Clinique Quickliner Eyeliner Pencil — Slate, Twist-Up Water-Resistant with Built-In Smudge Tip, Safe for Sensitive Eyes

Clinique Quickliner For Eyes is a twist-up, no-sharpen automatic eyeliner that glides on for long-wearing, water- and smudge-resistant definition. Clinique’s Quickliner For Eyes in Slate is designed to make precise eye definition fast and fuss-free. The creamy, buildable formula applies smoothly from the barrel and includes a built-in smudge tip for softening or smoking out the line. Ophthalmologist-tested and fragrance-free, it’s formulated with sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers in mind while offering enough working time to blend before it sets.

How quickly does Quickliner set and how much time do I have to blend?

The liner gives you about a minute to soften or smudge the line before the formula establishes its long-wearing finish. That short window lets you create crisp edges or blended, smoky transitions depending on the look you want.

• Approximately 60 seconds of blendable time before setting
• Built-in smudge tip on the opposite end for quick blending
• Twist-up design keeps application consistent—no sharpening required

Is Clinique Quickliner water resistant and will it smudge during the day?

The formula is engineered to resist water, transfer and smudging once it sets, so daily wear holds up through normal humidity and light moisture. It still removes easily with a makeup remover at the end of the day.

• Water-resistant and transfer-resistant finish for durable wear
• Smudge-resistant properties reduce midday migration
• Removes with standard eye makeup remover—no harsh scrubbing needed

How do I use the pencil to get both precise lines and a smoky effect?

The automatic pencil tip creates clean, controlled strokes for tightlining or winged definition; flip to the built-in smudger to diffuse harsh edges. Layering and gentle smudging within the blending window lets you move from sharp to soft looks without switching products.

• Use the fine tip for thin, close-to-lash lines or detailed wings
• Flip to the smudge tip to soften the line and create smokier looks
• Apply in short strokes and blend within 60 seconds for best results

Is this safe for sensitive eyes and people who wear contact lenses?

Yes — Clinique formulates Quickliner with eye safety in mind. The product is ophthalmologist-tested, allergy-tested and 100% fragrance-free, reducing common irritants while delivering color payoff.

• Ophthalmologist-tested and allergy-tested formulation
• Fragrance-free and suitable for many sensitive-eye wearers
• Designed to be safe for contact lens wearers when used as directed
