Quickliner™ For Eyes Intense Eyeliner

Clinique Quickliner™ For Eyes Intense is a twist-up pencil loaded with pigment, so a single pass already reads as a finished line. The other end carries a smudge tip, which turns the same pencil into a smoked-out liner without reaching for another tool.

What it actually does

• Delivers colour at full strength immediately. Clinique describes the shade as richly pigmented for instant intensity — no building up required.
• Glides rather than drags. Twist, draw, done; the formula is silky enough to lay colour down in one movement.
• Resists transfer once it sets. Give it about a minute and the line stops migrating onto the lid above.
• Doubles as a smudger. The tip at the opposite end blurs the same line into a soft, smoky edge.
• Ophthalmologist-tested. Clinique states it's safe for sensitive eyes and for people who wear contact lenses.
• No fragrance, no mineral oil, no parabens.

How to use

1. Twist up about an eighth of an inch — no more. The pencil doesn't retract, and Clinique designed it that way so the formula isn't left exposed to drying air.
2. Draw your line along the lash base.
3. Blur it with the smudge tool on the other end, as soft or as sharp as you like.
4. Wait roughly 60 seconds before blinking hard or applying anything over it — that's the setting time behind the transfer resistance.
5. Cap it firmly after use to keep the formula from drying out.
6. Take it off with an eye makeup remover at the end of the day.

Questions

Why can't I twist it back down?

It's deliberate. Clinique made the pencil non-retracting so the exposed formula never gets pushed back into the barrel, where air would dry it out. Wind up a sliver at a time — about an eighth of an inch.

Is it safe if I wear contact lenses?

Clinique says yes — it's ophthalmologist-tested and cleared for sensitive eyes and lens wearers.

Will it smudge onto my upper lid?

The formula is transfer-resistant, but it needs a moment to get there. Let the line sit for around a minute before you blink it closed or layer shadow over it.
