold them or that your eyes get red (so if you blink you don't look like you're crying), but it's enough to tear up easily when you need to. However, as mentioned in the comments, a friend of mine who wears contact lenses tried it, and it didn't work for him.

Worked immediately
It is a menthol lipstik, that you use right under eyelashes. If any further- it doesn’t work. I tried it right away under one eye. It worked in a few seconds. Of you buy it for acting, I’d recommend to practice to hold your tears a bit. Also I developed some “red eyes” in a minute. So be careful, don’t use too much. Love it. Thanks
