Well this one will be quick one, I promise. Short, crisp and helpful.
I was in a lifestyle store and had some extra time in hand so decided to check out the new launches at the Maybelline counter. The guy at the counter showed me the lasting drama gel pencils. I was not much interested for another gel pencil but O..M..G .. the moment he swatched the colors I was like..😃😃😃😃😃😃... He was sweet enough to swatch all the colors. I chose the blue(lustrous sapphire) and the copper(striking copper) one. I never had a copper eye pencil, so decided to try it.

Price : These pencils retail for 499 INR each.
Packaging : It has a normal pencil packaging which needs to be sharpened every time. This was the only bummer.But while applying I actually appreciated the fact that it was not a twist up pencil else the tip goes blunt in a few days and you don't get a precise application.
Pigmentation : Pigmentation is AMAZING like aaa..maaaaze..ingggggg 👌👌👌👌👌👌. No tugging no pulling super smooth application. And once applied it doesn't move anywhere..like for 7 to 8 hrs. After 8 hrs the colors fade a tad bit, just a tiny bit but NO smudging at all. It stays in the waterline as well without smudging. Which is a BIG thing. But I prefer not to apply in waterline as its difficult to remove from waterline.

Random thought: Kinda regretting not picking up the brown shade though,maybe next time. I have a feeling as if this was the gel pencil I always waited for in my life.
