This stuff is amazing! I love the thin brush and simple shape for easy storage. This really helps make my liners last. I also like to make liquid liners out of eyeshadows with this. So far, this is the best makeup sealant I have tried.

Love it, love it, love it. I had originally purchased Benefit's She-Laq, but it leaked all over my makeup bag (including my makeup!) and sealed itself shut. I went to Sephora and asked the salesperson there what would be like She-Laq but without the sucky packaging, and he recommended this. I have to say, it's wonderful! I love the slim little brush (unlike She-Laq's thick one that smeared crap all over my eyelid), and best of all, the bottle has never leaked once, nor has it sealed itself shut. I'm pretty tough on my travel makeup bag, when I go home for the weekend from school I usually just throw it on top of my makeup bag, so this has been shaken up quite a bit and is still in perfect condition. It is so worth it to buy it, my eyeliner will not budge when wearing it, and even though it's so tiny it is going to take me forever to use it all up. It dries faster than the She-Laq did, and doesn't leave my eyeliner all stiff and shiny. Go to Sephora and buy some! Now! EDIT: Are they discontinuing this? The whole brand is half off at Sephora.com right now and this is out of stock. Say it isn't so!

This is a great product but there are so many similiar products out there that I cant justify the price. This retails for betweeen $18 and $20 depending on old packaging or the new updated one. Its a waterproof sealant that keeps liner on all day without smudging or fading. Works great. The brush from this has a thin soft brush. I wouldnt repurchase this because I prefer the TooFaced Liquifye eye brush or using my own brush with the PD Transformer. Smashbox also has one as does Laura Geller and Benefit. All are essentially the same product but in different packaging. Product works great.

Um. My eyeliner was still on and going strong after: applying in the afternoon, going to dinner, bar, another bar, karaoking, going to sleep on a friends couch, waking up next day with drool on face & hair matted to my head, running a couple hours of errands (hair still matted to head), and finally arriving home at 3pm. I had to scrub this off my eyeballs (note: it comes off a little more easily with cleansing oil). Downsides are as follows: yes, the line does move slightly (whats that all about?) &, obviously, it can't be used for tightlining; so, life's not perfect & neither is this. But Liner Last does what it claims, and my eyeliner is either all over my face or non-existant after a night on the town without it. I'll definitely buy again.

This eyeliner sealant did keep my gel eyeliner from smudging. While this product works, I'm planning on returning it because it slightly irritated my eyes (puffiness and itchiness). The clear product comes packaged just like a liquid liner and the brush makes it very easy to apply this product exactly where you want. When slid over gel and liquid liners, it keeps the line that you've drawn nearly intact, but you will have the eyeliner line you've drawn soften slightly and there will be some transfer of your eyeliner onto the brush. It really doesn't change the look of my already dark and tenacious Bobbi Brown gel eyeliner, but you can see some of the black residue on the brush, contaminating the product.

If you have tried every conceivable way to make your eyeliner last with no success, then you have to try this one. For reference I have tried UD Primer Potion, LM Eye Basics, Almay lasting concealer, visine, etc... I have just about given up on using eyeliners but this made all of my e/l last, be it pencil or gel. I like the tiny brush because it allows me to precisely apply the needed amount just on the eyeliner itself. I don't streak it across, I kinda pat the tiny brush along close to my lashes where the e/l is. Fortunately I found my HG eyeliners from NARS (the ones in the bottle) so I don't think I can ever use this up!

Love this stuff! Works fantastic, much better than BeneFit She-Laq. Took one lippie off though because if it gets in your eyes it does burn!

I <3 this. My Mommy bought it for me for xmas. I <3 it's gold tube, and the way it makes my liquid liner last until I want it off. I'm not sure how much it was bc it was a gift, but she bought it @ Sephora so it was probably a bit expensive. I will probably repurchase but I have a feeling this will last me a long time.

Oy My Gosh, This product is my new Holy Grail! I hate putting eyeliner on my top lid with eye shawdow b/c at the end of the day, it is always up on my browbone. Now that I apply this sealent over top, I don't have this problem anymore! I was trying to find an eyeliner that won't smude and couldn't, but this product does the trick! WONDERFUL! and no irritation.

