FAQs

How long does MAKE UP FOR EVER Aqua Resist Colour Ink last?

This eyeliner is formulated for up to 24 hours of waterproof, smudge-proof, and sweat-proof wear.

Is the "Matte Charcoal" shade a true black?

No, "Matte Charcoal" is a deep, sophisticated matte grey, offering a softer alternative to a true black liner.

How do I achieve a very fine line with this eyeliner?

Use the very tip of the tapered applicator, applying minimal pressure. The precision tip is designed to create ultra-fine lines for detailed looks.

What is 'non-stop ink flow technology'?

This technology ensures a consistent and continuous delivery of pigment from the pen to your eyelid, preventing skipping or uneven lines during application.

Can I use this eyeliner over eyeshadow?

Yes, it can be applied over eyeshadow. For best results and longevity, ensure your eyeshadow is fully set and not too emollient, and apply the liner to a clean, dry area if possible.

What kind of makeup remover should I use?

You should use an oil-based or bi-phase waterproof makeup remover to effectively dissolve and remove this long-lasting formula.

Do I need to shake the pen before use?

Yes, gently shaking the pen before each use helps to ensure the ink is well-mixed and saturated in the tip for optimal flow and pigment delivery.

Troubleshooting

Eyeliner tip feels dry or ink isn't flowing smoothly.

Shake the pen vigorously with the cap on. If the issue persists, gently press the tip onto the back of your hand a few times to encourage ink flow. Ensure the cap is always securely replaced after use.

Eyeliner is skipping or not applying an even line.

This often happens on oily lids or if there's residual product. Ensure your eyelids are clean and dry before application. Consider using an eyeshadow primer. Also, ensure you've shaken the pen adequately to activate the non-stop ink flow.

Eyeliner smudges despite being waterproof.

Ensure you allow sufficient time for the eyeliner to fully dry and set after application (a few seconds). If applied over a particularly emollient or oily eyeshadow, it may not adhere as effectively. Try applying directly to a clean, primed lid.

Difficulty removing the eyeliner.

Due to its 24-hour waterproof formula, standard cleansers may not be enough. Use an oil-based or bi-phase makeup remover specifically designed for waterproof makeup. Hold a soaked cotton pad on the area for 10-15 seconds before gently wiping away.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

Upon first use or if the pen has been stored for a while, gently shake the eyeliner pen with the cap on to ensure the ink is flowing. You might need to gently press the tip onto the back of your hand a few times to get the ink started.

Compatibility

This liquid eyeliner is designed to be compatible with most eye makeup products. It layers well over eyeshadows and can be paired with mascara and other eye products. Due to its long-wearing and waterproof nature, it's particularly effective when used with other long-lasting or waterproof products to maintain overall makeup integrity. Always apply to clean, dry skin for optimal adhesion and wear.

Product Care

  • Storage: Store your Aqua Resist Colour Ink horizontally or tip-down to prevent the tip from drying out and ensure consistent ink flow.
  • Cap Securely: Always replace the cap tightly after each use. An unsecured cap can lead to the tip drying out, affecting application and longevity.
  • Cleaning the Tip: If the tip accumulates eyeshadow or other residue, gently wipe it clean with a damp, lint-free cloth. Do not use oil-based cleansers on the tip itself as it could clog the ink flow.
  • Removal: To effectively remove this waterproof eyeliner, use an oil-based or bi-phase waterproof makeup remover. Apply the remover to a cotton pad, press gently over the closed eyelid for a few seconds to dissolve the product, then swipe gently.
