- Hey! This homemade gel eyeliner is really pigmented, cheap and simple to make! It is also surprisingly long-lasting! The main ingredient activated charcoal has been used for many years for medicinal treatments, particularly in removing toxins and it has been deemed safe to use all over the body, so used with aloe vera and vitamin e oil this eyeliner recipe should be a lot safer than a lot of bought versions, as well as being free of suspicious chemicals and free of animal testing!
So i hope you enjoy this DIY eyeliner tutorial, and try it out!

I hope you enjoy this recipe!
You're so beautiful! Love your DIYs! TOTALLY making this when my maybelline one runs out! Lol xo
great diy! so helpful!
You are gorgeous
Would black eyeshadow work instead of the chalk
Can you make your intro more shorter?
U should do a makeup look on all the DIY makeup thinks u have made!!❤️
Oh yessss and hi it's been 4 years
@@seemasingh8305hi it’s been 5 years 😢
Thank you. I like that you used pure & sensible ingredients for your recipe rather than other videos where people just throw together a bunch of pre-existing cosmetics & pretend like they've invented something new. Also like that you did your research as there are too many people on YT giving bad & dangerous advice.
Quick tip to everyone if you cant fibd or use activated charcoal then get some raw almonds and roast them until they burn then just crush and voila
thank you!
South Asians (Aryveda), and Cleopatra have been doing that since ancient times.
It's polite to tell everyone where you got your idea from.
@@misbahailia3345 that comment was made 6 years ago. this gen is so soft it’s eyeliner no one cares
Lmao u can also do it with tortillas basically burn them and crush lmao
does it dry matte or does it stay liquidy?
Thank you soo soo much for this. I'm starting to get into makeup (I literally only own a nearly empty jar of lip gloss, which was the only cruelty-free cosmetic I could find). Since I live in Kenya, it can be really hard to find drugstore products that are cruelty free, but I'm so happy that I found this video and now your other videos on cosmetics. You're a true gem! x
Hi Ela, another fun video! I love your tips and tricks and making my own experiments with them. So I tried this and different recipes with it, I found your version was the most black for eyeliner. The issue was that it was a bit "grainy" even with more liquid and when it was not long lasting on my eyes, it basically dissapeared after a couple hours. I thought I would share! Best!
Wow I love this! The chemicals in eyeliners really irritate my eyes. I can't wait to try this!
very very cool!!!!!
thankyou so much I've been watching and trying to find someone who does a gel liner diy and also a swatch on the eye you have brains thankyou , you've earned a subscriber
Please please please make a video on your skin and makeup routine!! You always look so flawless
Hi! Loving all your recipes. Been using the green tea moisturizer for about a year now and I love it! I`m you interested to know what you use on your nails? Do you have them done or do them yourself and if so, any natural options? Thanks!
This has to be one of your best videos!
Omg this is amazing! please can you tell me what I can use to make this brown instead of black?
do you need vitamene E or is that just for moisturizing your skin?
Hi sister...We need the vitamin E to keep our gel eyeliner in a gel form bcz the aloe vera gel starts drying after some weeks ...so yeah it keeps the liner in a gel form and yeah it also moisturizes our skin ...💕💕
@@wardaatiq3452 is there any other oils we can use?
@@moumita9277 I have seen other recipes using cocunut or almond oil, so I think we can do, I will try actually!
You deserve so many more subscribers. You are my FAVORITE youtuber!!!
Mine is bethony mota. Howevs this one mint too and yea she does deserve more subs
Love this video! Your videos are all things I actually need which helps me out a lot! Do you think you could make a video on hangnails? They're so annoying. Much love.
Hey ***** am a big fan of yours. I have been watching your natural essential kit I was wandering please can you do a healthy nail serum video since the top layer of nail peels off when my nails aren't healthy so then I tender to bit my nails and they get sharp.
P.S. I love you and your videos
made a black and brown style of these, they're great and stay on while I'm out with no problem. Thanks for all your amazing videos I have tried quite a lot and you have inspired my vegetarian cooking.
