Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Eyeliner Review

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've just started using this liner and I am in love with it. So easy to use, is nice and pigmented and very black. I use it mainly with my Sigma E65 brush (small angle brush) and it makes doing wings so easy. And it doesn't budge once dry, or flake or do any of that other horrible stuff some products do! I have oily lids (sounds gross) where if Something is going to smudge or crease it will! I gave it the ultimate test the other day, muggy hot weather at a carnival! I came home and my wing liner was perfect! Very impressed!

Pros: Long lastting Water proof Smudge proof Easy to apply

Cons: Sometimes look too sharp in black.

This is an awesome gel liner. It is FAR blacker than blacktrax by mac and far easier to use. It is a nice consistency and lasts for ages. I prefer this over the other gel liners I have tried including blacktrax and stilla smudgepot
