Maybelline India Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner (36 Hours) - Only our oil-free formula can hold highly concentrated pigments in a clear gel base so color is more intense and lines resist wear for hours. Smudge-proof and waterproof, the most most intense line for lasting drama.
A basic black eyeliner is a must-have for me, and the Maybelline Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner has been one of my most-used makeup products, so I was quite happy to get a chance to try out Maybelline India's recently launched 36-Hour Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner in Black. This is the reformulated/improved version of the 12-Hour eyeliner that came in a round pot. This newer version promises up to 36 hours of long-lasting color. It also comes in a lighter (plastic) pot, and like the older version, this too comes with a fabulous eyeliner brush. Scroll on for more photos.
Maybelline Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner (36 H) delivers on all its promises - it's black, goes on smooth, is easy to apply with the brush, and lasts pretty much the whole day. I have never tested any liner beyond about 6-8 hours, so I really cannot comment on the 36 hour staying power, but the eyeliner does stay on without smudging the whole day long. Here's a look at the swatches.
Overall, Maybelline 36-Hour Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner is a pretty good product. It stays put the whole day, no smudging or flaking, and no messy raccoon eyes at the end of the day. I do have oily skin/eyelids, so I am quite impressed with the lasting power, but adding in my disclaimer: I do live in a place with low humidity and cooler weather. I love, love, love the eyeliner brush that Maybelline includes in the package. It's easy to control the thickness of the line, and I found the brush soft enough to use even on my waterline. Clean the brush after each use - wipe off on a makeup wipe for a quick clean - and the brush should last a long, long time. I haven't had any irritation either with using this product along the waterline (but I haven't had any issues with even the older version of this product). A black eyeliner is basic makeup must-have, and Maybelline's Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner in Black is basics done right!
