✨ Maybelline New York Tattoo Liner Gel Pencil – 901 Intense Charcoal ✨
Define your eyes with intense, smouldering depth using the Maybelline New York Tattoo Liner Gel Pencil in 901 Intense Charcoal. This sharpenable gel pencil delivers ultra-saturated, matte grey colour with a smooth, creamy glide that makes application effortless. Designed for up to 36 hours of waterproof, smudge-resistant wear, it is the ultimate choice for anyone who wants a defined, dramatic eye look that lasts from day to night and beyond.
**Why Choose Maybelline Tattoo Liner in Intense Charcoal?**
The Tattoo Liner range is renowned for its impressive longevity and pigment payoff, and Intense Charcoal is a versatile, sophisticated shade within the collection. It is a matte grey eyeliner that offers a softer, more modern alternative to harsh black, while still providing intense, eye-defining colour. It is perfect for creating a range of looks, from a subtle tightline to a bold, graphic wing, and its neutral grey tone flatters all skin tones and eye colours. Whether you want a natural, everyday definition or a dramatic, smoky effect, this shade delivers.
**The Formula: Creamy, Pigmented, and Long-Lasting**
What sets this gel pencil apart is its high-performance formula. The texture is incredibly soft and creamy, gliding onto the eyelid without any tugging or skipping. It delivers rich, opaque colour in a single stroke, so you don’t need to layer it repeatedly to achieve a bold look. Once applied, the waterproof, smudge-resistant, fade-resistant, and sebum-resistant formula locks in place for up to 36 hours, ensuring your eye look stays pristine through work, workouts, and whatever else your day brings.
The creamy texture is a standout feature. It glides on smoothly, allowing you to blend and smudge the colour before it sets. This makes it ideal for creating a soft, smoky eye or a natural, diffused liner look. Once it sets, the colour locks in place, resisting smudging and fading throughout the day. The formula is also ophthalmologically tested, making it suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.

**How to Use for Best Results**
1. **Sharpen**: Use a quality cosmetic sharpener to create a fine point.

3. **Smudge (Optional)**: For a softer, smoky effect, smudge the line with a brush or your fingertip while the product is still wet.
4. **Set**: Allow the product to dry completely for maximum longevity.
5. **Remove**: Use a makeup remover or oil-based cleanser to gently remove at the end of the day.
**What Customers Say**
Real reviews from real users highlight the shade’s performance and the formula’s longevity:
> “I have been paying £25 for Bobby Brown gel eyeliner in a pot that always dries up! This is just as good for a fraction of the cost. I used it for tightlining and it stays on all day, I’m delighted.”
> “Really good price. Stayed put all night. Will be purchasing more colours.”
> “Excellant product. It does what it says – it stays for most of a long day.”
**Important Notes from Users**
– **Sharpening Challenges**: A common point of feedback is that the pencil can be difficult to sharpen. Some users have found that the tip can break or that the product doesn’t advance easily. Using a high-quality cosmetic sharpener and avoiding over-extending the pencil is recommended. Some users have resorted to pushing the product up from the bottom with a small tool.
– **Smudging on Oily Skin**: A few users with very oily lids or teary eyes have reported some smudging after a few hours. Using an eye primer or setting the liner with a matching eyeshadow can help improve longevity.
– **Shade Perception**: Intense Charcoal is a matte grey. It is not a deep, jet black, so if you are looking for an intense, inky black liner, this may be softer than expected.
**Who Is This Eyeliner For?**
The Maybelline Tattoo Liner Gel Pencil in Intense Charcoal is ideal for:
– Anyone who loves a sophisticated, matte grey alternative to black eyeliner
– Those who want long-lasting, waterproof colour for busy days or special events
– Makeup lovers who appreciate a creamy, blendable formula that sets in place
– People with sensitive eyes or contact lens wearers seeking a gentle formula
– Anyone looking for an affordable, high-quality gel pencil that performs like a premium product
