Maybelline Hyper Easy Liquid Eyeliner Reviews

I was so glad I got to try this little wonder of an eyeliner. I am constantly looking for the next best thing when it comes to liquid eyeliner and was pleasantly surprised with this one.

The pen is pretty, petite and very sleek looking - it could easily pass as a high end product as opposed to drugstore.

I love the grip that the hexagonal pen gives, makes applying the liner very smooth and easy.

The liner has a nice fine tip and the colour is very opaque. It only takes one application for a beautiful colour pay off, you don't need to go over it again (you can if you want to)

I wore this for 12 hours one day and it hadn't smudged so the staying power is excellent too.

It is a little hard to remove at the end of the day however that's a good thing when it comes to eyeliner right?

This is officially my new fave liner, it is super intense black that doesn't budge all day.

The tip on this is super precise and a little flexible which makes getting close to the lashline super easy as I tend to lay the liner down and drag it across. The lid fastens tightly so I don't have to stress about the liner drying out or the lid falling off in my makeup bag. Overall such a great product with a fabulous price point.

So I'm a sucker for a good eyeliner and was super excited to trial this one. It's got a cute hexagonal shape and looks really nice. Easy to tell apart from all the other round shaped penciles/liners you might have lying around. The only downside is i can hardly open it. The lid is *really* secure and despite the extra edges from the hexagon there's really not much to grip on and it generally takes me 2-3 attempts to get the lid off, and the force required to pull it can end up with you drawing on your hand when it finally gives. If you have greasy hands from applying primer or foundation then you'll most definitely struggle, and this would be super difficult for anyone with reduced grip strength or only the use of one arm.

The formula itself stays well on either bare lids or on eyeshadow base, it doesn't flake and the brush tip is nice and fine - enabling really nice precision lining. It doesn't smudge and a picture I drew on the back of my hand lasted through a day of washing and a shower - only coming off when I scrubbed it. Easily removed with makeup remover though.

Personally not a fan of the shape as I think I'm just too used to rounded eyeliners, but it's most definitely by far the thinnest and easiest liquid eyeliner I've used to date! It has a really soft fine tip that doesn't drag the skin, but instead glides over for the perfect wing every time!

Also, doesn't smudge during the day but does flake off if rubbed.

I wear liquid eyeliner pretty much every day and have about 3 different types in my collection already, always excited to try a new one!!

Firstly I love the colour of the packaging and the tube on this eyeliner, don't love packaging but it needs to have some, size wise the packaging is ok as it's quite small. Really like the shape of the tube! The hexagonal grip is really cool and really makes it easier to grip when applying.

The lid comes off easily and is also easily replaced and clicks in nicely so is nice and safe. The tip is great as it's nice and thin and tapered and really easy to apply - you can make your line nice and thin or add more to thicken it up a bit.

Nice and black, it goes on easily and is not gappy - the tip is nice and soft as well. So my previous liquid eyeliners all seemed to smudge if my eyes ran (and they do a bit due to hayfever), but this eyeliner seemed to stay put! Definitely a step up from other liquid eyeliners as it does what it says in this area and stays put!

In regards to removal at night, I use a micellar or cream cleanser and both of these removed the eyeliner easily without much hassle.

All in all I really like this liquid eyeliner, I will continue to use it and I will be purchasing more when this one runs out!

I’m SO happy I was chosen for this trial team as I would never have tried this otherwise. I prefer to stick with the products I know, and don’t usually experiment with other brands. I’m definitely one of those people who orders the exact same thing every time I go to McDonald’s. But back to the eyeliner! It comes in simple packaging, easy instructions on the back along with some info about what the product does. Sometimes you really have to wrestle the product out of its packaging, but not in this case - no problems getting it out. What I immediately noticed was how easy the pen is to hold due to its hexagonal shape, this made it extremely easy to apply in a nice even line. I applied the eyeliner in the morning to see how it would last all day. I have quite hooded/sunken eyelids so what usually happens by the end of the day is that my eyeliner has smudged all over the top lid, giving me a deranged smokey eye that I never asked for. Anyway, I didn’t hold out much hope for this product because it was so liquidy and thick. Nevertheless I found it very easy to apply a lovely even line that was neither too thin nor too thick, and it did dry incredibly fast. I’ll be honest, I forgot it was there. I kept catching myself rubbing an eye, and I took a really hot and steamy bath just before dinner, I even splashed water on my face to wash away the sweat from all the steam. Now, while the rest of my makeup had faded away after all that, I was genuinely impressed and shocked that the lines I had applied so much earlier in the day were still neatly in place, just as black and solid as they were from the start. And do you know what? Not a single shadow of eyeliner on my top lids. No deranged smokey eyes. The eyeliner is also very easy to remove. I use the Essano Micellar Rosewater makeup remover, and it honestly just came off without rubbing. Surprising considering how it stayed in place so well all day.

I’ll probably never try another eyeliner again considering how impressed I am with this eyeliner. But let’s look at the product claims: Up to 24-hour wear - I didn’t wear this eyeliner for 24 hours but certainly believe that this claim can hold up! Waterproof - I’ll say! I mean, I don’t know how well this eyeliner will hold up if I went for a proper dip in the ocean or the local pools, but it definitely survived a 40 minute steaming bath and splash in the face. Smudge resistant - Definitely! Number one favourite thing about this liner is that it didn’t smudge or transfer to my upper eyelids. Easy lines - Pretty easy application due to the hexagonal shape of the pen, and the large, soft flex brush tip. Smooth glide - Yeah man. Liquid eyeliner is my fave for this very reason. Just one easy fluid motion to achieve a great standout line. No skipping - Yeah, no skipping whatsoever! Just really simple and easy application with great results!

Love, love, LOVE! Thank you, Beauty Review!
