Maybelline Tattoo Liner Gel Pencil - Galactic Cobalt

The product description highlights 'long lasting wear' and 'intense color,' suggesting good durability. However, specific claims of 'waterproof' are not provided. For best results, avoid excessive water exposure.

Due to its long-lasting formula, we recommend using a dedicated oil-based eye makeup remover or a micellar water solution specifically formulated for waterproof or long-wear makeup. Gently hold a soaked cotton pad over your eyelid for a few seconds before wiping away.

You should use a standard cosmetic pencil sharpener designed for makeup pencils. Using a sharpener with a fresh blade will help ensure a clean cut and prevent product waste or tip breakage.

The Galatic Cobalt shade is a vibrant, striking blue, making it less ideal for a natural, 'no-makeup' look. It's best suited for creating bold statements, enhancing your eye color, or adding a pop of unique color to your makeup.

The Maybelline Tattoo Liner Gel Pencil is formulated for 'long lasting wear,' suggesting it will stay vibrant and defined throughout the day or evening under normal conditions. Individual wear time may vary based on skin type and environmental factors.

'Galatic Cobalt' refers to a rich, deep blue shade with a vibrant, almost electric undertone, evoking the vastness and color of space. It's designed to be a standout color for eye definition.

Ensure the tip is freshly sharpened for optimal color payoff. Apply gentle, even pressure, or try warming the tip slightly on the back of your hand before application to soften the gel.

Make sure your eyelid skin is clean and moisturized, or prepped with a primer. The gel may have dried slightly; try sharpening the tip to reveal fresh product. Applying a small amount of eye cream a few minutes prior can also help with glide.

Allow the liner a few moments to set completely after application. Avoid touching your eyes immediately. For extra smudge resistance, you can lightly dust a translucent setting powder over the liner, if compatible with your look.

This often occurs if the pencil is too cold or if the sharpener is dull. Store the pencil at room temperature. Use a high-quality, sharp cosmetic pencil sharpener, and sharpen gently with a twisting motion rather than pressing hard.

Ensure the cap is always securely placed after each use to prevent air exposure. If it feels dry, try sharpening it to expose a fresh layer of the gel. Storing it in a slightly warmer environment (but not hot) might also help.
