MAC Colour Excess Gel Pencil Eyeliner — Sick Tat Bro (Dark Brown), Waterproof Long-Wear Creamy Gel

MAC Colour Excess Gel Pencil in "Sick Tat Bro" is a richly pigmented, waterproof dark brown gel pencil eyeliner engineered to deliver smudge-resistant color for extended wear.

This gel-pencil combines a creamy gel formula with long-lasting, waterproof performance so you can define eyes with intense, buildable pigment. Designed to perform on both lids and waterlines, the pencil glides on smoothly, resists transfer, and stays vibrant throughout the day and night. Its deep brown shade—named Sick Tat Bro—offers a softer, more natural alternative to black while preserving definition and depth.

How long will the Colour Excess Gel Pencil last on my lids and waterline?

The formula is made for prolonged wear: expect up to 24+ hours on eyelids and around 12 hours on waterlines under typical conditions. While individual results vary by skin type, environment, and activity, the gel-based pigment and waterproof finish help minimize fading and smudging.

• Up to 24+ hours wear on eyelids under normal conditions
• Approximately 12 hours of wear on waterlines
• Waterproof finish reduces transfer and running
• Best set with a matching eyeshadow to extend longevity

What texture and finish should I expect from this dark brown gel pencil?

The pencil has a creamy, gel-like glide that deposits rich color without pulling the delicate eyelid skin. Once applied, the finish dries down to a saturated, slightly satin-matte that reads like concentrated pigment rather than a glossy liner.

• Creamy gel texture for smooth, precise application
• Saturated, buildable color payoff in one to few strokes
• Satin-matte finish for a natural yet defined look
• Suitable for tightlining and creating smoky lines

How should I apply and remove the Colour Excess Gel Pencil for best results?

Apply directly along the lash line for definition, or use short strokes and blend with a smudger brush to create a smoky edge. For waterline use, ensure the tip is clean and apply gently; set with a matching powder or eyeshadow if needed. To remove, use a dedicated eye makeup remover suitable for waterproof formulas.

• Apply in short, even strokes along lashes for control
• Smudge immediately if soft edges are desired, then let set
• Set on the lid or waterline with coordinating powder for extra hold
• Remove with oil-based or waterproof eye makeup remover

Is "Sick Tat Bro" dark brown suitable for everyday looks or evening glam?

Yes—this deep brown shade is versatile enough for both subtle daytime definition and intensified evening looks. It softens the contrast compared with black while maintaining clear contouring, making it useful across diverse skin tones and styles.

• Subtle daytime definition for natural makeup
• Layer and smudge for smoky, evening-ready effects
• Works well with warm or neutral eyeshadow palettes
• Flattering on a range of skin tones as a softer alternative to black

Who is this product for? If you want a high-pigment, waterproof gel pencil that balances a creamy application with long-wear performance, MAC Colour Excess Gel Pencil in Sick Tat Bro fits the bill. It's ideal for makeup users who tightline, define, or smoke out the lash line and need a dependable dark brown that resists smudging throughout busy days and late nights. Professional artists, everyday wearers seeking durable definition, and anyone looking for a softer-than-black liner will find this pencil practical and performance-driven.
