Cailyn Cosmetics Line-Fix Gel Eyeliner

I love bold eyeliner and sometimes on a busy morning all you need to do is wing your liner, slather on some gloss and you are good to go. Today I have a review on the Line-Fix gel eyeliner by Cailyn Cosmetics. This brand also sells a great variety of makeup for the face and lips.


I usually use liquid eyeliner because I hadn't found a gel liner that I loved until now! This gel is very easy to work with even if you are no expert with drawing a straight line across your lashes. The formula is very creamy and doesn't dry out immediately after application which gives you time to perfect and alter your line. It glides on velvety smooth and you don’t need much to create an intense, bold look.



I love the packaging because it conveniently comes with a built in brush that is hidden in the handle of the cover. For travel you don’t have to worry about packing a separate brush or forgetting to bring one with you. The box also has simple instructions for creating the perfect line.

“Once dry, the gel is smudge proof and water proof for 24 hours.” The fact that it doesn't smudge makes it wonderful for smokey looks and lining the bottom lashes which is something I avoid with most liquid liners. It is also highly concentrated and safe for sensitive eyes. Although ultra pigmented the liner does not have the same finish or inked effect as a liquid liner, I find it similar to a pencil finish with more color payoff. Compared to some of the liquid products I have used this gel creates a neater, straighter line which makes eye makeup look tidier. 

 I would recommend this product for those who are new to gel or liquid liner and need to practice with something simple. Even though the formula is waterproof it is easy to remove with makeup remover or a makeup wipe. I also like that the gel maintains it's consistency and doesn't dry out in the jar.

Color: Black

The brush has a sturdy pointed tip and works well for creating both thin and thick lines. It is recommended that you clean the brush after each use and I also like to smooth the bristles back into the original shape to maintain the point. This has become my go-to eyeliner when I don't have the time or patience to work with liquid products but still want a sharp line.


The liner is available in 13 other shades and retails for $21 each. You can find more information on the website by clicking HERE. I definitely think this liner is worth the price.

  3. OK...The built-in brush is way cool! So would you say it's worth $22? I just checked out their site, and it seems pretty reasonable for pricing. I'm going to have to get this and try it out. I'm sure my daughter will love it. Thanks for the awesome review!

  5. Interesting. I'm always craving to try liquid gel liners after reading posts like this, but I'm always too afraid that my technique will make me look like a racoon.

    Sincerely,

  7. This liner sounds a lot like my MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack! Super easy to use, glides on like a dream as well. I love that this one comes with a brush though, super handy!

  14. I've only lined my eyes nicely one time! My eyes tend to puff up when I try to wear eyeliner so I try to stay away from it. Maybe I just haven't found the right eyeliner. Maybe I should give a gel liner a try. I seems to go on a bit more flawlessly than what I use.
