Maybelline Tattoo Studio Sharpenable Gel Pencil Waterproof

This gel pencil—called Tattoo Studio—combines a creamy glide with high-pigment payoff so you can draw crisp lines, smoky looks, or bold pops of color that last through the day and night. The waterproof, sebum-resistant formula is offered in matte and metallic finishes and is available in a wide range of shades, including this vivid Galactic Cobalt. Because it’s a traditional pencil that sharpens, you can maintain a precise tip for fine detail or a broader edge for smudged looks.

How long will the color stay fresh on my eyes?

The formula is engineered for extended wear—up to 36 hours under normal conditions—so it resists fading, smudging, and sebum breakdown. It’s intended to remain vibrant from morning routines through long days or events without frequent touch-ups.

• Up to 36 hours of color retention
• Resists smudging and fading
• Formulated to withstand oil/sebum on the lid
• Waterproof finish for humidity and light water exposure

How do I create precise lines or a smoky look with this pencil?

The pencil sharpens to a fine point for precise liner and can also be slightly softened or smudged before setting to create a smoked-out effect. Start tight at the lash line for definition, then build outward or smudge with a brush or fingertip for a softer finish.

• Sharpen for a crisp, hairline tip
• Apply close to the lash base for natural definition
• Smudge gently with a smudge brush or fingertip for a smoky line
• Layer for deeper intensity or metallic shine

Will this eyeliner work on sensitive eyes and how should I remove it?

While the pencil is formulated for durable wear, it’s still a cosmetic product and reactions vary by person. Remove it thoroughly each evening with a gentle makeup remover—micellar water is recommended for effective, low-irritation removal—and avoid applying directly to the inner eye or waterline if you are prone to sensitivity.

• Use micellar water or oil-based remover to dissolve pigment
• Gently wipe without rubbing the delicate eye area
• Avoid inner-eye application if you have known sensitivity
• Test patch first if you have extremely reactive skin

What finishes and looks can I create with Galactic Cobalt?

Galactic Cobalt is a vibrant blue with a metallic sheen that works for everything from subtle color accents to graphic lines and nighttime drama. Pair it with neutral shadows for a modern pop or with similarly bright shades for editorial and festival looks.

• Metallic shimmer for evening or editorial styles
• Bright accent along the lower lash line for daytime flair
• Layered under shadow to intensify color payoff
• Combined with black liner for high-contrast definition
