Maybelline HyperGlossy Liquid Liner ~ Review, Swatch & EOTD

By Vishanne @VishAnne
Maybelline HyperGlossy Liquid Liner Claims:
  • Intense Black Color with high shine finish Easy to apply.
  • Gives complete control for sleek or thick bold line 24HR wear.
  • Smudge proof formula

  Price: 225 INR for 3gm
Shelf Life: 2.5 years     My Expectations: When it comes to liquid liners I have shaky hands so I always stay away from them. The Maybelline HyperGlossy Eyeliner is an impulsive buy as I got lured by the word ‘HyperGlossy’.  I am a big fan of intense liners and I personally feel gel and pencil eye liners cannot give the intensity a liquid liner gives especially when it’s wet. So I had to buy this and obviously I am expecting wet glossy intense effect even after the liquid liner dries.    

Look & Feel

 
  • Package: Sleek, stylish and travel-friendly. It just fits into everything
  • Shade: BLACK. A very intense shade of black.
  • Applicator: The brush is very thin and light to use but I am not so convenient with the long handle. But, again it’s a personal preference.

  • Texture: Smooth liquid with the right consistency to draw lines without clumping. Once dried the eye-liner feels a little stretchy on the lid.

HyperGlossy Liner Effects


  • Drying Time? Just in seconds. It keeps drying even while we are applying. But again I do take a full minute to finish with one eye. No other choice I am bad with liquid liners
  • Smudge Proof? Yes totally.  For me, all the eyeliners usually smudge at the inner corner but this stays intact.

 

  • Finish? Intense dark liner with a glossy sheen. The quality of the eye-liner is fabulous and it does exactly what it claims. But to be honest I didn’t like the glossy liner on my eyes especially if I am going for a thick line. I just like to use this eyeliner to draw outer wings.

  • Water Resistant? No. But it doesn’t bleed too. It peels of neatly and I actually love this quality as I don’t have to use any makeup removers separately.
  • Lasting Power? Till next face wash as it's not water resistant. But other-wise the effects lasts for almost 7 hours.

Cost Efficiency: Worth every penny.

Final Note   Maybelline again does an awesome job in bringing quality eye-liner at an affordable price. This eye-liner is really a good buy if you want to try glossy liner. The only downside is the slight stretchy feeling it gives with thick lines.     Dear Readers: Let me know your opinion about "Maybelline HyperGlossy Liquid Liner" in the 'Will You Buy It' section and share your feedback about the review through comments.
