I’ve tried many liquid eyeliners over the years, and this one immediately impressed me with its precision, smooth application, and long-lasting formula. The fine felt-tip pen makes it easy to create clean lines, whether I want a subtle everyday look or a bold, dramatic wing. The no-skip formula is a game-changer. It glides on evenly without dragging or smudging, which is often a problem with other liquid liners. The satin finish provides a polished, professional look without being overly shiny or matte. Plus, the pitch-black color is rich and intense, delivering true pigment in just one swipe. Another standout feature is the waterproof formula. It stays put through workouts, long days, and even light rain without smudging or fading. Yet, it removes easily with my regular makeup remover, so I don’t have to tug at my delicate eye area. Durability, precision, and ease-of-use all come together perfectly in this liner. For anyone who wants reliable, high-quality eyeliner that makes application effortless, this is an excellent choice. I’ll definitely be keeping it in my everyday makeup routine as it’s precise, bold, and never disappoints. Great texture and value for money! Read more
Great liquid liner! There are certain cosmetic products I will pay more for but liquid eyeliner isn’t one of them. I knew I could find what I needed in a drugstore brand for under $15. After trying out several this one checks all the boxes. Easy to apply (length/texture of pen gives great grip and applicator is firm but not too stiff). The formula is not too runny/wet and doesn’t bleed, you can fix mistakes fairly easily, it lasts all day and the shade of brown is perfect- not too warm toned and truly “dark brown.” I will try out the black next!

This is like a holy grail in affordable liquid eye liner. It is super easy to use and apply. The black color is opaque and perfect. It does not budge or flake or move during the day (I usually have it on for at least 12 hours) and it is easy to remove at the end of the day. I love it! Read more
Good eyeliner, but I notice it still smudges when I apply it over makeup and wipes out relatively easily compared to my other drugstore eyeliner. The tip makes application easy though Read more
Repeat buyer here. This is my absolute favorite eye liner!! It has a great little brush on the end that glides so smooth. I can wear it thick or thin. It lasts a long time and doesn’t smear throughout the day. I have super sensitive skin and have had no issues with rash or anything. Read more
I've been testing out various pen liners so I can change up brands. I've used NYX frequently and wanted to switch it up since my pen finally died. I will admit I'm a makeup snob especially when it comes to eye makeup. I however hate paying the eye cost that's associated with some of the brand names when some off brand products or "drug store" type products work just as well. This is my first time buying Maybelline's eyeliner and I doubt I'll buy it again. What I do like is the fine tip point and the black color. It went on easily and the tip is great. My complaint has to do with if you line your top lid. I've attempted lining with both primer and without and the results were the same regardless. The top lid continues to smear or fade away faster then the bottom and wings. The bottom I didn't notice that so much but I also go over my eyeliner a lot of times with shadow under my eye. This product smears easier than other products. I use a setting spray and even then I rubbed near my eye and had black streaking. Normally my setting spray prevents that or other brands stay on longer. I mean it's ok in a pinch and if you line your eyes with shadow over the liner on the lids but for me, this is a pass for going out or needing something long-lasting. I've tried out a cheaper brand non-brand name that worked better which surprised me after seeing the great reviews on this product. I'll go back to NYX, Too faced and other brands mainly because I line my top lid and need something that works there as well. If sticking with this brand make sure you have a setting spray and eye primer or maybe just use for under your eyes. Read more
This is my favorite liquid eyeliner! The color is completely opaque like you want in a black liner, and not watery at all. Despite that, I don't find it to feel goopy or crusty on the eyelid, which is great. The tip is nice and sharp and makes applying it very easy, with exception to user error of course. But speaking of user error, if I inevitably find it's a day where I can't draw straight lines, or am just bad at matching angles on both sides, removing it to then fix is very easy. I just wipe it away with a q-tip dipped in micellar water and keep going. But if not removed with micellar water, I find that it stays put for hours! Read more
Very nice, precision line, no smears. Long wear. Will purchase again. Read more
