average

I wasn't overly impressed with this product I found it quite hard to apply mainly. The formula is thick and I found it sat really heavy. It stats true to word and dosent budge and is very intense. Overall if u can handle the weight it is a nice product.

Tips: Ake sure you clean brush after every use otherwise becomes hard and the extra liner clogs it up for next time.

-okay-

Not the worst, not the best. Slightly overpriced, but so is everything in NZ. I've found some other, better, cheaper alternatives.

Tips: It smudges easily, which is why I use it when I want a smokey eye. But not useful for sharp looks.

Great gel liner

Its a really great gel eye liner, It does dry quite quickly so you have to work fast. But it doesnt crease or transfer (which is what i look for in a liner) one negative is that they can dry up quickly. So i normally dont use the last 3rd as it doesnt glide as smoothly as when its new.

Tips: Apply with own liner brush. as the one that comes with is i find isnt very good

Does not budge!

I love this product. Ever since I finally mastered how to do a cat eye I've been using this when I want a bit more drama to my eyes. I do set it with a little bit of black eyeshadow just to be sure (but I do this with all liquid liners) and it lasts all day!

Tips: Try setting it with a bit of black eyeshadow. Its an extra step but it does help!

Meh.... Its ok

I liked this before I saw the light. My problem with it is that it doesnt wear as well as I wanted. I found it smudged to easily and by the end of the day was faded. I have since moved on to my current gel eye liner which I swear by.

Tips: Keep it in your hand bag to top up and ALWAYS put the lid on tightly or it will dry out.

Good When It's New

At first, I found this eyeliner great. It glided on smoothly on my lids and it was easy to create winged eyeliner application. I loved the brush, too. However, as days passed (take note, "days"), I started to notice that the make-up got cakey. It wasn't "gel"-ly at all. It would clump on the brush making it kind of thick and uneven. When it became like that, it was hard to apply it with precision. If it didn't become cakey/hard like that, I say I would give it 4/5.

Tips: I would clean the caked eyeliner from the brush with a tissue using a pressing motion between my thumb and index finger to preserve the shape of the brush. Storing the make-up at the right temperature would probably help (though it didn't, in my case). Check recommended disposal of make-up after opening (for instance, some eye makeup needs to be discarded after as early as 1 month) - I know it's disheartening but if that can save your skin from other issues then it's probably worth it.

LOVE this eyeliner!!

This eyeliner did exactly what it said it would - stayed put all day, went on easily, didn't irritate my eyes and was very pigmented. I am a barista and I sweat and touch my face a lot at work, and this stuff didn't budge at all. Great price for such a good product, too.

Tips: The brush will definitely get clumpy if you aren't careful about cleaning it during every use, so make sure to do that!

Maybelline Gel liner

I wasn't completely convinced with this product. It goes on easy enough, but maybe just that my skin is a bit oilier, it didn't stay put like I though it would. It tended to smudge quite easily and I found that I had to go over it with a black eyeshadow to stop it from smudging. Does give quite a good sharp flick though.

Gorgeous eyeliner

I love this eyeliner. My sister owns this eyeliner and I absolutely always borrow hers whenever I go anywhere and want to look my best. I do happen to own my own liquid eyeliner but the gel sits so much nicer and looks more elegant. This is my all time favourite and I can't wait to get myself some once I finally get my hands on some money! ;)

Super Easy

I love liquid eyeliners and liked the blurb on this enough to buy and try. So easy to use and the brush is good. A little bit goes a long way. I have used it for so many soft to dramatic looks. Can slowly build up colour and enough time before it dries to correct mistakes. Most of these eyeliners usually take forever to dry which leads to smudging while blinking while waiting to dry...not this one.

Tips: Apply before eyeshadow for a subtle look or after for a more intense look. While still wet apply over with a glittery powdered eyecolour on a cotton bud to get a new look
