What is the best gel eyeliner for contact wearers?

Question

I wear contacts, and I've tried just about every retractable and pencil eyeliner out there, and they always leave little specs of eyeliner on my contacts that can't be removed even with contact solution, causing me to throw away a fresh new pair every time.

I heard gel eyeliner is really good.

Is it better than other eyeliners? (liquid, pencil, retractable, etc.)

I'm a big eyeliner person and use it everyday in addition to bright funky eyeshadow colors.

What's the best gel eyeliner that I can get cheap at a drugstore, or at Macy's or something?

It doesn't unnecessarily have to be cheap, but of good quality.

And just because it says "safe for contact wearers" doesn't mean that it is, because I know Almay and Covergirl and a ton of other makeup companies put that on their eyeliner but they all have left immovable specs on my contacts, so only people experienced with eyeliner answer please!

If you could give me feedback that would be great, thanks!

Answer 1

i wear contacts and still wear eyeliner most of the time. its the pencil kind tho. just dont put it on the inside of your eyes and put on your contacts BEFORE you put on your makeupp. but it right under/on the bottom and top eyelashes

Answer 2

I wear contacts too and i use MAC fluidline. It is a gel eyeliner and comes in so many colors. Its $14.50 and can be purchased at Macy's, Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, or a freestanding MAC store. It goes on very easily and lasts all day. Sometimes, if you put too much eyeliner on the brush, it can cause spots on your contacts, this has happened to me before but i was always able to remove it and i haven't lost any contacts because of it.

i love loreal hip creme eyeliner ( its the closest to mac's fluidline ) . its like 10 at walmart, but one container lasts for over 5 months .

and it might help if you put on your contacts BEFORE you put on makeup .
