Illamasqua Precision Gel eyeliner - Infinity

 

I remember back in the day when I first got into watching youtube videos and reading blogs how much this product was raved about; - the Illamasqua Precision Gel eyeliner* of course.

The gel eyeliner from Illamasqua is definitely a product I would class as being ‘worth the hype’. 

I have never used a gel eyeliner before purely because I thought they took quite some skill to apply, and yes I am a die hard liquid liner kinda gal too. Thankfully though and to my surprise may I add this gel eyeliner applied very easily. The texture of the gel is just the right consistency, this gives you better control over how much you are applying. I guess that’s why precision is in the name.

I have been testing the Illamasqua Gel eyeliner in Infinity for quite a few weeks now and absolutely love it. I found the  Real Techniques Fine liner brush (£6.99) works perfectly alongside it. The Illamasqua gel liner comes in a 5g pot which will last you a good while. Compared to cheaper brands the Illamasqua gel eyeliner won’t dry up as quick. You can just feel the quality throughout the whole product.

I love the pigmentation of this gel liner, it really is the blackest of blacks. Which of course is perfect for a signature cat eye look or even a dramatic night time look. I sometimes find that liquid liner flakes off but didn’t have that problem with the gel liner, if anything I needed to use a good eye makeup remover to take it off as it stays on so good.

Overall I love this gel eyeliner, at £18 it is a high end beauty product but for the quality it is totally worth it. 

Do let me know if you have tried this eyeliner or what you think of it? All I need now is for Illamasqua to come out with a navy and olive green one and then I’ll be even happier. :)
