I have Alopecia and most of the time have stubby non existent lashes if any. I bought the intense black which is the first eyeliner that has stayed on all day. It gives the illusion of me having lashes.

This gel liner is awful and should be discontinued. If I could give zero stars, I would. The liner breaks, dries out very fast and the round sponge on the end is useless. I lost the receipt or else I would go for a refund.

Not smudge resistant!

29 days ago
The only good thing I can say about Infallible 36 hours gel mechanical liner is the ease with which I can line the waterline of my upper eyelid. Other than that, I find the ad misleading: I used Brown Denim on my upper eyelid, and within two hours, the entire line smeared over to my lower eyelid and further down. So the product is not smudge resistant.

Love the jersey blue color. I have been using it with the infallible pro-last long wear eye pencil but it loses it's point easily and when you sharpen it the material around it doesn't get removed easily. It feels like wood scratching my lids. But I love the 2 together. Wish you would make like the jersey blue product which doesn't have this problem. Otherwise, Great Product!!!

Poor design since it won’t allow you to turn.

2 years ago
I have recently bought 3 of the infallible pro-last eyeliners and both of the first 2 did not turn once I used the part that was already exposed. So I paid a lot for faulty products. I didn’t open the third. I am switching to another brand. I used this product for years before the design was changed and liked it with no problems in the past.

Hello Disappointed. We are sorry you had this experience. The Infallible Pro8Last eye liner must be sharpened. To sharpen tip, gently twist bottom of pencil to the right until pencil point is sharpened to desired point for use. The Grip Mechanical Gel Makeup Eyeliner is self-advancing. We hope this helps!

Good drugstore liner.

This is a good drugstore liner especially for the price. It is a bit dry so I definitely recommend warming it up on the back of your hand before you use it. I haven't used the smudger on the other side but it seems a bit big for the eye area. It lasted the whole day and gives off a nice matte black color.

Pretty Good Gel Liner!

3 years ago
I've been really enjoying using this product! I don't typically use gel liners often, but I definitely wanted to give this one a try. I use it in the lower outer corner of my eye and it lasts pretty well throughout the day. There is the smallest bit of fall out where I'll notice a couple of specks below my eye towards the end of the day, but nothing too noticeable. What I really love is the smudging tool! It blends the eyeliner just enough so that it looks smooth and not patchy, but without looking too messy either!

Yes, I recommend this product.

It's better as a lid liner than a top type of wing for me. It is very hard to get off and I don't like having to scrub hard on my eyes so that's only downfall. But if you want it to last a long time then it would be great! I like that you can smudge it for a Smokey eye too.
