MAC Gel Eye-Liner - review.

My mum went away this weekend to London and as a treat (I assume for leaving me alone/looking after our animals) she asked me if there was anything from MAC (there are no counters around these parts) while she was up there. I've been after a gel eye-liner for ages so what took the opportunity to ask for the MAC gel eye-liner (and she also got me the brush too, I'm very lucky!):

MAC Fluidline Eye-liner Gel in Blacktrack.
MAC 210 Precise Eye-Liner Brush.

It goes on really smoothly and easily although I recommend using the correct brush (or a very thin brush) as you only need a little and that little bit goes a LONG way.  

As you can see it comes out quite dark. In the pot you get 3 grams, I've only used it twice now and I know it will last me forever! 

This is me at the end of the day today after wearing it to work, I haven't touched it up. It holds SO well and doesn't smudge. Not too sure if its waterproof yet but a new episode of Glee is on tomorrow so I'm sure I will find out watching that!

Not much else to say except it's amazing, definite value for money, goes on like a dream and stays on all day. So happy with this product after 2 days of owning it I don't think I will go back to liquid liner!

What is your favourite eyeliner?

  6. I sympathise with your lack of MAC counters, we have zero around here too. The eyeliner looks really nice, I'm jealous, because I can't use them my eyes are so sensitive and hate eyeliner and mascara :(

  12. This stuff is actually amazing, i have a habit of dipping the brush, then putting it in the lid to control the amount i use! the only down fall about it is, that i find one coat can be quiet transparent. Your make up looks flawless! :)

  13. You look so pretty! I love your curly hair (:
    I heard so much good things about that gel liner, I need to give it a try!

  14. I'm still on a hunt for a good eyeliner. or maybe the problem is me lol I can't do the cat eyes look with the eyeliner, it ends up looking like a dot smudge.

  18. You look so pretty on these pictures, i am loving this eyeliner! I haven't used a gel one, plus i'm useless with eyeliner anyway but i think this NEEDS to be purchased!

  19. You look amazing! It's times like this that I wish I still had my gel eyeliner & brush, but alas (I didn't screw the lid on tight enough and it dried out and my brush was a victim of a drunken incident and was thrown out the window...!!)

  23. Beautiful! I'm a total eyeliner junkie and I usually use Urban Decay's liquid eyeliner - great range of colours too! But I'm really tempted by the Mac one after this post. xx

  24. i usually can't manage gel/liquid eyeliners without stabbing myself in the eye with the stupid brush and looking like marilyn manson, but you've inspired me to give it another try :D you look so pretty!

  28. It looks amazing! Am v. jealous of your makeup ability - I am so cackhanded with liquid liner!

    ReplyDelete
  29. I actually have this, and it's wonderful stuff, but i find it very difficult to do eyeliner with a brush. Fancy doing a tutorial?

    ReplyDelete
  30. Bourjois Liner Feutre is my favourite, as it's very black, lasts ages and is easy enough for a clumsy oaf like me to use! It's basically like a sharpie for your eyes.
    Your hair is lovely, btw :)

  31. You have such skillz! I love gel eyeliner but struggle to get it to look right.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Beautiful photos! Your skin looks flawless, what type of foundation do you use (if any)?

    That eyeliner looks incredible! I usually use Barry M's liquid liner, it goes on quite well but it tends to smudge by the end of the day :s

  33. this looks great, don't know if i'll be able to apply it quite as well but i might have to try it :P how much was it? x

  34. Aw I am glad youre enjoying fluidline! :) I am a bit of a clumsy oaf when it comes to eyeliner but this makes it so easy - and I defo agree the matching mac brush is a must have! However I've got the angled one... im pretty sure I got a 210 in my tartan tale brush pack so I might give that a wee try instead. First time I've ever seen your forehead fringe twin, itz pretty!! :P haha. You lovely lass. xx

  35. Your eyes look gorgeous. I bought a gel eyeliner from Primark this time last year and still have over half the pot left. It's amazing stuff, really makes your eyes stand out. I've been putting my on with a cotton bud but am deffo gonna invest in a brush now after seeing this xx

  36. Looking bloody gorge as per missy!!! I've had my fluidline for over 18 months and there's still loads left. Need to get the 210 brush though. If you want a thicker line use the 266 brush xxx

    ReplyDelete
  37. I need it!!! just hope to be able to use it properly!!!

    ReplyDelete
  38. Love this stuff...though recently I switched to a MAC eyeliner pen that I find a little easier. But Fluidline does go on so smoothly.

    ReplyDelete
  39. ohh love how this looks :)
    definately going to get my hands on it!! x

    ReplyDelete
  40. I've been really tempted on buying that gel liner for some time now! The only thing that kept me from buying it was not being able to apply it properly, but it sure does look a lot better than liquid eye liner! :)

    xo,

  44. I've got that eyeliner, it is really great. Make sure you screw the lid back on properly because it dries up really quickly x

  45. This is my favourite eyeliner. It's the only thing that stays on ALL night. Love it x

  46. I also use this, gel liner is my fav type of liner to use. Another one I also recommend is the long lasting Bobbi Brown gel liner.
