Bourjois Mega Liner Felt-Tip Extra Large 24hr Eyeliner Review

I have got quite an oily skin and so most eyeliners and kajals smudge and bleed within 2-3 hours. After my wedding was fixed, I tried and tested about 5 eyeliners because I didn’t want panda eyes on my wedding day. This was part of one such experiment.

My Experience with Bourjois Mega Liner Felt-Tip Extra Large 24hr Eyeliner:

I have always had a love for felt tip liners because of the control they give. On the downside, they usually aren’t that pigmented for the same reason that during our childhood, sketch pens used to not give their full colors if stored randomly in some corner. They have to be stored upside down so that the pigment can seep into the nib. This also has that problem for obvious reasons but the pigmentation is gorgeous. It is a really deep black colour which is not at all shiny or glossy.

The tip is slanted to be able to draw both thick and thin lines but that makes it a little difficult to draw a uniformly thick line which is real smooth like we all like. The angled tip is designed to enable easy alteration of the thickness of the line without having to draw on the line first, and then colour it in. So, it is created keeping in mind winged liners only and not the standard eye lining. More than a felt tip, it looks like a chunky highlighter pen.

Now about the staying power – well I haven’t tried wearing it for a full 24 hours! But yes, it is quite good. It doesn’t fade, but it smudges a little. The horrible part comes if I sweat or my eye comes in contact with water (or tears :-P. not suitable for weddings *shakes head*.) and I happen to rub it even slightly. So, it is water resistant but not water proof at all.

It immediately bleeds and I look like a watercolor painting *straight face*. I prefer eyeliners flaking off to this scenario! This is highly embarrassing.

  1. Jomol, do you realise that as days pass by, we are discovering so many things in common?!!
    My HG eyeliner is L’Oreal Super Liner Gel Eyeliner. Amazing pigmentation and remarkably smudge free considering that I get panda eyes with almost every kajal.
    In liquid liners my favourite is L’Oreal Super Liner.
    OMG. I just realised that they are both from L’Oreal’s same line – Super Liner! I hereby proclaim L’Oreal Super Liner as The oily skin’s HG eye makeup line 😛

    1. Hey Anjana, oily eyelids here too 😛
      the L’oreal superline. . .you’re talking about the superliner classic (the golden one) or the superliner luminizer?
