It is great for in the lash line and it smudges just enough with a brush for a pretty smoky look.ġ3. Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner: I stock up on this pencil in Black and Damsel. I have it in black, brown and my favorite is actually Penny Lane.ġ2. My favorite part is that if you twist the cap, it sharpens the pencil! That’s super easy, and it saves space when you’re traveling. Smashbox ‘Always Sharp’ Waterproof Kôhl Liner: I discovered this pencil when a makeup artist at Nordie’s used it on me in Chicago, and I think I’ve repurchased it about 4 times in the last year. It also stays put all day for me, and the formula is just a tad harder (which can mean fewer smudges). Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Color Smoky Eyes Pencil: If the Too Faced is too soft for your waterline, the Elizabeth Arden is the way to go. CoverGirl Perfect Blend Eye Pencil: A great drugstore find! It’s just soft enough to blend easily from the lash line.ġ0. Too Faced Perfect Eyes Eyeliner: This is my favorite for lining my waterline, it seems to apply the easiest and stays put all day.ĩ. There are some amazing colors in this formula as well.Ĩ. Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil: If you want black, Perversion is the darkest black from UD. Pencil LinersĪs much as I love the other types of liners, these are the ones that I tend to reach for the most often.ħ. CoverGirl Bombshell Intensity Liner: Very similar to the Stila, this pen is a fraction of the price and I love the smaller size! It fits right into the palm of my hand very easily. Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner: This has long been my “go-to” liquid liner pen.Ħ. Urban Decay Ink for Eyes Waterproof Precision Eye Pen: Again, another new product from Urban Decay! This is the darkest of the 3.ĥ. I need the tip to have very pigmented liquid that applies easily from the pen, none of those mostly dry pen tips for me! I should note that I’ve heard great things about NYX’s The Curve liner as well, but I just bought it and haven’t tried it out yet.Ĥ. I want the felt tip to be longer and very pointed, and a little bit flexible. Putting liquid liner in a felt tip pen makes it much easier for me to deal with than a pot and brush! I’ve tried 30 or 40 different kinds of pens, but these are the 3 (!) that make the cut. So, for me this is a night out liner, not great for a full day at work. I do think it’s pretty great, though I have smudging after about 10-12 hours. MAC Fluidline: What would a post about black liners be without mentioning MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack? It’s the gold standard of gel liners, the one that most makeup artists and many of my friends swear by. I think it is more pigmented than the MAC, and for me it is longer wearing.ģ. Urban Decay Super-Saturated Ultra Intense Waterproof Cream Eyeliner: This is a new product from UD, it’s sitting on my vanity waiting to be reviewed. It isn’t quite as pigmented as the Urban Decay and MAC versions, but it is close and a fraction of the cost!Ģ. Maybelline Lasting Drama by EyeStudio Gel Eyeliner: This is a great drugstore version of the gel liner. I featured 3 products here, but there’s also a great version from Bobbi Brown (I haven’t bought it in a few years, so it was left out of the collage), and L’Oreal makes a good one that I just couldn’t find on-line.ġ. I like to use a stiff angled brush to apply these liners, and they’re usually pretty long lasting. So, here are the brands and formulas of black eyeliners that I have in my drawer and have repurchased multiple times! Gel Liners (Something about the women in their tunics intimidates me.) I haven’t tried as many department store brands, in large because I don’t really shop at those stores.
