Maybelline Tattoo Gel Liner Pencil

I'll preface this review by stating that I much prefer liquid eyeliner to pencils. I generally find that pencils don't create sharp edges, are easily smudged, and are harder to apply than a liquid.

This gel pencil liner was surprisingly smooth to apply, and I was able to create some nicely sharp lines with it. It was very easy to blend it into my lashline too, as the heat of my eyelids allowed the pencil to really get into the skin between my lashes. I used it under my eyes too and found that it's easy to smudge/fade out with a finger while it's still warm from my skin, so it can definitely be worked with before it really solidifies onto your skin. I did inadvertently rub my eyes a couple of times over the course of the trial period, and it didn't smudge much at all.

I also tried it on my waterline/tightline, and was very surprised that it stayed relatively intact for most of the day - it was only about 30-40% faded/rubbed off by the end of the day.

I have quite hooded eyelids, so later in the day I definitely noticed some lines on my eyelids from this liner - but this happens with all eyeliner for me, and was far less than I'd usually get with a regular pencil liner.

One thing that I wish it came with is a sharpener, as it is sharpenable.

Overall, I really like this gel pencil and will likely reach for it again soon!!

I managed to get this at a great price and I must admit its been pretty good. I do find it has more staying power than my last maybelline liner so I do think it holds quite true to its name. This is handy as I am prone to rubbing my eyes and also get quite watery eyes which usually rinses my liners away easily but this managed to stick with me. It is a bit harder to remove and I do find I get a bit of buildup the following morning where it has been slowly watered down with my eye juices, but in terms of longevity and wear it lasts.

It looks good not patchy and applies evenly which is handy. some I find need a good going over a few times but this is quite pigmented and applies evenly and dark so no eye trauma.

Highly rate as one to use.

I typically use a liquid eyeliner on my eyelids and a pencil on my lower, i am pleased to find a eyeliner that is perfect on both! The Gel pencil is very easy to use and slides over both eyelids perfectly, it did not smudge or come off and i was very happy with the results !

I liked the smoothness of application of this Maybelline gel liner pencil. It delivered a smooth line that lasted over a few days (thanks to lockdown I didn't wash it off just to see how long it would last.) It didn't smudge either. You are able to control how thick you put it on for all occassions.

It glides on the lash line like a dream. the colour pay off is incredible! I have a few eyeliners but none as creamy and pigmented as this. The last one I used from a trusted brand had barely any pigment and I would have to drag the pencil back and fourth multiple times just to get a hint of colour. This one only took one application and I was good to go. I did however run it back over my lash line a second time just to build up an ultra black look!

It wore beautifully well however towards the end of the day the eyeliner had smudged and transferred to my lower lash line. The quality of this liner is incredible though so I think I will continue to repurchase.

I have been using Maybelline Tattoo Gel Liner Pencil for more than a week now, and I am very impressed on how long lasting and waterproof of Maybelline Tattoo Gel Liner Pencil is. I have tried many waterproof eyeliners, but so far this one is the best one. It spread easily when you apply and last a whole day long. Perfect for busy people.

I’m so stoked I found a new favourite! This liner is fantastic, although it doesn’t give you the precision of a gel liner it is more amazing as it doesn’t smudge and gives you more of a kohol look, it didn’t move and it lasted all day and even the next morninh! I applied to the top lid and waterline, my eyelids are oily and it didn’t smudge at all. I even did an onion cutting test and it lasted through the tears. I’d recommend this to everyone and even going to purchase for my mother who also has oily eyelids.

I’m not a big eyeliner wearer unless it’s for going out but trying this was nice. It has a lovely smooth tip which guides on easily. Easy to apply without smudging. Colour was dark and even. I also found it was easy to removed with cleanser without any effort.
