Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Eyeliner Review

I love this product.

It is simple, even for someone like me. Easy to apply, makes your eyes pop when you have it on & lasts all day long.

My lids are quite oily and if I put any sort of product it tends to come off in the first half hour. This product lasted me from the morning to the end of the day

Very good product.

This Eye Studio eyeliner comes in a glass round base clear little jar and a sleek black plastic lid. And the best thing is it comes with an eyeliner brush. The bristles are soft and densely packed. I find the brush is very easy to control, I could go as thin and as thick as I want. I have achieved very sharp precise wing liners with this brush. I just have to make sure I wipe it after every use and wash it once in every 2 weeks.

In terms of texture – the product feels smooth, it glides on smoothly. The formula of this eyeliner is rich, creamy and smooth, it glides across the lids easily. It is very pigmented, I only need 2 layers to achieve a dark opaque liners. I find the liners set and dry down quickly, and still looks opaque after being dried. Once I get used to it, the application becomes easier and much faster too.

There is no scent in this gel eyeliner product and it has never irritated my eyes before. I've never had a problem with the gel drying out as I always close the lid very tightly.

This gel eyeliner is also smudge-proof and water-proof. Once it is on, it stays on really well, does not transfer or smudge. It lasts for up to 10 hours on my lids even though I have oily eyelids. I was really impressed by the longevity of the gel eyeliner. Overall, this is an excellent gel eyeliner. I would definitely repurchase this gel eyeliner and would recommend this to everyone. It is affordable, easy to use, and long lasting.

This eyeliner is so good and easy to apply. I love the brush but i usually can only apply a semi thick to thick line and if you have other makeup brushes that are thinner then its good and you can do thinner lines! The price is not that high and its really black and stays on all night. This is one of mmy go to liners as liquid ones dont work! I also love how its see through so when you are running out you can re purchase.

It's hard for me to find eyeliners (gel / cream / crayon) that work well for my hooded oily lids. I'm happy to say that I really love this product and it's almost as good if not just as good as my ultimate favourite Jane Iredale Jelly Jar Gel Liner.

I have the shade Blackest Black which I bought from Beauty Bliss for $20.00 - a bit steep some may say but if you think about high end ones like Jane Iredale you're looking at $40 so I'm not complaining about the price point. Admittedly I didn't have high expectations for this but was surprised to find that the gel goes on a lovely inky black and dries down to a semi matte black without losing the lovely rich colour.

It applies on smoothly and gives you enough time to correct mistakes before setting. I really love that the product moves wherever my brush directs it to move so I'm not left trying to drag and tug at it my already droopy eyes! The product is waterproof and smudge proof and I often find it difficult to remove if I'm not using (the best ever) my Neutrogena Oil Free Eye Makeup remover.

My only small con with this product is that there is still some transfer. With hooded lids the excess skin loves to hide all my artwork (i.e. often failed attempt at smokey or halo eyeshadow) and it tends to touch my gel liner. This product leaves a very faint mark just above my crease - which in comparison to other eyeliners I've used, is nothing. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for an affordable gel liner with fantastic colour payoff that doesn't dull or move once in place.

This is a really good gel liner, no doubt about it.

I have the black version, and it glides on easily and gives an opaque semi-matte finish. The brush that comes with it is actually pretty good as well: quite dense, and you can get a nice defined line with it. I don't really wear winged liner that often, but on the occasions when I do this liner works great.

I find this much, much easier to control and use than any liquid liner I've used (although I haven't tried that many liquid ones so I'm sure that there are some great ones out there!), and I really like the finish of it as compared to the often quite glossy finish of many liquid liners. That's really just a personal preference thing though. :)

The only thing that I dislike about this product is the fact that it fades a bit through the day, especially near the inner corners of my eyes. My eyes do tend to water a little bit, and unfortunately this just disappears when that happens. No smudging or flaking, though, just the fading.

So overall I do really like this (especially for the price) and I can see myself repurchasing if/when I run out or it dries up. :)

I am not savvy at doing my make up and putting on eyeliner is one of those things I am really bad at. Liquid eyeliners are just so hard to control and pencils are just too thick. Now, this gel eyeliner is great. The tint of black is just right. The brush that it came with makes application really easy and it can do wing tip if I want to. Love the matte finish. The only issue I found is that it is easy to get smudged especially at the end of the day and it can fade.

I bought this eyeliner after seeing various makeup gurus online talking about how good it is. Having mastered the liquid eyeliner but never having tried a gel I was interested to see how it would go.

It's super easy to use, I got the perfect cat eye first pop (very rare as you all know!) It glided on nicely with the little brush that's provided, and I've used it with other angled brushes etc and it works well with them too.

I find that it does smudge if I don't let it dry (I always, always blink too soon!) and that after a day of wearing it, it has smudged on my lids and transferred to above my crease in some cases. I'm sure this could be remedied with a good eye primer, and I really must invest in one of those.

Love this stuff I think it is totally great! I find gel liner is way easier to get off than liquid if you make a mistake! I'm so bad when it comes to doing eyeliner but this was nice and easy!! Could be a great product for somebody just getting into lining the top lash line.

I use this alot, the texture is very creamy, alot easier to apply than liquid liner which is what i love about it. The down fall is the color fades, another great thing is it does last you a long time, ive had my 2nd gel liner jar for a year and i have heaps left. The brush is pretty average. I need to set my gel liner with black eyeshadow to make it stay put or it creases onto my eyelids. But overall good/great product

I really love this stuff. Its so easy to apply better than full liquid eyeliner. Tip so fine its easy to correct and do details.
