KIKO MilanoLasting Gel Eyeliner | Gel eyeliner

Absolutely brilliant, truly waterproof and definitely no smudge after seconds of drying. I definitely recommend 💕💕💕💕

I needed an eyeliner which would stay on in even the worst hay-fever days, when my eyes are a damp sticky mess. This eyeliner is amazing!! It stays on even if you have severe allergies or go swimming. Once it has dried it literally never smudges.It's super easy to get off, you just need an oil based remover, I usually just use castor oil on a pad to get it off as castor oil is good for your lashes.The only downside is the product doesn't last too long once you've opened it, it does tend to go gloopy after a month or so, and I've not found a way to get it smooth again. Once it's gone gloopy it doesn't stay on your eyes as well, it sort of dries up on your skin.It is quite similar to the Mac waterproof liner, but is much better value for money so I stick to Kiko.

I have sweaty, hooded eyelids and my eyes water a lot. Unfortunately for myself, I love winged eyeliner. For years, I've tried many different eyeliners, from liquids to pens and pencils. Finally, I've tried gel eyeliner and it was so much better, had a lot more pigmentation, and was easier to apply, but I still struggled with smudging in the outer corners - I have accepted that this was due to my eyes, not the product.My usual brand of gel eyeliner was out of stock and I needed a fresh pot ASAP, so I decided to try out Kiko.This gel, let me tell you, it's absolutely amazing. It glides on smoothly, dries quickly and it stays on all day. And I mean over 14 hours! I can sweat, I can cry, I can even take a shower and it does not budge at all.However, it's not perfect. The product dries within a few weeks and then it becomes hard to apply and crumbles a lot quicker than when it's new. This means that there's always some waste as it becomes impossible to apply. Not a big deal for me, but it might be very wasteful for someone who does not use it as frequently as I do.

I have been using this eyeliner for years. It’s matte (which I personally prefer) and smudge proof. I use it everyday just for the wing, as my eyes can get quite watery, and this way it lasts me months! Water resistance is 10/10. I’ve fully submerged underwater, wore it to water parks, wiped my eyes and it stayed on. Consistency is quite thick so you need to know what you’re doing when you apply it, otherwise it might be tricky to keep it neat. As any waterproof products you need a special oily solution to remove it (coconut oil does the job for me). All in all, great value for money

This is easy to apply because of its consistency and the fine brush applicator. It then stays in place until removed with eye makeup remover. This is usually a plus, but when I rushed application I found that I couldn’t remove the mistake without having to remove all my eye makeup and starting again. I now remember that I have to allow a few seconds for it to dry. When I apply it right though, I am very pleased that nothing is going to shift it until I want to remove it. Definitely the best eyeliner I have found at this price point.

It’s wetter than I had expected, smudged a little.

GOAT: This is the one you’ve been looking for!I wanted to wait until I’d tested this eyeliner before I wrote a review. I’ve been using it for 3 weeks now and I have found my forever product, please don’t discontinue this Kiko! I have been wearing gel eyeliner for over 15 years. I started with the big guns (Bobbi Brown/MAC) and then moved to Maybelline Lasting Drama as it was more affordable. That has been recently discontinued so I had to find a new one. I did some research and read all the reviews of the Kiko before I bought it. I am SO impressed with this product. I have watery, itchy, sensitive eyes that are hayfever prone. I need an eyeliner that does not budge, and blimey this one doesn’t. I took it on holiday and wore it on a boat trip. Sea, sun, streaming eyes. It did not move. I am now in love with this eyeliner. It’s buttery soft in the pot, glides on like a dream and does not come off until you take it off. I know it’s probably going to go hard in the pot but they all do, anyone who knows gel eyeliner like I do knows you only get about half of the pot before it goes off. Don’t hesitate, buy this. You won’t regret it!

Do NOT buy this. I usually use Maybelline gel liner and this looked the same so I bought it. It dries on your lashes making them clump together and it makes your eyes feel heavy and tired.
