LA Girl Glide Gel Liner Review

I was really surprised by these liners. I bought a couple of these as they were such a good price and thought it really didnt matter if they turned out to be terrible.

I've had a few LA Girl products that I havent loved so I didnt have super high hopes for these. However I was very wrong.

These were really easy to use they really did just glide along my lash line super smoothly. The formula is creamy and super pigmented. I was worried that these would only last a few hours, but these held up all day until I took my makeup off which I was really happy with especially considering the price they really exceeded expectations.

I did run into a bit of trouble when I had to sharpen one of these but I used a normal pencil sharpener so really my own fault I have lost my cosmetic sharpener so I wont hold it against them.

I will definately be buying more of these in different colours

I was in our local Unichem picking up a script and started looking at some sample liners on the counter. The sales lady told me these particular liners were exceptionally good value for money, only $5.00 each and also made in Germany which I guess must be good. There was an awful lot of colours to choose from, several shades of black, brown, blue, turquoise, gold, you name it, they had it. So I finally chose the deep bronze colour which looked like a dark brown. It is a soft and creamy, highly pigmented formula that glides on easily, doesn't smudge once it is set and lasts all day for me. Easily sharpened, just put in fridge beforehand. I highly recommend this liner.

I wanted to give these a try after being gifted a La girl lip liner. What I notice about La girl is that some products are better than others. I got my eye liner from a dollar store in Papamoa . Couldn't wait to try it out.

These pencils come in a variety of colours. I chose a Black pencil because it's a staple colour in my make up looks. This pencil is a normal size has the La girl labelling on it. Consistency of this is smooth. Smoother than other gel pencils I've tried. Has no scent at all.

Before I apply I always sharpen it. It didn't have any breakage in between sharpening. It glides on my lower and upper lash line easily. I find it easy to blend out. I got about 3 hours solid wear time and it did begin fade on my lower lash line. In summer this eye liner is susceptible to heat and will need storing in a cool place.

These pencils are pocket friendly . Their easy to find at selected stores. I only paid three dollars at the time. After trying this colour I would Definately like to try some brighter colours out. Definately recommend trying these out.

I'm a huge stickler when it comes to eyeliners. I've tried many over the years that have sadly been a disappointment - not black enough, too smudgy, hard to work with etc.

However I'm happy to report that this one is not any of those disappointments.

It does exactly what it says it does and that is that it glides on easily. It has a slightly creamy/gel type texture that shows great pigmentation.

I bought these in 3 shades - Deep Black, Whiten and Royal Blue. I really like the Royal Blue, really makes me eyes pop and I've had a few compliments when wearing this. The Whiten - I'm not quite sure whether I'm doing this one right but I find it too thick and gluggy, not like the other two. The Deep Black is my favourite and will be my go to eyeliner in the future.

I just wanted to note also that I have super sensitive eyes and I find it hard to find an eyeliner that does not irritate or make my eyes itch. This one is great for those with eye sensitivity.

The big question - does it smudge? If I'm honest yes it does a little but that is only if you rub your eyes like I sometimes do and I forget I have it on and wallah - black panda emerges. It will also depend on the season at the time too - in the summer time I would highly recommend using some form of a setting spray or powder if that is a possibility with eyeliner. Need to look into that part a bit more.

Highly recommend and I would have given 5 stars if it hadn't been for the Whiten not being so great.

I have this gel liner in a beautiful reddy gold colour. It's super creamy and lasts on my eyes all day. I was on the search for a gold liner and for the price, this cant be beaten. It doesn't apply well to the waterline but it's great apart from that!

Coloured eyeliners are an absolute staple for me - they're a simple way to create a day look with a bit of punch, or as the base for a more intense shadow look.

LA Girl Gel Liners are surprisingly awesome. Surprising because they are inexpensive, that is. These little gems are well able to compete with the pricier brands.

