Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Eyeliner Review

I got mine around Christmas last year when I was a gel eyeliner novice. By the time I had mastered liquid liner and decided to return back to my gel liner...it had dried up... Maybe it would have been a good product when it was brand new, we will never know. But 5 or 6 months is a little fast for my liking.

I dont really like gel liners from using this product, it can easily be smudged! (when you want it to stay in place) then the likes of a liquid eyeliner! The brush that comes with this is below average as well, its too big to be able to get a thin liner, mine has dried up so much i cant use it anymore! :(

I had seen heaps of Youtubers using this, so I gave it a go.

I seriously shouldn't have brought into the hype.

Packaging is nice, it's like most other gel liners, no off putting scent or anything.

Dependant on how you're using it can depend on the results.

For an all over eyelid base for other eye shadows it's good, but for tight lining or just lash lining. I didn't think it was all that great. I found it very tacky and hard to work with.

Overall I'm not a fan and wouldn't get it again.

But I think that's just because Gel is not for me.

Personally, not for me. I don't have a very steady hand at the best of times and it got a little messy - it's just me though as was referred by a friend to use this (who always has perfect winged liner!) My issue was my hooded lids, so maybe better suited to people without horrible eyelids like mine :(

When you think of a gel eyeliner , you think long lasting which it is. What it also is , is very dry and clumpy. It is not worth the hassle of getting it to work. For that price I am not impressed.

I found this product dry and clumpy. It did not glide on and i had to literally dig the little brush into it to even get a line on my eye. Not very pigmented.

So I got the grey colour as I thought it was something different but it is really faded and I don't like it at all!! Although it was super easy to apply and the brush it came was is really decent. One thing I noticed is that afer a couple of hours the colour would always go up onto my eye lid. It didn't sting my eyes or anything. But having that smudge does not look the best. I think it is because my eyelids are quite oily and I wasn't using any primer. I really don't know what the fuss is about. Maybe gel liners aren't for me

I bought this a while ago and was very excited to use it. Sadly I was unimpressed; the formula easily became clumpy on the brush, even when wiping on the sides. It was okay to apply but I found that it was definitely not smudge proof and did not last the day. I was really looking forward to using this product and after giving it quite a few chances it now just sits in a drawer unused. Sorry but I personally do not recommend.

After reading what everyone else wrote I think I got a bung one... My gel eyeliner dried out superfast, to the point where it wouldn't apply evenly... and in the end, I binned it!!!!
