Review: Maybelline Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner

I have never been a fan of eyeliner pens. Yes they are easy to use - it is just like drawing with a crayon back in primary school - but seriously, they dry out really quickly, they are never as dark and glossy as gel or "pot" liquid counterparts, and they never last as long. Which are all the same problems that I have found with this eyeliner. Although I know a shiteload of people love them, so this is just how it works for me.

It is very easy to use. Draw it on, easy peasy, and you are left with a lovely thin, neat line. I am a fan of thin eyeliner which you can draw over to be thicker if needed, so this is a massive plus. Sadly, that is where this eyeliner and I end our friendship. The black is no where near as opaque as I like with my eyeliner, nor is it as glossy. I also found that while this eyeliner was as smudge proof as can be on the dry skin on my hands, it began to smudge after about 4 hours on the oily skin on my eyelids. Not ideal during a working day.

I believe that this would work better for those just getting used to applying liquid eyeliner (before graduating to a gel eyeliner, or a "pot" eyeliner), and for those who have dryer skin on their eyelids. If you fit into either of those catergories, maybe give it a go. Sadly, this eyeliner will not replace my beloved Rimmel Professional Glam Eyes Liquid Eyeliner, but if I am going for a softer look witha  less dramatic line, this might be the one that I turn to.

This eyeliner was won as a prize. I am in no way obligated to review this product.
