Julep When Pencil Met Gel Longwear Sharpenable Eyeliner Pencil — 17 Smoky Plum, Waterproof Transfer‑Resistant

Julep's When Pencil Met Gel is a sharpenable, multi-use longwear eyeliner pencil in 17 Smoky Plum that glides on creamy, sets waterproof, and resists transfer for all-day definition.

This richly pigmented eyeliner combines the easy control of a traditional pencil with the creamy glide and staying power of a gel formula. Designed for precision and versatility, the 17 Smoky Plum shade delivers a deep, muted plum tone that enhances brown, hazel, and green eyes while offering matte depth with subtle complexity. The pencil sharpens to a fine point for crisp lines and smudges out smoothly for smoky effects, making it a practical tool for everyday looks and evening intensity.

How will this pencil perform through a long day or night?

The formula is waterproof and engineered to set quickly into a transfer-resistant finish that holds up to daily activity. You can expect extended wear without obvious fading or moving, so touch-ups are infrequent.

• Waterproof gel formula that sets to a stay-put finish
• Marketed to last up to 10 hours without smudging or transferring
• Quick-setting to minimize transfer onto lids or under-eye areas
• Suitable for all-day events, travel, or humid conditions

Can I use this on the waterline and for different eye looks?

Yes—its creamy, tug-free texture makes it suitable for precise waterline application as well as smudged or defined styles. It’s versatile enough to draw ultra-thin lines, tightline, or blend into a smoky finish.

• Sharpens to a fine tip for crisp liner work
• Smudges easily before set for smoky looks
• Multi-use: lining, tightlining, and softening along lash lines
• Ophthalmologist-tested and formulated to be gentle for sensitive eyes

What kind of finish and color payoff does 17 Smoky Plum deliver?

17 Smoky Plum offers rich, opaque color with a subdued plum tone that leans slightly muted rather than bright. The finish sits between matte and softly satiny, providing depth without obvious shimmer.

• High pigment payoff for visible color in a single pass
• Muted plum hue that complements many skin tones and eye colors
• Finish suitable for both daytime subtlety and dramatic evening looks
• Available in matte and shimmer family finishes across the range

How easy is the application and maintenance?

The creamy gel texture minimizes pulling, making application smooth and controlled, even for delicate lids. Because it’s sharpenable, you can maintain a precise edge for detailed work and control line thickness by sharpening as needed.

• Creamy, tug-free formula for comfortable application
• Sharpenable design for precise, maintained points
• Requires minimal reapplication thanks to set formula
• Works well with brushes or smudgers for blended looks
