Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner - Page 3

deja vu · ‎03-09-2010

I've never had good luck with it either, bought 3 colors at one time, not anymore...I do have good luck with MAC, love Dip Down Brown. It has lasted forever. I'm actually getting to the bottom and it's still fresh.

I did order the last BE - TSV...and if it ever gets here I'm curious to see how it will be.

I'd rather not purchase another if it can be helped.

Thank you for your post.

Have a great day!

They always dry out. I've made sure the lid is on tight, and it still dries out. The ONLY one that doesn't dry out is Clinique gel/cream. BUT...terrible news...my friend who's the manager at the Clinique counter said they are discontinuing it. It's such a great gel/cream and it never dries out.

I have found Tarte, MAC and BB all dry out no matter how tight the lid is on. Clinique is the best. They still have a few Clinique's out there so if you can find one, buy it.
Oh no! Clinique's really are great! Very creamy.
I know Future...it stinks. Sephora already has them off their website. I just found a black one on Nordstrom's site. I bet it is one of the last ones they have. I ordered it a few minutes ago.
I don't wear black, or else I'd buy 2!! I'm going to call around town and see if anyone has any. I loved the smoke grey and the black honey. I might even call to the town where my parents live -- mom could swing by and pick one up for me.

I love the black honey too Future. I have a full one left in black honey.

Someone said they used the graphite shimmer and it didn't dry out. I used that one for a long time and mine never dried out either. I usually use buy just one color and use it till it's gone as I like a light black or slate gray color.

Winamac is right.... the only one that lasts and lasts and doesn't dry out is Clinique. The problems is colors. I've written to Clinique many times to ask for a dark brown, but all they continue to sell is black and a redish brown. They say that those are their two best sellers. I would question that the reddish brown would outsell a darker more neutral brown. Clinique is #1 for me, as recommended by Win several years ago. Wish they would expand their selection however.

I quit. This one I have is the last I'll buy from her. I know all the tricks to rehydrate it but why should I have to use them. The quality is way down from what it was when Bobbie owned her company and I'm not wasting money on it anymore.

I'm bummed to hear about the Clinique liners. Black honey is a staple for me.

I have never been a fan of the BB gels. With the exception of one of the purples, all the other colors I have tried look identical on my eyes whether it's brown, black, gray, blue, etc. They all just look to be a varying shade of black on my eyes. Plus I had a few dry out as well.

Honestly if you want nice gel liners, try ELF. They have 8 different shades from basics like black, brown, copper, midnight blue to funkier shades like a golden and teal. They are $3.00. I buy mine at Target or directly from ELF.
