If anyone asked me what my favorite Korean K-beauty eyeliners are, I would say, “the Club Clio Gelpresso Eyeliners.” When it comes to eyeliners, I expect good quality ones to have good pigmentation and to be dark and opaque. I shouldn’t be able to see my skin underneath the eyeliner. Since the Club Clio Professional Gelpresso Eyeliners are one of my favorite Korean eyeliner products and have been for years now, they do meet all of my expectations and more. So, I am going to review these eyeliners for you today and show you how they look on the eyes with eyeshadow and without.

These eyeliners vary in price from $9 – $20 a piece, depending on where you buy them.

Club Clio has every eyeliner color you could possibly want in these eyeliners, from yellow, blue, green, orange, pink, red, black, brown, purple, to beige, so their selection is amazing. Of course, most people won’t wear yellow, pink, or orange eyeliner, but they will wear them as eyeshadow, so these eyeliners are multi-functional since they can be worn as both eyeliner and eyeshadow. Thus, these eyeliners can be worn alone or paired with eyeshadow.

The Club Clio Gelpresso Eyeliner formula is imported from Italy.

These Gelpresso Eyeliners are auto pencil liners, so you will not need to sharpen them 👍.

Club Clio says that their formula is soft, smudge-proof, and waterproof. I will put these claims to the test 👀.

Club Clio Gelpresso Eyeliner Swatches

I bought these eyeliners in the shades: No. 4 Dark Choco, No. 5 Star Purple, No. 7 Golden Black, & No. 8 Chic Navy

No. 4 Dark Choco

Although this eyeliner is called ‘Dark Choco’, it is actually not that dark; it is a lighter brown shade that is too light in color to really accentuate my eyes because of my brown tan skin, so I prefer to use this eyeliner as a lipstick 👄; as a lipstick, this eyeliner gives me a beautiful, pigmented brown lip color.

Club Clio Gelpresso No. 5 Star Purple Eyeliner

I love this purple eyeliner color; it has a lot of glitter it and it is dark enough to show up nicely on my brown tan skin.

Club Clio Gelpresso No. 7 Golden Black Eyeliner

I bought this eyeliner because it has a lot of glitter in it. I don’t have any other glitter black eyeliners like this one and I do not know many brands that make glitter black eyeliners. Furthermore, because of the glitter, I love using this eyeliner as an eyeshadow as well.

Club Clio Gelpresso No. 8 Chic Navy Eyeliner

This is a beautiful blue color. It looks metallic in some lightings because you can see different shades of blue in it; you can even see hints of purple, gray, and black in this shade.

These eyeliners are very pigmented, vivid, and beautiful in color! I do definitely prefer to wear these eyeliners with eyeshadow because I feel that they come out prettier and more appealing on the eyes.

When it comes to the formula, these eyeliners apply like butter and are very soft. These eyeliners don’t tug or pull on the eyes as you apply them. Be careful putting too much pressure on the eyeliner though because of how soft it is; it can break off if you apply too much pressure on the eyeliner while lining your eyes.

Are these eyeliners smudge-proof? Yes, they are. Once these eyeliners are on your eyes, they will set and won’t budge.

Are these eyeliners waterproof? Yes, they are. When I ran my finger over the eyeliner while it was still wet, it didn’t budge. Once the liner dried again, it also didn’t budge when I ran my finger over it again.

Final Thoughts

I love these eyeliners and they are definitely high-quality eyeliners. My eyes are very sensitive, but these eyeliners don’t bother my eyes. They are also comfortable to wear. I also love the formula of these eyeliner and how easily and smoothly they apply.

The Club Clio Gelpresso Eyeliners will also last years without drying out. Most eyeliners dry out in as little as a month to just a few weeks, so this is a huge benefit for these eyeliners. Given my experiences with these eyeliners, I feel that they do everything that the brand promises they do. I also feel that these eyeliners are some of the best eyeliners on the market since they are pigmented, truly smudge-proof, and waterproof. Thus, I do highly recommend these liners.

Lastly, the Clio Gelpresso eyeliners are much more expensive than herbal kajal liners, so I only wear them for special occasions, like bar or party events. I prefer kajal eyeliners for day-to-day wear since you get much more product with them and they are inexpensive. However, I do definitely suggest keeping a few of the Clio Gelpresso eyeliners on hand for those special occasions.
