FAQs
Is the Clinique High Impact Gel Tech Eyeliner safe for sensitive eyes?
Yes, this eyeliner is ophthalmologist and dermatologist-tested and formulated to be safe for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.
Can I use this eyeliner on my waterline?
Absolutely. It is specifically designed and tested to be safe for use on the waterline, providing 12 hours of wear in this area.
How long does the eyeliner last once applied?
The Clinique High Impact Gel Tech Eyeliner offers up to 24 hours of wear on the eyelids and 12 hours on the waterline.
Is this eyeliner waterproof?
It is water-resistant and transfer-free, meaning it withstands water and resists smudging, providing reliable wear.
What is the best way to remove this long-wearing eyeliner?
Due to its long-lasting and water-resistant properties, we recommend using an oil-based or bi-phase eye makeup remover for effective and gentle removal.
Does this eyeliner require sharpening?
Yes, as a gel eyeliner pencil, it requires a cosmetic sharpener to maintain a fine, precise tip for application.
What is the 'Black Honey' shade like?
While the product line aims for the 'most intense black', the 'Black Honey' shade name suggests a very deep, rich hue which might have subtle undertones. For a true jet black, you might want to compare with other 'intense black' shades in the range (Info needed: confirm specific undertones of 'Black Honey' if any).
Troubleshooting
Eyeliner not gliding smoothly or color appears patchy.
Ensure your eyelid is clean and dry. If the tip feels stiff, try warming it slightly on the back of your hand before application. Ensure the pencil is sharpened to a fine point.
Difficulty achieving a sharp, precise line.
Use a sharpener to get a fresh, fine point. You can also use a small, angled brush to clean up any edges immediately after application or to extend a precise wing.
Eyeliner is hard to remove.
Due to its water-resistant and long-wearing properties, this eyeliner is best removed with an oil-based eye makeup remover or a bi-phase remover. Apply the remover to a cotton pad, press gently over the eye for a few seconds, then wipe away without harsh rubbing.
Eyeliner smudges or transfers despite claims.
Allow the liner to set for a few seconds after application before blinking excessively. If you have oily eyelids, consider using an eyelid primer beforehand or setting the liner with a small amount of dark eyeshadow of a similar shade.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & Application
- Prep: Ensure your eyelids are clean and dry. For extended wear, a thin layer of eyeshadow primer can be applied.
- Application: Gently glide the pencil along your lash line or waterline. For a finer line, ensure the pencil is sharpened. For a softer look, you can smudge it immediately after application before it sets.

Care

- Hygiene: To maintain product integrity and prevent eye irritation, avoid sharing your eyeliner and cap it tightly after each use.
