Maybelline Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner, Black

I've been trying to master the perfect 'flicks' for ages but I just hadn't found the right tools to do so. I think that this just might be my new secret weapon!The brush is great. It really helps to achieve a thin line and makes applying the eyeliner a lot easier than with other products I've tried.The brush is double-ended. The other end, which I probably won't use, is more of a sponge-type brush which I imagine would be useful if you want to smudge the liner to create a smokey-eyed effect.The eyeliner itself takes a few minutes to dry but once it has dried it really seems to stay put. I've had it on for 6 hours and the deep black colour hasn't faded at all. Also the eyeliner hasn't transfered or smudged which is amazing!As noted in other reviews, the eyeliner pot is very small, but you only need a tiny amount so it should still last for ages.I've tried many different eyeliners from both cheap and more expensive brands and this is by far the best. I can't fault it. What a find and such a good price too!

Beware of how long this stays in your makeup bag- a little goes a long way but it doesn't last as long as the amount in the pot if that makes any sense? Both the brush and the consistency of the product become more and more difficult to work with after about 6 months (at this point it is wise to replace both anyway for hygeine reasons) but other than that, I can not at all fault this product, my go to for three years now. The brush to start with is ultra fine and precise, the liner is jet black and ultra smooth/easy to work with. I use this for sharp feline flicks and cat eyes, or big black dramatic looks (set with black eyeshadow, it stays all day and night) it's great for festivals, one day at a festival I had to keep dousing my head under the drinking tap to stay cool- eyeliner stayed mostly completely untouched and intact. It really is rather good. You may want to use a larger brush for applying to a larger space on your eye. You know it needs replacing for sure when it starts becoming less black and harder to work with/not lasting as long. Buy it, it's the best I ever used and I've been doing 'bat eyes' since I was 12

Really good dark eyeliner, a lot of eyeliners tend to mix with concealer or your base eye look and makes it look grey however this is so much better than expected, the small precision brush is quite good too, the other side you can use if you would like to smudge the eyeliner.

Comes in a sturdy matte glass pot , brush that comes with useless but product itself really pigmented and smudge proof when set with setting sprayReally good quality for price!

I've had this a while and it's my go-to I use this all the time. The brush makes it easy to apply and still hasn't dried out on me like others have in the past. It's lasted ages so well worth the money. It's nice and thick just like me so you know you don't need much. Had no eye irritation and the texture is amazing. Smooth as anything brilliant eyeliner

I've been using this eyeliner for years, easy to apply, lasts me all day. I don't think this waterproof, but I've showered and gone swimming plenty of times without it budging. Long as you don't rub your eyes too much. It's a true black, I've used this eyeliner everyday for literal years. It's easy to take off yet stays on all day. I probably only buy a jar a year, so it lasts for ages, you don't need much product.

Pros: nice brush. Good for tight lining or a smudged look.Cons: If you want something sharper, it won’t last.I just wanted to darken the roots of my lashes so my strip lashes blend in. It does that.

This is one of the best eyeliners I have used in many years and one I always come back too! Was a good price as well
