Product Info from Catrice Cosmetics
010 Black Jack with Jack Black
Thanks to its ultra-smooth gel-texture, you don’t have to be a professional top model to create gorgeous and long-lasting eyeliner looks. The CATRICE Gel Eye Liner can be applied as accurately as a liquid eyeliner – for an especially silky finish and fascinating, intense eyes!
Retail Price: around €2.99 euros
available in europe, mine was bought in Germany
The jar is made with thick glass
I've been using the Catrice Gel Eyeliner for about a month now which was also included my Catrice Haul which I posted last month HERE.
It also came with a synthetic, double sided eyeliner brush. Though I am not sure if it is free. The angled brush can really make thin and precise lines while the bent liner brush can make thick lines. Overall, it's not a bad brush.
Catrice gel eyeliner swatch
This is a thin swatch of the product, but it is more intense in person.
I tested its quality and it's definitely amazing. It is waterproof, smudge proof and long lasting. It cannot be removed by just rubbing my fingers. Though it can be removed easily with a makeup remover.
What I like about it...
* inexpensive
* comes in a thick glass jar
* waterproof and smudge proof
* stays long on my lids, does not fade even after 7 hours of wearing it
* the intensity of the shade is easy to build
* has a very creamy and smooth texture
* dries fast after application
* glides easily and does not tug my lids
* no irritation or allergies experienced
What I don't like...
* not easily available
* does not work well if used as an eyeshadow base because it dries quickly
My rating: 5 / 5
I think I just found my Holy Grail gel eyeliner! I have tried the ELF cream eyeliner, Maybelline gel eyeliner, Tony Moly gel eyeliner, Fanny Serrano gel eyeliner, and the Mac Fluidline. I can honestly say that I like this a lot more than the others. As of this moment, I cannot tell how long this will last on the jar, since most gel eyeliners do tend to dry up. Will update this soon.
How about you ladies, have you found your HG gel eyeliners yet?
Until next time.
Cheerios!
