Hey guys! I'm back with another review. For today it's going to be Bobbi Brown's Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in Denim Ink. I chose this color because I wanted something dark but not "too" dark like black ink. I was choosing between this and the purple one. I decided to get this because I have a similar purple liner by Urban Decay called Rockstar.
The problem with these gel liners is that they're not as "portable" as pencil liners. First, they're small but bulky. It takes a while to put them on because you have to be really precise and also you need a brush for this. So you need not only bring this small bottle but you also have to bring a liner. I prefer using this at home when I have enough time to prepare.
The brush that I use for this is from Bobbi Brown also. It's called the Ultra Fine Eyeliner Brush. My brother got it from me in Singapore but I believe it's also available locally.
I prefer using this brush more than others because it's really fine, the tip is precisely cut and it gets just enough product.
This product is really good and it rarely (because I do have oily lids) fades. It also doesn't melt which I like. I prefer it fading than melting because it looks horrible when it goes on my under eye area. Ekk!
I hope more colors would be available here in the Philippines because these are simply amazing!

Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in Black Ink
I recently got the Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in Black Ink because I've really wanted to do the whole eyeliner thing again and want it to be jet-black and super matte. When I was a beginner, I really didn't want to use gel liners, I preferred pencils back then. Now that I kind of got the hang of liners, I am more confident to use gel liners.
I tried to use different brushes for this but nothing works as good as the brush used to apply it at the counter. It's the Bobbi Brown Ultra Fine Eyeliner Brush expensive but I got it for free when my brother went to Singapore and got it for me!
I wasn't able to get a photo of it unused so here's how it looks like after around 5 uses, - looks like it takes a lot of product for one use, probably gets stuck in the brush.
Here's the photo when I used it, simple, sleek but very edgy.
You can use it as is or add eyeshadow for a more "full" or smokey look.
Only fallback on this one is it melts down after a while especially when you're sweaty or your eyes start tearing when for example you yawn. Not much but I can notice some of the product melting.
By the way, I believe only black and brown are available here in the Philippines but I've seen more colors online. Hope they send some more colors here in the Philippines.
