Stephanie L: Recommended from a third party reviewer as long lasting. Chose a different color for me because blue/black is supposed to go with my coloring. Nov 20, 2012
Theresa D: I use BB gel liner and find it dries out, hope this is better. I love gel liners!
OK so I have used this now, and it is a great blue color last all day, the texture is strange and maybe a little harder to apply. I have dark blue eyes with yellow rays, sometimes my eyes look green. The blue is not screaming loud but does bring out my eyes. I hear blue eye color is back for spring 2013. Guess I got lucky on that one. Now the question is what shadow to pair with it???

Agnieszka B: I was looking for a long-lasting gel eyeliner and read a vary positive review in Allure magazine about this product. The more I read people said about it in reviews online - the more I was sure this is the greatest gel eyeliner out there! Aug 14, 2012

Leslie W: My sister-in-law nichole burston works for armani and gave it to me for christmas and i loved it. I get compliments all the time about how well it goes with my hazel eyes May 17, 2012
Susanne B: Saw it recommended in Real Simple, and have now used it for a year. It is terrific - I wear it nearly every day - and I'm retired! It gives my eyes some definition without looking too fake, and it wears very well. One tip - clean your brush with Skin So Soft. You can also add a drop if the eyeliner gets a little dry. As I said, I have used one pot for an entire year. May 17, 2012

Hi - I'm tempted to try this product, but concerned about the the pot drying out too quickly. This has been a big problem with other brands that I've purchased. Wondering if YSL would be different.? I have smaller dark brown eyes. Best, Nancy
Aug 14, 2012
gina c:
this is my 3rd pot. none of them ever dried up and i use them daily until they are empty. the gel remains smooth and soft unlike my experience with bobbi brown's gel eyeliners which are dry even when brand new. i use this every day since i discovered it in the spring of 2012 and i will never switch. it's awesome!!

Agnieszka B:
Hi Nancy! I've been using YSL eyeliner for about two months now and I haven't noticed the gel to get dry at all! It's still soft, silky and goes on smooth. It's really worth the money. Just to be sure - Close the lid after each use. I don't recommend leaving any makeup product open for that matter. Enjoy! Anies

Susanne B:
I bought the black eyeliner in May, and mine has not dried out yet. I keep it tightly closed when not in use, and I like it a lot. I wear it most days (even though I'm retired and not going to work) and find it wears well. You can make a very fine line if you use the right brush.

Debra B:
I have found that the product has remained soft and creamy in the pot, even though it dries quickly (and is smudge-proof) once applied. I do make sure to keep the lid screwed on tightly - I'm sure you would too - and I haven't had a problem.

I recommend dark purple, brown and dark blue for dark green eyes. For an intense look, line the top of your eye with dark purple and your lower lashline with black or brown.

A shopper asked:
I have dark brown hair and eyes and am 68 years old. I was wondering if I should go with deep black or ashy black for my eyeliner?
Barbara Dec 24, 2012

Julie H:
Depends on your skin tone. If gray clothes normally make you look good, then ashy black will look good on you. Black is classic, but harsh. If you are going to use thin lines, then black is ok. Otherwise, I think ashy black will be a nice, sophisticated option.

Diana R:
I find that black is becoming a little too harsh so I've been leaning toward dark grays. I haven't seen the ashy black but i'd imagine it's not so black. Sooo I guess I'm saying ashy black.

I would go with the ashy black. It would better compliment your eyes. Love this product - stays on all day always looking fresh, buts comes off easily.

Nancy C:
I have not tried. I only do the top eyelid in a "winged" style and I think this eyeliner is great! I like the Marilyn retro look! You should try it with red lips. I must add. I'm an eyeliner junkie. And have bought all the high end brands and this one is one of the best!

Yvette K:
Hi
I found this eyeliner to be very 'wet'. It transfer-ed very quickly when I used it to line my upper lash line and I sent it back. I would advise against the inner eyelid as it would get extremely messy. Hope this helps. Mar 10, 2012

Larissa I:
I personally never use the cream eyeliners on the inner eyelind, only the pencil ones. However, I believe it can be used on the innder eyelid though the applicator for it has to be very thin and preferably bended.

Barb G:
Thank you. I find the pencil doesn't apply well or adhere for long. Guess I haven't tried the right brand. I do like a brand that has the applicator you describe but it does come with a pot of cream liner.(which always dries out eventually. I think I will give pencils another try as lining the inner eyelid seems to be flattering for my eye shape and color.
Mar 12, 2012
Larissa I:
Right, I wish I could recommend more but I am not a professional makeup artist so I won't attempt. For reference, I use Chanel eyeliner pencil in Coffee Bean shade (other Chanel shades do not work for me) and apply it closer to the lash line (on the lower eyelid) as opposed to inner eyelid. I also make sure to use mascara on my lower lashes so that eyeliner doesn't look goth:)
Mar 12, 2012
Yvonne E:
I actually do not do that - at least not since college. Based on the formula, you can lightly line the inner eye.

Thank you, Yvonne. I do better with inner lining not on top due to my eyelid and eye shape/color.

Could someone please better explain in details the colors: "Ashy Black" (is this like a charcoal grey?) & "Bronze Black" (it looks like a khaki color in the picture). Thanks!

Monique H:
Bonjour! Ashy Black is like very dark black grey chimney soot color,and I love it! It imakes tbe perfect smokey eye with just the right mix of black and grey.
Bronze Black is a dark copper color with a warm undertone and it really makes my dark brown eyes pop! I wear it everyday to have a more defined eye. May 31, 2013

Marilee L:
The ashy black is a deep grey and not as harsh as black can sometimes be depending upon skin tone and eye color. The bronze black picks up on hazel or green coloring in the eyes. It looks a little darker than the swatch. Hope this helps.

I have the bronze black which I ordered b/c I like black/brown. It's s little more subtle than straight black. I had the ashy black first & sent it back b/c it was too stark for me.

A shopper asked:
could you use the eyeliner on your eyelids as a base?
Oct 1, 2012
carol g:
I think you probably could but you would have to use it very sparingly. When I use it as a liner, I blend it near the base of the lashes as if I had used a soft pencil. I can definitely see it as an accent color but I don't know about as a base. All you can do is try it. It certainly can't hurt. It's meant for your eyelids anyway ;-)

Cream Eyeliner Brush from YSL ($25). I bought mine 6 months ago but it is totally useless and messed up now so I need to get a new one. The line will not be super thin with this brush,however, it is draws a nice accurate line.
