Define Your Eyes




I have wanted to try Gel Eyeliner for so long and had been saving up to buy Bobbi Brown’s award winning Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner; until I saw that Maybelline had also created their own version of this renowned product.

At first, I was extremely sceptical about the Maybelline eyeliner, thinking that it could not possibly live up to the more expensive, legendary Bobbi Brown product. This was until I tried it for myself...

The first thing that attracted me to Maybelline’s Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner 24h was the fact that it came with its own brush; whereas you have to buy the Bobbi Brown brush separately.

The second reason that made me want to buy this product was the price. This Eyeliner and Brush combo costs a minuscule £7.99, compared to a hefty £16.50 for the Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner and £21.00 for the brush.

These were the fundamental reasons for my decision, so when I tried the product at home, I was even more delighted with the decision I had made.

Having never used Gel Eyeliner before, I was a little bit unsure about how the product was going to work. I was comfortable using kohl, liquid or powdered eyeliner to create definition, so really had no idea how a gel would differ.

After trying it out for myself, I can hand on heart say; it’s the easiest product I have ever come across. It simply glides along your eyelid, creating a wonderful, precise, defining black line.

This amazing eyeliner is also smudge and crease free, can be used on sensitive eyes (including contact lens wearers) and will last up to 24 hours.

You only need to use a very little amount at a time, so this product is fantastic value for money and bound to last you for ages!

The brush is also very easy to clean, as all you need to do is use a dry tissue to wipe off any remaining traces.

I truly recommend this product for an easy, cheap and fuss free way to get stunning, striking eyes.
