Inglot AMC Eyeliner Gel #90 review and photos.
Inglot AMC Eyeliner Gel #90.
There are very few things that can be labeled as “must haves” in my makeup collection. In a market filled with an abundance of brands and formulations, consumer attention is easily swayed. However, if age and a dismal economy has taught me anything, one should stick to what works. Inglot AMC Eyeliner Gel ($12 US/5.5g) is one of the few items in my arsenal, that performs spectacularly, never lets me down and keeps me coming back for more.
Highly pigmented dark matte brown formula.
Incredibly smooth and even texture.
All day wear, if worn as a traditional gel liner on the upper lash line and upper waterline.
Lives ups to the “waterproof” claim. This stuff does not budge.
Pairs well with Billy B #11 Eyebrow Brush (here) for tight lining.
Inglot #90 dark brown color is less harsh than black for those who want a more subtle, yet noticeable look.
Lasting power on the lower waterline is 5-6 hours depending on how watery eyes become during the day.
Can be used as an eyeshadow base within the first 8 months.
Comes in 22 pigmented shades.
Starts to dry-out around the eighth month of use, despite storing the container upside down. A new pot is needed every year (on my third one).
Acrylic container does not keep moisture at bay as well as a glass container.
When the formula starts to dry out, the texture becomes tacky to the touch.
Immediate cleaning of your eye brush is recommended. Inglot’s formula dries in 60 second and if left uncleaned, the brush’s bristles become hard to the touch. I use a dual action makeup remover to clean my brush after every use.
My brand new pot seems to have been stored on one side, thus resulting in the gel settling on its side. This minor superficial defect did not compromise the formula in the least.
Inglot AMC Eyeliner Gel #90 ingredient list.
Bobbi Brown Chocolate Shimmer Ink, Inglot Eyeliner Gel #90, L’Oreal Infallible in #174 Bronze, Physicians Formula 2-in-1 Eyeliner Deep Brown.
Bobbi Brown Chocolate Shimmer Ink lasts well throughout the day, but Inglot truly does not budge. BBCSI makes a great eyeshadow color. BB Espresso Ink (I do not own this color) would probably be closest in color to Inglot #90.
L’Oreal Infallible in #174 Bronze goes on smoothly and the color is absolutely beautiful; however, this formula does not dry down completely.
Physicians Formula Deep Brown is the closest in color (not in formula) to Inglot, but the lasting power does not come anywhere close to that of Inglot Eyeliner Gel.
Billy B Beauty Eyebrow Brush #11.
Estee Lauder Eyeliner/Brow Brush #20.
Laura Mercier Angled Eye Liner Brush.
Billy B Beauty Brush #11 is intended for eyebrow color placement. I find this brush indispensable for tight lining (upper water line). The bristles are firm (but not too firm), dense, and short–giving me complete control over color placement.
Estee Lauder Eyeliner/Brow Brush #20 is an angled brush that makes upper lash line eyeliner application a breeze. Very similar to MAC 266.
Laura Mercier Angled Eye Liner Brush gives me the utmost control for upper lash line gel liner application. The shorter handle is brilliant for people who are near-sighted and need to get close to their mirrors for makeup application.
Inglot AMC Eyeliner Gel #90 used on the upper lash line and on the upper and lower water lines.

Makeup would tell you Inglot AMC Eyeliner Gel #90 is an everyday staple that I simply will not go without. The price, amount offered, color selection and paraben and mineral oil free formula, make this liner a winner in my book. Best of all, beautylish.com carries the enter Inglot Cosmetics line, along with Billy B Beauty and Wayne Goss–absolute cosmetic nirvana! Be well and stay safe.
