essence | Stay & Play Gel Eyeliner | Super Soft Gel-like Texture | Waterproof & Longlasting | Vegan & Cruelty Free (02 But First Espresso)

It’s a great product. I wanted to try nude eyeliner. It really does make a difference in my eye makeup. It enhances my makeup and gives shape to my eyes. When you leave your eyes without any eyeliner and apply makeup/ concealer around them, eyes look smaller but this one helps in defining eyes. It glides easily on waterline. Easy to apply. Comes off easily.

This is my first time purchasing an Essence gel eyeliner and I was NOT disappointed. The color is a beautiful gunmetal gray with a slight glimmer and rich pigment; it glides on the lid without tugging the skin and lasts all day. I put it on immediately when it arrived and it is perfect-- love it!

Yes, yes. Yes, to these! They are buttery soft to apply and they stay on! I have now purchased several shades. I have mature skin (53), and these are fantastic on my eyes. Applying does not pull on my skin. I have not had any eye irritation. I love how these wear.

The Essence Gel Eyeliner is an excellent budget-friendly product that performs just as well as many high-end brands. The formula is creamy and glides on smoothly without tugging on the eyelids. It provides rich, intense color in a single stroke and is easy to apply, whether you’re creating a thin line or a dramatic wing. I was impressed by its long-lasting wear. Once it sets, it stays in place for hours with minimal smudging or fading. The texture is soft enough for easy blending but dries down nicely for a polished look. It’s perfect for everyday makeup as well as more glamorous styles. Overall, this eyeliner offers amazing quality for the price and is a must-have for anyone looking for a reliable, highly pigmented gel eyeliner.

Buy it! i had another pencil from this company and lost it so i bought this right away after seeing the good ratings. it does smudge if you rub it but i like that effect, it also lasts pretty good against water! suchhhh good coverage and so easily glides on skin, it looked so dull and hard but glides like butterrrrr get it! i got the espresso one i think and a nude one, looks SO good LOVE IT!!

Goes on great, looks great. But it not being a twist up one makes it seem like it wears down too fast? Idk. I don't usually use pencil liners. It also does smudge, I do 12 hour overnight shifts, fortunately without having to do too much actual work, so there's no sweating and no rubbing, and by the end of my shift, it's smudgy and I feel like I look like a raccoon. Good value though.

Great gel liner! You don’t need to spend more money on other brands! This is smooth, long lasting and opaque! It will smudge if you smudge it right away but after letting it dry it stays!

I picked up the essence Stay & Play Gel Eyeliner on a whim, and it’s honestly one of the best budget eyeliners I’ve tried. It’s super soft, glides on easily, and stays in place most of the day. Pros: Smooth Application: The gel formula is creamy and easy to apply—no tugging or skipping. Great Pigment: Comes out bold and rich, even in one swipe. Affordable: At this price, it’s a steal—feels like a product twice the cost. Waterline Friendly: Gentle enough to use on the waterline without irritation. Decent Staying Power: Holds up well through most of the day without major smudging. Cons: Needs Sharpening: It’s not a twist-up, so you’ll need a sharpener to keep the tip precise. Can Smudge on Oily Skin: If you have very oily lids, it may fade or smudge after a few hours. Not Waterproof: It’s long-lasting, but not completely waterproof—will fade with heavy sweating or rubbing. Final Thoughts: If you're looking for an eyeliner that’s soft, pigmented, and affordable, this one delivers. It’s perfect for everyday use and easy to apply, especially if you’re in a rush. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a smooth gel liner without spending a fortune.

Amazing and lasts forever, also doesn't melts all day!

لون طبيعي و بيدي وسع للعين

I like the colour but every time I wear it, it burns my eyes

Like the color a lot, however mine was recieved broken at the end. The color went on nicely however if you have teary eyes does not apply well, you will end up using a lot.