Hey Ela! What can I use instead of Vitamin E oil? this vid was so helpful and ur AMAZING! :)
So helpful!! Thank you for making this video : ) I liked listening to your voice too very comforting narration.... ahhhhhh sweetness
Omg, I love LOVE your channel more with every single video :) you are doing such an incredible job, and for that thanking you!
Hi! I just found this channel and I love it! How long does the eyeliner last?
thx for the idea.....YOU ARE SO TALANTED.....just lov ur videos♥♥♥.....how do u come up with all these things......keep up the hard work.
this looks very good for your eye skin....whatever leads to less wrinkles!
Omg u literally can make anything on ur own!!!!! So amazing!!
Hi Ela, I just made this and it works; it is something that last the whole day. In order to make this I bought the Vitamin E oil, so I was hoping you could tell me what are some ways I could use this vitamin in a DIY project.
Love it!! What is it's lasting power?? Does it dry quick?? X
Hi! I've tried this recepie about two weeks ago and now I've found that the eyeliner gel has started to rot, or at least there is a mould now :( what have I done wrong? I have maybe added too little of the vitamin e because i havent had enough at time... Or are any specific way how to treat the gel during daily use? Thanks!
I love the recipe. Cost effective and mostly good ingredients. The Aloe Vera gell you linked has 3. Tetrasodium EDTA is a preservative that’s made from the known carcinogen, formaldehyde and sodium cyanide. (see how) It is also a penetration enhancer, meaning it breaks down the skin's protective barrier, going right into your bloodstream. Many companies trying to be "natural" will use Tetrasodium EDTA instead of parabens to preserve their products. In my opinion, Tetrasodium EDTA is just as bad. So I'll have to find a replacement for that ingredient. Thanks for making the video!
Caitlynn Caldwell Also, I suggest using plastic bowls and disposable gloves for an easy clean up. Charcoal gets EVERYWHERE, so beware.
+Caitlynn Caldwell Exactly! When I first saw this video, I searched up the aloe vera gel on Amazon and I saw that ingredient. I'm looking for alternatives, and yes, I've heard the charcoal can be a mess ^_^
I'd suggest getting organic aloe Vera
Wondering how long the staying power is and does it smudge or transfer?
was worried about the same thing, Most aloe gels are very toxic these day. I did find one organic brand at a holistic store once a few years ago, yet it needed refrigeration once open. I'll certainly keep my eyes out for another, though, this tutorial is wayyy too good not to try, I have very sensitive skin, so makeup has been my worst enemy, I have to now adays make my own, hahaha!
Your DIYs are SOOO good.
Thank you so much. I was trying to find a more natural make up for my sensitive eyes and make sure it was allergen free with not much luck when your video showed me i can simply make my own and no longer have to worry about what's in it. Awesome video
Wow! That was seriously such a simple diy. I'm starting to get into eyeliner more and I want to do natural products. This is going to be perfect. Thanks!!
I'd definitely try this, just wanted to know if it's waterproof & does it get dried out?
Your so creative😁 I love my diy roll on and can not wait to try this eyeliner 👍👍
I love your diy videos and your voice is so soothing! I love it very much! Keep being you!
Awesome how long does this last thanks alot 👍 😊
HI! thanks for the recipe! I made this but it didnt turn out so great! well it actually started growing fungi after like a few days and I freaked out! i dno maybe my aloe vera gel was too natural... Maybe I could use an alternative to aloe vera? any suggestions! I prefer oil based ingredients so they have longer shelf-lifes but unfortunately they dont stick as well as aloe vera and they smudge all over the place
Have you tried vegetable glycerin? I actually use it as an eyeshadow primer and it makes the eyeshadow stick pretty well!
+MollyMockingjay hey! Thanks! I think I'll give that a try, it's a good idea. But is it okay if it gets into eyes? Because I heard that you have to dilute it a lot before use or it'll have a drying affect
+Nikkie Yoland there's actually something called "artificial tears" that you use when your eyes are dried out or irritated and it contains glycerin but there are two types of glycerin which can either be derived from animals or vegetables (I use vegetable glycerin because I'm vegetarian) but I'm not sure which one is used in the eye drops.
