The color is much darker than what was shown in the photos. It’s not what I expected at all and doesn’t suit the look I was going for. Really disappointed with the mismatch and won’t be repurchasing.
Love On It!

Good liner. Not transfer-proof, but stays on pretty well throughout the day (photo is 8hr wear after eating, drinking). Colors are pretty spot on in regards to looking natural and blending with different products in different lip combos. Product is easy to apply and color is pretty darn pigmented so it is easy to overdo if not paying attention. However, it is possible to blur or blend out before it completely sets. After that, it is on! Really like, will purchase other colors!
Terrible operation

Love the lifter lip series! Glides on easy and is long wearing! I'm a former Clinique employee and would say this stands up to the more expensive brands! I've bought several colors. The only small draw back is you have to manually sharpen it.

Product itself is fabulous. Issue with getting additional product to twist up.
1 reply from Consumer Care Center team - 1 month ago
Hi there! We appreciate you reaching out regarding our Lifter Liner. We are so happy to hear you are enjoying this product! Despite the plastic-coated appearance of the liner, it can be sharpened with any cosmetic sharpener. For best results, turn the pencil gently 3 or 4 times, being careful not to apply excess pressure. After sharpening, remove all shavings from the blade edge. For the most precise definition, we suggest using our Expert Tools Pencil Sharpener! We hope you see great results.

My quest for the perfect 'my lips, but better' lip liner ended with Maybelline's Lifter Liner in Line Leader. I've tried over 80 pinky-neutral shades, and this one surpasses them all. It creates a natural, plumped look, perfect for subtle overlining. The application is flawless – smooth, comfortable, and long-lasting. Other liners had nice shades, but none matched Line Leader's performance. I'm a loyal repurchaser, always buying backups, because this is my makeup essential. Thank you, Maybelline!
good!!

Love the color options and how creamy it is, but like other reviews I'm struggling with sharpening it. I have read your other replies about this topic but still not able to sharpen it! My new sharpener totally broke the plastic end that's around the product! I need a video tutorial! I have looked on social media for tips but that hasn't helped me either!

I can’t get it to advance in the pencil. This is the 2nd one. Took 1st one back for the same reason.

Hello there. Despite the plastic-coated appearance of the Lifter Liner Lip Liner Makeup with Hyaluronic Acid, it can be sharpened with a cosmetic sharpener. For best results, turn the pencil gently in the sharpener 3 or 4 times, being careful not to apply excess pressure. After sharpening, remove all shavings from the blade edge. Your sharpener should be replaced whenever the blade has dulled and is no longer giving the expected results. We hope this information helps! We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Perfect color and application process. However, it's not worth the hassle trying to sharpen it. It's silly to expect us to have a new sharpener or use a special technique when it comes to this one specific lip liner. As a test I sharpened my NYX lip liner without issues. It was almost a perfect product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Maybelline Lifter Lip Liner is a fantastic addition to the Lifter line, offering a creamy, long-lasting formula that glides effortlessly on the lips. It’s perfect for defining and enhancing the lips with its smooth, non-drying texture that makes application easy.
Beautiful Wear. Impossible to sharpen.

I thought this was going to my favorite lip liner every. Wears beautifully, but it is impossible to sharpen. I've wasted a lot of product, and can't get a point on it.
1 reply from Consumer Care Center team - 3 months ago
Hi KJ98! Thanks for reaching out and sharing your experience with our Lifter Liner Lip Liner Makeup with Hyaluronic Acid. Feedback from our consumers is very important to us and helps us improve all of our products. This new generation of liners provides great color payoff but needs a gentle touch and a sharp blade to sharpen successfully. For best results, insert the pencil into the sharpener no more than 1/4 of an inch. If you push the pencil too far into the sharpener, the blade will grab too much and become difficult to sharpen. The goal is to shave off the resin in a thin curl to reveal more liner. The pencil should be sharpened frequently so that 3 or 4 gentle turns are sufficient to achieve the desired result. There's a bit of a learning curve but you'll master it in no time. A new sharpener with a fresh blade can make a big difference.
Love this liner!!
