Recommendations for Eye-liner

Hi ladies...

Can anyone recommend pencil eyeliner that they really like that actually stays on? I have tried many and nothing seems to work. I usually put the eyeliner on my tear line so maybe that's why I'm having a hard time finding a good one. I have MAC's Kohl line and it glides well but smears after a few hours. I also have the liquid one from Laura Mercier but it just takes long to put on. I just need a pencil that works. Thanks so much for reading this!

What can I do next?

Lancome water proof eyeliner. its self sharpening too. i dont have eyelashes due to a disorder that i have so i use that on my eyes and as close to the eyeball i can get (right where eyelashes would grow) and it doesnt smude (unless im crying and i wipe/itch my eyes really hard). i love it :)

I am a bit biased since I am a Mary Kay consultant (my www.marykay.com/skmoore) but I love Mary Kay eyeliner. I haven't had trouble with it smearing and it stays put all day.

Hi,
Have you tried The Body Shop at Home?
Here is my website: www.thebodyshopathome.com/web/cflesher.
It is body shop products for busy Moms like you that don't have time to get to the mall. Let me know what you would like to sample.
Thanks,

Hi,
I like Almay intense eye color eyeliner( different shades for your eye color)...even compared to the bare escentuals which is more expensive, it works and looks great! The drawback though is that it;s unnatural ingredients are damaging long-term.

I have used good old Cover Girl for the last 15 years and am always satisfied with it. I do use other brands but this is my standard for every day. An added bonus is the price for sure!!

Good luck!

Lancome has great pencils and colors. They are my favorite and I have alot of eyeliner pencils I use from various counters such as Clinque, Este, etc. I do not put it on the tear line though and that may be your problem because of the moisture of the eyes. I put on under neath the bottom eye lashes and the top of my upper lashes and it stays on all night and day.

Hope that helps.

I use Mary Kay. I know a lot of people turn thier nose up to Mary Kay and I did too, but I have found this to be a great product.

Hope this helps.

A.: It is so funny you wrote this, because I had the same problem with this recently. I discovered that as far as actual "pencil" eyeliners go, getting back to the basics is the best thing you can do. An ACTUAL pencil. I bought the benefit one, and it works. Another really pro trick that I learned for makeup longevity is primer, primer, primer!!! Makeup primer not only allows your face to provide a flawless canvas for application, but they also make your makeup stay in place! I would recommend the smashbox pro primer, their original one is the best. Sephora carries it, and also online.
Good luck. I hope you enjoy these products.

HI A.
put the eyeliner where your lower eyelashes are and it will stay on all day and any pencil will work
I use cover girl
good luck Danielle mother of 4

I really like the Maybelline "twist up" style eyeliner pencil. It is may not be a department store name brand product, but that also means it is very affordable! This liner is easy to apply, does not smudge unless you rub your eyes or have a good cry, but it still washes off easily. Looks like they have three different types now...check out their website.
