Oriflame Beauty Studio Artist Gel Liner Review, Swatches What the Company claims: Oriflame Beauty Studio Artist Gel Eyeliner gives the precision line of liquid eyeliner for professional and smudge-free results. The smooth texture of the gel eye liner delivers rich color and even coverage and ensures long-lasting luring eyes for up to 24 hours. It comes with a slanted brush applicator that gives smooth and flawless effects.
MRP: Rs.449/- for 3g It comes in a small glass pot and a small slanted brush alongwith.. Its rich and deep..and matte black..good pigmentation..can be easily layered..I quite like it for tighlining..gives precise definition..
Texture wise, it is quite soft but not that smooth..I like the fact that the small brush can be used for travel and no need to carry a separate brush..but for regular use,I wish it came with a longer brush too,as holding that small brush and lining is sometimes difficult.
It stays on for 8 hours plus on my upper lashline with minimal fading. But it sets quickly and layering over it does not go smooth.
Pros: 1. Rich black 2. Very creamy. 3. Glides on well..no tugging or pulling. 4. Small travel friendly brush. 5. Stays put quiet long. 6. Its often available at a discount..and the qty is more than other gel liners..like Maybelline and L’oreal..so quite economical. Cons: 1. I wish there was a longer brush too along. 2. Available only through reps. Overall, I would say its a nice rich black, matte gel liner..and buttery in texture..comes with a nice travel friendly brush too..if you love gel liners, you should definitely try this. Rating:

New 36 Hours Maybelline Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel Liner Review, Swatches What the Company claims: Smudge proof and water proof for 36 hours and comes with a unique tip brush Intense Color. 36 Hour Wear. Now gel reinvents eyeliner.
MRP: Rs. 450/- for 2.5 g Why You’ll Love It •Only our oil-free formula can hold highly concentrated pigments in a clear gel base. •So color is more intense and lines resist wear for hours. •Smudge-proof and Water-proof. •The most intense line for lasting drama.
Ingredients:
Expert Tip Use gel liner and begin at the inner eye. Extend along lash line, continuing up towards the brow. Check out more details HERE The all new improved version of Maybelline Gel Liner is out..with the old one being discontinued now.. I have used the old one too..it comes in a glass jar and the new one is in a plastic jar..the old one was priced at Rs.375/- for 2.8g. Read the previous one’s review HERE
The old one was more gel like..this one feels a little creamier..this one is anyday more dark and intense..It stays longer too..I have obviously not tried it for 36 hours..did anyone do ? :p But it stays for around 10 hours and then fades a little on my super oily lids..on the waterline, it stays for 4-5 hours. Does not smudge much or give raccoon eyes. It gives a glossy look at the start and then settles to a matte finish.
The brush that comes along is almost the same as previous one..just a bit denser..I wish it was two sided with a very fine brush on one end..coz this brush does not help with fine lines or just defining..it gives thick lines..and is perfect for winged liner. Here is the swatch..see how dark it is..
And here it is on me..
Pros: 1. Glides on super smooth without any tugging or pulling. 2. Super dark and intense..jet black. 2. It is long lasting and smudge proof as it claims..it stays on whole day without smudging or fading much even on oily lids. 4. Gives a nice matte finish. 5. It helps in getting that perfect winged liner look too. 6. Its perfect for tightlining the eyes. 7. It dries quickly and hence does not smear or spread. 8. Comes with a brush along. Cons: 1. I would have liked more colors. 2. The brush is a little dense for fine lines..a two sided brush would have been perfect. 3. Its not meant to be used on waterline..irritates the eye a little. Overall I would say I love how deep and dark it is..and once dried, it gives a nice matte finish and stays put come what may..my hand swatch did not go away even after multiple times rubbed hard. It stays for 10+ hours even on oily lids. And perfect for winged liners..Highly recommended.

Inglot Matte Collection AMC Eyeliner Gel 74 Review, Swatches
What the Company claims: High intensity pigments provide ideal coverage and rich colors after just one application. The Creamy and delicate long lasting formula dries in 60 seconds to a water, smudge and crease proof finish.
MRP: Rs.680/- for 5.5g
Ingredients:
It comes in a small flat plastic tub packaging with a black cap..has no brush along. Its a cream based eyeliner and not gel based..so its opaque, matte and super creamy..sets super fast and stays on for a good 6-7 hours without budging..it does flake off at times after that..
74 is a gorgeous eggplant plum shade..I love plums..so this shade is more of a weakness for me 😀 I fell for it, the moment I saw it..
Pros:
1. Gorgeous color. 2. Has a super creamy texture and glides well especially on oily lids. 3. 5.5g is a good qty. 4. Inglot is cruelty free. 5. Can be used as an all over base too. 6. Cheaper in price and more in qty than MAC Fluidlines which cost around Rs.1000/- for 3g and L’oreal Super Liner which cost Rs.825/- for 2.8g
Cons:
1. Dries super fast..you need Inglot Duraline to revive its creaminess. 2. It should come with its own brush.
Overall I do love the gorgeous shade..but I am not a fan of cream liners..somehow I find it difficult to work with cream liners..so gel liners for me..But if you are comfortable with cream liners, you should definitely get this shade !

