This is a great eyeliner

I was excited to trial the new Maybelline Tattoo Gel Liner pencil as Maybelline is known for producing great quality, budget friendly cosmetics.

I received this eyeliner in the shade black. The pencil is very gentle and you don't need to apply pressure as it glides easily across the base of the eyelid without pulling and dragging the skin. I also used this eyeliner on my waterline, to see whether it lived up to its waterproof and smudge resistant claims. It wore really well and the rich colour looked the same at the end of the workday as it had after applying it early in the morning.

This Maybelline Tattoo Gel Liner pencil will now replace my more expensive brand, as it does live up to its claims and is a great product.

Tips: Use light pressure as the pencil easily glides across the skin as this way it will deposit colour evenly. Remove with a cotton pad soaked in waterproof eye-makeup remover.

Intense colour but always needs to be sharpened

I was very excited to get my hands on this, who doesn't need a waterproof intense black eyeliner in their lives?

As soon as I unpackaged it I realised it is a liner that needs to be sharpened with a pencil sharpener rather than a design that the product is able to be twisted up from the bottom. I find that these products go one of two ways - works great or once sharpened is never quite the same.

Luckily I do have a good sharpener on hand and found that this works great time and time again once sharpened. The only downfall was that it is such a creamy formula the point wore down quite quickly so precision was a bit harder. This meant lots more sharpening for certain looks.

Even though we are in lockdown it did allow me to be a bit more creative and try a few different looks to test this out. I found for an everyday or simple timeless look this performed amazing, it was quick to apply and lasted all day (whilst doing at home workouts, gardening and general housework etc). When doing more intense cat eyes, graphic liner looks, you did have to sharpen it alot more as mentioned previously, it did wear well but I did find that it smudged a little bit and the designs looked a bit messy by the evening.

When removing the product I found this easier than expected, I used a 'Face Halo' followed by my cleanser and it came off cleanly with no panda eyes. I was expecting a but more scrubbing or having to use a balm or oil to remove it.

Overall the product was pretty good, I would reach for it for an everyday look that I wanted to last all day then transition into evening without having to touch it up. Or adding more depth to a smokey eye look as the colour was fantastic!

Tips: Invest in a good sharpener!

Great, very black & user friendly

It’s so easy to use, glides so easily as it’s so smooth, yet it doesn’t smudge. I had to work really quick to smudge it out a bit with an eyeshadow as I like the look better on me, plus I have shaky hands, so the lines are never perfect. It lasted the whole day today, but to be fair I haven’t done much, so will definitely update once we’re back at work as I need my makeup to last since I never correct or reapply throughout the day. It looks so black and feels and looks very gel-like, this could be used for winged eyeliner, I could do a really thin line with it, I just wish my hands would be more steady to try!

Love the waterproof!!

The liner applied easily and was easy to use. I loved the waterproof feature of the liner and for someone who is always rubbing her eyes this is desirable feature. I’ve never used gel liner before so it took a few go’s for me to figure how to apply this neatly, but it was smooth and silky so applied very well my technique needs a bit of work though. I love how thin the liner can be applied as well as I prefer thinner winged lashes, this is quite hard to achieve with many eye liners. I haven’t had a chance to sharpen the pencil yet but because of the plastic outer of the pencil I thought maybe this wasn’t possible so I looked on the maybelline website and found out it can be sharpened like a regular liner which means it will definitely last longer than expected! I wouldn’t say this is the best eye liner ever it does take some getting use to, but it was still a good every day liner which can let you do thin liner as well and the waterproof feature definitely makes it more enticing!

Great pigment and long lasting eye liner

Really have been enjoying this eye liner. It has great pigment - you don't have to scratch your skin to apply. It glides on swiftly and stays put all day. Came off easily using a balm cleanser at the end of the day when I finally wanted to remove. Colour was perfect, the best midnight black and applied to both the top and bottom of the eye. Didn't smudge around my eyes throughout the day, which was perfect. Not sure how to sharpen the pencil given the casing is plastic and not wooden....kind of odd. Probably the only downside.

Tips: You need a good balm/oil cleanser to remove otherwise prepare to see the eyeliner the next morning around your eyes!

Nice,smooth, easy to use eye liner

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.

Great product, but not the answer for hooded eyes

I was really excited to have been selected for this trial team as I struggle to find an eyeliner that can perform on my heavily hooded, age-droopy and very oily eyelids.

At first try of this pencil I was impressed with the exceptional pigment and the effortless glide. The colour went on like a felt tip pen but it was oh so smooth with no drag on the skin at all, it just swipes on like butter. Because the colour is so intense, a little goes a long way so I kept a light hand to just colour my lower lashes. In this location the liner performed ok, however I did get some bleeding over the course of the day but not enough to look 'panda eyes'. It just gave me a more smokey eye look than a precise line.

I have also been wanting to find a pencil that I could do a small cat flick on my upper lash line to try and open my hooded eyes and thought this might be the answer to achieving that. I tried this on everything from bare skin to powdered before and after liner but unfortunately I got a transfer onto my upper lid with every attempt I made. That said, I have yet to find a liner that could stay put on my lash line when my upper lids are literally sitting on top of them all day.

For the colour payout, the texture and the price point I think this is a great buy.

Tips: Oil-free eye make up remover will require a bit of rubbing to get this off as its such great pigment, but oil/balm products removed it much more easily.

My new favourite liner ever!

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.

Long Lasting Waterproof Eyeliner

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.

Tips: Keep the tip sharp, then draw the eyeliner in a smooth stroke. It’s very easy to apply and will stay like that throughout the day.

My new fave

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.
