Cheap Thrill #2: Fanny Serrano's gel eyeliner in 'Black'

Ever since the advent of gel eyeliners 5 or 6 years ago, many other brands have jumped on the bandwagon. But unlike its lofty predecessors (MAC’s fluidline, which I have recently reviewed, and Bobbi Brown’s Long Wear gel eyeliners come to mind), many of the ‘me too’ versions lacked the stellar qualities of its progenitors. They either dried up too quickly, or dried too slowly (or simply did not set at all), or dragged upon application, or flaked incessantly during the day.
