What is a good eyeliner that stays on long?

Question

My eyeliner always seems to wear off in about 5 mins. I use maybelline define a line, but it just doesnt seem to do the trick..is it where i apply it or what?

Answer 1

Use liquid eyeliner.  

It may be harder to apply, but I find that most will give you the longest-lasting liner every time.  Downside is, it can be harder to smudge.  Most drugstore ones in the little tubes would do fine, but for the high-end stuff, MAC Fluidlines seem to be the best.  They come in the little pot and you have to apply them with your own eyeliner brush.  

As an alternative, try using black eyeshadow.  Get some real good, quality BLACK stuff and use a damp eyeliner brush.  You can smudge it, make it darker, lighter, thinner, whatever, and they last longer than liner pencils.  

Adding shadow primer (like Urban Decay's Primer Potion or Too Faced's Shadow Insurance) would also up the staying power of ANY liner you choose to use.  

Hope this helps [=

Graphblack from M A C but if you don't want to spend that much, covergirl makes one that twists up, and that one works pretty good too!

Answer 11

Since you're using pencil eyeliner, it will naturally smudge a bit or more during the day. You can try setting it (going over it) with some black eyeshadow. If you want liner that lasts longer, use cream liner or liquid liner - albeit those may be harder to use.
