Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner - Review, Photos & Swatches

For years I've been faithful to my MAC Blacktrack Fluidline. I'm still an avid user of that product but I wanted to branch out and use something for everyday use that wouldn't break the bank on a regular basis. I've seen the Maybelline gel liner a few times at my local drugstores but I never considered purchasing it. So in a way you can say that I purchased this on a whim. And to be honest, I don't regret purchasing it at all! For the most part, it did a really good job at staying on my eyes. I do like to pull off the winged eyeliner and I did notice a little bit of fading in the wing but then again, what eyeliner doesn't eventually fade over time?

PROS:
→ Inexpensive
→ Appears very black which I like since some eyeliners that say black come off as a charcoal color.
→ The brush that comes with it actually works really well
→ More product in the pot than MAC Fluidline
→ Color pay is a definite dupe to MAC Blacktrack Fluidline
→ Waterproof

CONS:
→ Availability. I was really lucky to find this since they're always out of stock.
→ Slight smudging
→ Doesn't really last 24 hours as it states

Can you tell which product is Maybelline and which is MAC?
