Review: Fanny Serrano Long Wear Gel Liner

I wanted to get my hands on this gel eyeliner for a long time now but only decided to buy it (finally!) I was undecided between this one and the Maybelline Lasting Drama Gel Liner until I read on reviews that the Maybelline dries out pretty quickly. Plus that it's cheaper (P225 vs. P449) :D



List of ingredients...



Love that it has extra protective seal

that's a lot of product... 5 grams! 

I love the packaging because the pot looks so neat and the cap closes very well. The liner is really easy to work with because the product just glides on smoothly. I have used a cream eyeliner before but it was harder to work with. I didn't like using eyeliner before because it's too strong for me but I'm kinda into it now :D.


Fanny Serrano Long Wear Gel Liner Swatch





This is my first gel eyeliner and I have to say that the application was not a pain at all. I thought I was going to practice some more to have get better control but this liner is just very easy to apply. I love the consistency of the liner and how pigmented it is.The staying power is good and it's easy to remove but it smudges even if I use a primer. I used a black eyeshadow to set it the second time and it helped minimize the smudging. A good brush can definitely make a difference when applying this gel liner so I got the angled brush from Fanny Serrano as well. It has fine and soft bristles and long handle which really helped achieve the line I want to create. 




Overall this gel liner is worth the money. A little goes a long way and it will take a long time before I use up the whole pot. I really like it and I will surely repurchase if I need it or maybe get the brown one later on :D.

My verdict: 4.5 STARS! I definitely recommend this product to those who want a good gel liner. It's affordable and works really well.

  3. I love the in2it gel liner..it doesn't smudge at all..but what I don't like about it is that it's in a pencil form..how I wish it was the same as the Fanny Serrano one where the product is in a small container :)

  4. Oh yeah I remember seeing that gel liner in pencil form. Yeah it was more pricey than FS gel liner. I got the ELF cream liner too and will be posting a review soon :)