This palette is No. 2 Amazon..these eye shadow and eye liner collection consists of 6 eye shadows of 1g each..about a size of our new 5 rupee coin and 2 gel or cream liners of 1.5g each. It has a small dual sided brush..one side is a angled liner for the cream liners and the other side is a small fluffy crease brush..well its actually very tiny..but the angled liner brush is quite nice ! And also a stretched mirror below the brush.
This is a perfect travel palette. You get everything from shadows to liners and the brush in one palette..a total package !
The shadows are decently pigmented..some are more..and some are a little less..but none are powdery or chalky..all have a metallic finish and are shimmery..but not glittery…if you are a fan of mattes..this is not for you..the staying power is a good 6-7 hours even without a base.
The gel liners are decently pigmented too..the black is a little sheer but the chocolate brown is nicely pigmented..these cream liners are water proof and stay around 6-7 hours on the lids.
Top Row has coppery rust, true gold and plum brown..
Bottom Row has a shimmery white, rust orange and bluish grey.
Cream liners..black (veering towards grey) and chocolate brown
Gold and Rust orange..both center shades are quite pigmented..I loved the plum brown the most..and the chocolate brown cream liner..Overall its a warm palette.
Pros:
1. Its a warm palette with well selected shades.
2. A perfect travel palette.
3. All the eye shadows are decently pigmented.
4. Gel liners are equally nice.
5. Comes with a brush where in the angled liner is pretty useful for this travel friendly palette.
6. A steal at £3.99
Cons:
1. Beauty UK do not have testers.
2. Availability here is an issue. You can buy it here
3. I wish the black was more darker and pigmented.
Overall I quite love this palette..it is super handy..and you get all the combined warm shades with gel liners and a brush in one palette..and at this price..definitely a steal ! Must have..

P.S: Product sent by brand for review but it has not affected my opinion.
Gel liners are much better to use for lining eyes than the pencil ones..which tend to fade away and better than liquid liners for newbies where precision and control is required. Abroad there are Bobbi brown gel liners which are the best..and which unfortunately we dont get in India..we have MAC Fluidlines and Clinique in high end which have gel and cream liners respectively..in many different colors which retail for Rs 1000/- and Rs 1100/- respectively. In drugstore brands there is Maybelline and Tips and Toes which are for Rs. 375/- and Rs. 210/- respectively. Coming to the Maybelline one…here it is…
What the Company claims: Creamy gel types allows to draw a smooth clean line without crease. Customized eye line brush allows lines to be drawn as desired from fine to thick. The creamy gel texture dries quickly after application. Long lasting water proof and smudge proof formula that resists sweat,tears and water.
Directions for use: 1. Dip Tip Of Brush Into Gel Formula And Wipe Off Excess On Rim Of Jar. 2. Glide Brush In Small Strokes Across Lash Line. 3. Continue To Build Line, Until Desired Intensity Is Achieved. **After Each Use, Wipe Brush Clean With Dry Tissue And Close Cap Tightly.

And after trying to smudge them..
The Brush
Pros: 1. The texture of this gel is awesome..glides on super smooth and nicely. 2. The brush that comes with is damn good…I have shaky hands..yet it helps in getting a smooth line…and this brush gives a thick to thin..any desired lines. 3. It is long lasting and smudge proof as it claims..it stays on whole day without smudging or fading. 4. It gives an even and matte look..better than liquid liners. 5. It helps in getting that perfect winged look too. 6. Its perfect for tightlining the eyes. 7. It dries quickly and hence does not smear or spread.
Cons: 1. It comes in a single color in India i,e Black..there are other colors like Brown and Eggplant available abroad. 2. The brush is separate and there is a chance of misplacing it..unlike Tips and Toes which have their brush attached on top. 3. Tips and Toes is more economical at Rs.210/- 4. Its not meant to be used on waterline..so do not use it there..though some people do..I tried it twice..but it kinda irritated my eyes and I felt itchy..though nothing harsh…But I would suggest avoid it as it contains lots of chemicals and is Made In China :p

Would I buy it again: Yes if I get it in some other colors…or else would try Tips and Toes if I run out on this..which wont happen soon.
Tip: Usually gel liners tend to dry out..especially the Bobbi Brown ones..though Maybelline doesnt any soon…what one can do is keep them upside down so that the air in the jar gravitates downwards and stays a bit away from the gel..and if your gel liner has already dried out..try adding a few drops of Inglot Duraline to it.