I think this has reached HG status for me, and I haven't found them for most categories. My skin is so oily makeup normally just slides off, eye makeup and eyeliner being no exception, even if it's Revlon Colorstay Liquid Eyeliner or MAC Powerpoints (or Prestige's counterparts, for that matter). This product, however, makes a difference-- as long as I finesse it just so. I got this tip from someone off the makeup board but sadly, I cannot remember her name to give her credit: using a sponge-tip applicator, apply a thin layer of MoM to eyelids. After drying, apply a thin layer of Clinac O.C. After that dries, apply eye primer (right now I am using Paula Dorf's eye primer, which for this purpose at least, works better than W'n'W, MAC Paints, Lancome ColorDoses, Almay Bright Eyes, L'Oreal Decrease, Revlon Colorstay Concealer and Laura Mercier Concealer). Apply eye shadow and eyeliner as normal (so now the eyeliner is on eyeshadow, which is on my oil-absorbing layers). Apply the English Ideas to the eyeliner. Fan dry. Repeat for other eye.

This is literally the *only* thing that keeps eyeliner on my eyes, and only as long as it's on top of the MoM/Clinac O.C./eye primer sandwich--it doesn't work when I tried just eyeliner and the Liner Last for lining my lower lids. So even though it only works for my upper lids and it's a huge production, it's something that actually works, which is why I'd give this a five and buy it again. I haven't tried She-Laq yet, and I'm not sure I'm ever going to since this works for me.

You apply this clear liquid over your eyeliner to seal it. I think of it as hairspray for eye makeup. I'm 50 with skin oilier than any teenager that you ever met. My eyeliners, especially below the eye, smudge below my eyes in less than an hour. This product WORKS. I don't worry about it smudging my liner, I just run a quick swipe across my liner. I apply it in the morning and don't get smudges until after dinner; I swear. This is now on my "cannot live without" list.

This product is pretty good. It comes in a tube that looks like maybe a liquid liner or something. The cap has a tiny fine brush that is perfect for swiping over eyeliner. It sets pretty quickly, and it makes your eyemakeup smearproof. I really like the product, although the packaging looks kind of cheap- and the cap's rubber washer keeps coming off and sticking to the rim of the tube. I also wish that it came with more product, because this is one of those things that I would use everyday (I easily get racoony eyes if I don't) so I would wish that it came with more. But for 18 dollars a tube, thats not so bad, considering I've used this everyday for the last two months. When I run out of this I'm definitely buying this again.

great product. i'm an asian with small eyes (limited crease), but eyeliner loves nothing better than to smudge off below my eye giving me a raccoon look. but alas, being asian, liner is a must. this product helps keep the liner in its place, with an easy applicator brush and handy pocket-size tube. i didn't want to heft around a whole bottle (like benefit she-laq). definitely recommended. i'm a fan of english ideas (try their mega primer and mega mascara). *update: i tried she laq and was disappointed. sticking to this!

Liner Last is pretty good stuff. It makes my liner stay, especially when i use eye shadow as liner (which usually comes off quickly on me). It makes the shadow stay for a long time. On application, you do have to be careful not to mess up the line that you've made, but it has a really thin brush so it's not that bad.

I just recieved this and love it so far! I had She Lac from Benefit, and liked it, but this has a softer brush, and is easier for me to apply. I just dot it a long my eyeliner--covering all of it. She Lac's bottle developed a sticky white substance around the top of the bottle, and was hard for me to get the lid to screw on after a while. I would buy this again!!!

I bought this when my bottle of She Laq broke and I am so disappointed. For one, it messes up the line I drew - changes the color and blurs it a bit. Secondly, it does not preserve the liner like She Laq did. My liner doesn't smear, but fades away rather quickly. I am going back to She Laq immediately.

I have a love hate realtionship with this product. It does make your liner last longer, especially liquids, however, it can sorts of makes the liquid move. In the end you dont have the first line that you drew with the liner. I hope they make something better for an eyeliner sealant, but for now this is the product that does it for me. It's better than she laq by BeneFit.

This is like a clear eyeliner in a tube with brush enclosed. You apply over your eyeliner to seal it. It goes on wet, but dries in a minute or so. Unlike some sealants, it doesn't move or combine with your eyeliner as you apply it over. It worked very effectively for me for several hours. However it stung a bit on application (I have very sensitive eyes) so I wouldn't buy again.

Are you tired of having smeared, racoon-eyed or faded liner? No worries, English Idea's Liner Last is the perfect solution. It is available by Sephora (online) for 18 dollars. Liner last is applied on eyeliner after application. It comes in a liquid eyeliner bottle, the gel is clear and light. It dries invisibly on every kind of eyeliner. I've noticed that it made my eyeliner last for 6 hours PLUS! Everyone should definitely get this! It's so amazing!
