Only a few years ago it seemed that gel eyeliner was exclusive to higher end brands... but not anymore! High street brands including Maybelline, Revlon, Rimmel and Barry M have all recently brought out a gel eyeliner, as have Collection (formerly Collection 2000).
I was looking to buy a brown gel liner for everyday wear for a change to my usual black. Whilst browsing I discovered that Collection had a range of gel liners - available in black, brown, teal and gold.
At £4.99 I thought I'd give it a whirl. So what do I think? On their website Collection claims that the eyeliner gives '12 hours lasting wear', although I did not wear the liner for precisely 12 hours it certainly lasted throughout the day. The colour, a dark but-not-too-dark brown was a perfect change from black and suitable for daytime.
The only downside to this product is the brush that it comes with. The brush is far too small and fiddly to use so I would recommend using another eyeliner brush with this product.
Overall I really like this eyeliner and I would repurchase. I think this product is as good as gel eyeliners from much more expensive brands so well done Collection! Collection products are available in both Boots and Superdrug stores as well as online.
I tried a Revlon gel liner and it smudged all over the place - would love to try this though, sounds much better.

I haven't tried the revlon one yet but I do really like this collection one. Especially considering the price too!