I have this in the shade 'Paradise Purple' which is a rich amethyst shade that is well pigmented. The creamy gel formula means you get a decent, solid line on the first swipe.

The colour lasts a decent time given the price - certainly gets me through my work day - and sits nicely on the eyelid or lash line without a lot of bleeding or smearing.

Great on it's own; even better blended in with a teal and a pink, or underneath a purple, pink, or bright look - but I've used it well with black and silver too.

Also great on lower lashline :)

My only critique - I can't remember where I got this one and haven't found them since!!

Also, it would be nice to be able to sharpen it to a slightly finer point.

I am so impressed with this liner. It is super cheap,, really pigmented and has great saying power.

The packaging on this is nice. It's an allover black with a base and writing that matches the color of the liner. This would be really handy if you have a few of these and want to easily find a color. The cap is clear and fits on really securely, I'm not concerned that it will fall off at all.

The actual liner is really creamy and soft. You do not need to push hard at all on your eyes to get color pay off. I do find its a little hard to sharpen though and it breaks off easily. I do probably need a better sharpener though.

I've used this on my upper and lower lash line plus my waterline. It stays about half the day in my waterline which is pretty decent but what amazes me the most is how it won't budge on my upper lash line. I usually can't wear pencil liners up there because i will get ugly transfer marks. This stays exactly where i put it and lasts all day.

i have the color royal blue which a medium, metallic blue. It's really pretty and i love how it looks with a neutral eyeshadow look.

i definitely want to buy more of these. I purchased this one on beauty joint, i had a look in my local postie plus but they didn't have this brand which was a shame. I totally recommend this liner to anyone who is looking for an affordable pencil liner from their collection.

When I first bought it I was a bit apprehensive due to the price, but I once I tried it I fell in love. It has amazing staying power, comes in a range of colours and has a beautiful creamy texture. It is simply a pleasure to use. I especially love their bronzey browny colour as it is super wearable, and a nice alternative to brown.

I'm totally new to the LA Girl brand and because the products are totally affordable I decided to try a few.

This eyeliner is fantastic value for money. It is super pigmented. I got a dark blue and I just cant get over how gorgeous the colour is.

It has a lovely creamy texture and no drag when applying. I wear it a good eight house and only wears off a little. If you were wanting to do a smokey look this blends quite well.

There's no smell(that I can smell) and its a twist up eyeliner rather than pencil, which I prefer anyway

I love a good richly pigmented smudgy eyeliner pencil, but unfortunately most pencils that fit that description continue to smudge throughout the day… and I DON’T love ending up with streaks of eyeliner all over my eyelids and halfway down my face. This is why, when I purchased this LA Girl gel pencil, I was happily surprised and quickly convinced of its awesomeness.

I have mine in the shade Dark Brown, which is a lovely deep chocolatey brown that’s dark enough to be defining without being as harsh as black. I love the packaging for these pencils – the main casing is black, but the pattern, bottom and writing is in the colour of the actual pencil, which makes it easy to find in the makeup drawer.

The pencil itself is extremely creamy and extremely pigmented. I don’t have to press hard or tug when drawing across my lashline, and it’s basically a pleasure to apply. It takes about 30 seconds to set properly, so that gives time to smudge it out further if needed, but once it’s set it doesn’t budge. I don’t have any problems with it travelling anywhere else on my face (yay! haha), and it even holds up pretty well in the inner part of my eyelid (I tend to rub my eyes, so most things don’t last through that, but this pretty much does), and the colour doesn’t fade away during the day either. I don’t ever apply it to my waterline, as I don’t like how that looks on me, so I can’t comment on staying power there, but I imagine it would last well compared to a normal pencil liner.

My only complaint with this is that because the pencil is so soft and creamy it can be a bit hard to sharpen easily, although a good cosmetic sharpener is definitely better than a normal pencil sharpener. Apart from that, however, this is a seriously great, inexpensive eyeliner that lasts amazingly. I’m definitely planning on picking up some of the other colours soon!