Brilliant diy! I have really sensitive eyes. Would this irritate them?x
mine turned out flacky what do i need to add. it would crack and fall when it dried. can't seem to get right consistance
Hey Ela, Really love watching your videos and I do try most of your DIY.
I tried making the gel eyeliner but sorry to say it just dint work. The consistency just wasn't right. I followed the exact same recipe. Can you suggest how to make it better or give another recipe?
same! i was very disappointed
About the activated charcoal for those who don't have much cash to spend on buying that stuff: get a small bag of almonds. You can roast one almond until it turns to powder. Indians use ghee, which is clarified butter, mixed with that roasted almond to make eyeliner. Experiment for the consistency you think is best. And that eyeliner will be black like the heart of Sauron. Will take days to completely wash off.
Wow thats cool! May i ask how you always come up with all these DIY?
Yea i know
I love how it's cruelty free🙌🏻
Loved the recipe❤️💜
Love all of your diys!!! Your so gorgeous!😘🌸
Question, how do you do your winged eyeliner so perfect 🙊😍
do you use all your diy makeup products for your daily makeup or do you have store-bought products too?
You are such a sweet person! I love your videos & think you are very creative!
1:39 go to hear to get to the recipe
I want to know where do you get the little containers that you put all of your homemade products in? They are super cute.
I think she said that this one is from nail polish, but I get mine from a site called "abundanthealth4u" (sounds sketchy, but i swear it's awesome!) You can also get larger-sized containers from there, if you want to make your own foundation or face cream, and then they make glass bottles you can use for homemade cleaning supplies, if you're trying to get away from plastic and chemicals. Its all SUPER cheap, too.
Your BEAUTIFUL! and u have the most gorgeous eyes!!! New subbie😍❤️❤️❤️!!! Ill check ur vids now im so glad i found u!!!
Thank you! So useful! Was is lasting on the eye lid?
I really like your DIY video. I just wondering is the eyeliner long wear & water proof?
Hi, thank you so much for this. I tired it, and it was good. However it doesn't last long. Should we mix in some bees wax in melted form or something.
Can you use it on your eyelashes too? 😍😍😍
This is actually amazing. Thanks a lot ❤
black eyeshadow works really well too
u r the queen of DIY !!
Thank you so much for those diy they are very helpful.
I love your channel! And you're so creative and talented :) x
I made a activated charcoal and aloe Vera gel liner but it won't dry!!
So I used it as black lipstick
Can I use wax to make it harder? Btw looove this vid!
This is so awesome!! I am definitely trying this one!!
Hi Ela can i substitute aloe gel for something else?
Thank you for your videos
where do you get that charcoa thingy? and isn't there anything else you can use instead of that charcoal thing?? like I dont know smooshed old eyeshadow that you dont use?
Hi I love your videos. Do you have videos for eye-shadow and blush?
So cool I love your diy's they are really helpful
This may be a dumb question, but is there any chance you can use fish oil instead of vitamin E oil? Love, love, love this video by the way x
Girl I love it. I am trying to make my own organic make up thank you so much
Instead of using charcoal could I use crushed burnt almonds. They provide a black color and they are Vitamin E as well. Thanks!
great idea. Is this eyeliner waterproof?
Great. Thank You for taking the time to make this video
So cool! I will totally try it
I just adore this diy!
can I use fresh aloevera gel, but it wont be as soft as a bottle one.
Could you make different shades of brown by using cinnamon and maybe even arrowroot powder?
Haley Welsch not sure you should use cinnamon so close to your eyes, it can cause irritation :(
What do you think about using burnt almonds?
