Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner

*Introduction* In the past I have used Mac Fluidline Gel Liner which I absolutely love and recently decided that I wanted a gel liner in purple as this colour is very popular this season. However, instead of sticking with Mac, I decided to try the Bobbi Brown version as I had heard good things about their equivalent. *About the Product* Bobbi Brown Long Wear Gel Eyeliner claims to be an innovative eyeliner that offers the precision of a liquid liner but the ease of a gel-based formula. Bobbi Brown states that it is a long-wearing, water-resistant colour that can be used in order to create subtle to dramatic looks. ...  Read the complete review

Now, for the past 5 or so years, I have been wearing eyeliner daily. I have tried pencils, pens and brush-in pots. I found that I preferred the pen nibs but they dried out too quickly, pencils were great but needed constant sharpening and woe betide a cold pencil with sharp nib- ouch! Brush in pot applicators are great but can be messy to apply if you don't have something to lean on and a third arm to hold up a mirror! The type of look I go for- the sort of Lily Allen feline brush stroke effect, which needs an effortless line or you end up with a large brick of a chunk and look more like Amy Winehouse! So, I thought I had seen them all: Bonjours, No7, ...  Read the complete review

So around a month ago now, me and my best friend had an amazing makeover courtesy of the lovely Bobbi Brown, and I had all my foundation, blusher, and bronzer on, and then it was time for my eyes. I really hate my eyes, my right eye was damaged when I was 11, and I'm now blind in it, and I'm extremely self-conscious about it, so I tend not to wear eyeliner, as it draws to much attention to my eyes. But the nice woman doing my makeover, insisted on doing my eyes (Oh, how well she did them in the end..) so she used Bobbi Brown's Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner, and I ended up buying it. One of the best purchases of June. The woman who did my makeover, obviously knew how ...  Read the complete review

Bobbi Brown eye gel When I used eye liner I started of using eye pencils mainly because they were affordable & more choice. The disadvantage was when the crayon wore down the pencil had to be sharpened. This was messy because the sharpener would sharpen the wooden pencil & the crayon would get stuck in the sharpener, then I would be sticking my fingernails in the sides of the pencil sharpener to get the crayon out to start all over again. When I eventually did get the crayon to a point where I was able to use this to line my eyes, it was only then I would feel a sharp piece of wood scratching my eye. I would eventually end up throwing ...  Read the complete review

Bobbi Brown long-wear gel eyeliner does exactly what the title says. The eyeliner does not budge until you want it to. I purchased the eyeliner in 'violet ink', which is a deep purple and it very good at bringing out green eyes. The great thing about this eyeliner is that you have 2 eyeliners in one. You can smudge it like a pencil for a more natural look, or you can apply it like a liquid eyeliner to achieve that perfect definition without the necessary dexterity required for the application of liquid eyeliners. A very important tip - make sure you have the right brush to apply it as it will make all the difference. If your brush is too ...  Read the complete review
