NEW YORK Pro Intense Gel Eyeliner with Built-In Sharpener, Waterproof, Smudge-Proof, Long Lasting Gel Eyeliner Pencil (Black)

I bought this eyeliner expecting a solid, inexpensive backup. What I got instead was a daily staple that quietly outperformed several liners I’ve paid way more for. Sometimes drugstore makeup really does wake up and choose excellence. Ease of application: This goes on smoothly with zero tugging. One swipe gives you deep, inky black color without having to press, layer, or wrestle your eyelid into submission. It has that true gel-pencil feel where it glides easily but still gives you control. Functionality: The built-in sharpener is surprisingly useful and keeps the tip precise without hunting for tools. The pencil format makes it easy to do everything from a tight line to a smoked-out lash look. It’s flexible without being messy. Stay-on power: Once this sets, it’s not going anywhere. I’m talking all-day wear without migrating, fading, or slowly inching its way down my face. No raccoon eyes. No mid-day mirror checks. Waterproof & smudge-proof: This eyeliner earns both labels. It holds up through humidity, watery eyes, and long days. You have a short window to smudge it if that’s your plan, but after that, it locks in place and commits. Quality: The pigment is rich, the formula is consistent, and the pencil feels well-made. It doesn’t crumble, dry out, or skip, which is impressive at this price point. Value: At around $5, this is a steal. The performance rivals liners three to four times the price, and it does exactly what it promises without drama. Bottom line: creamy, intensely pigmented, easy to apply, and stubborn in the best way. Five stars and an easy recommendation if you want bold eyeliner that stays put without draining your makeup budget.

What a shock! This is better than my $18 eyeliner in terms of staying put! Goes on creamy and has a built-in sharpener and sells for $5.00. Good grief. I love it.

Favorite liner bc of the rich color and how smoothly it goes on. Added tip: put eye primer over eyes first and alloe to dry. Then add liner for all day, no smudge effect and more vivid color. No irritation, lasts all day, seems like it won't run out for a couple months. Great value.

Easy to apply and waterproof

Great product! And for the price I can buy every color.

Too smudgy. Waterproof is a plus. Product doesn’t last long.

went on smooth at tear line, didnt stay on the entire shift I worked, kind of hard to take off with soap and water but oil works.

I love gel eyeliners, sometimes they are too thick. This liner went on smooth, it's thin enough to put on the lash line without smearing. Will buy again