Wow!! this is great, thank you so much, I'm very allergic, so I never were makeup but now I will give this a try :D
This is awesome! Thank you so much, now I just have to try this :)
Is 1 teaspoon of charcoal powder enough? I don't have capsules
You could also use cocoa powder for a brown effect
Ela maybe you know how to troubleshoot this? I so wanted to love this recipe…but it is not working out for me :-( Maybe in New Zealand they grind their activated charcoal to more smooth and powdery texture? My charcoal, although appearing powdery, I can still feel grittiness between my fingers when I rub it.I thought when I added the gel wetting it might smooth it out, but I can still feel grit. I even remade it grinding it in advance with a mortar and pestle for quite a while. I still feel it is gritty to use near the eye, what if some flaked into the eye - ouch! I even added some melted beeswax for smoothness after. Still feel it. Maybe you too feel that grittiness, but it doesn't flake. Or maybe yours is smooth as baby powder IDK! Any ideas how to to fix this?
I have the same issue, but I do just grind mine down with a mortar and pestle and it works fine, though honestly I grind it for about three hours. It will never be as smooth as you want it to be, but it can get pretty close. It's just one of those things you have to deal with when using charcoal as a cosmetic ingredient. There is a cute Indian girl who shows essentially how to make old fashioned 'lamp black' which she then uses to make her eyeliner. It's one of the first several videos that pop up when you search 'make your own natural eyeliner' on TH-cam. Her method is going to give you the smoothest natural charcoal black you can get, but it is a little more time and effort consuming.
@@sevyrancesilver2772 Thank you so much for your reply, that was so sweet. My comment was so many years ago I forgot about it...I'm surprised I got no responses all this time. I was a lifelong vegetarian then, but I would not use beeswax now as I am Vegan. I have used powdered Kohl / Kajal as I grew up, because my Dad's wife was Morrocan and she gave me my first batch! I wanted a different method, because some kohl you purchase can contain lead. I do know how to make it from the lamp but when my kids were younger I was afraid to leave it burning so long! Thank you for your comment I think years later I can now revisit the lamp method!
💗🙏🌺
Question. Do you actually use your natural products like this eyeliner on a daily basis?
I have only loose charcoal..how many tsps would 3 capsules equal out too?
you are wonderful! :) Thanks for the great tips!
if i want a white colore, can i use an eyshadow instead of the charkal?
What can you use instead of alo vera gel. Thx:-)
Maybe vaseline would be great
girl you deserve more subscribers you are so amazing and your videos are so mind blowing... so I guess what I am saying is that I love your videos and your personality...your so down to earth ..really though wish you the best
sincerely,
your subscriber
Will this diy hold up if not stored in a cool environment?
Can we also apply this on the lower water line?
Hi there Ela🌷 I have a question for you.. I have followed your recipe to the exact science, yet the activated charcoal stays a bit separated after mixing well. When I mean well, I mean mixing for s good half hour. When applying it’s gritty, and dries up with charcoal falling into my eyes and burning me like crazy. Any suggestions as to why my formula isn’t mixing correctly?
Adelita DeLune Charcoal is pretty coarse and likes to clump up when wet, so I think that you could try blending the charcoal in a coffee grounder or a spice grounder to try to make it more finely milled.
You could also try iron oxide pigment because those powders are much more finely milled and are much less likely to clump together when wet
the things you know are amazing i love you so much i watch all your vidios!
I followed the direction with the right ingredients, but the liner was so liquid y so I added another one of the charcoal and still wasn't dark enough so I have added another one which makes 3 charcoals now and I kept putting on one coat to another until it finally got black. I had to apply on it several times until it finally looked like eyeliner.
hello there! thank you for the lovely video! do you think I could use castor oil (it's pretty thick) instead of vitamin E oil? thanks!
No castor oil near the eyes
Mine dried up after about two months. How do I troubleshoot?Thanks
Eye liner and mascara should no be used after 2-3 months. Time to was container and make a new batch.
Can i use black eyeshadow?
You are the best beauty guru ever!!!!!
Is this a waterproof eyeliner and also is your mascara waterproof mascara
is there any material can be used than the black ones on the last step
Love this! I really don't like store bought gel liner because I can never remove it completely
