I like to apply my eyeliner using a brush and have been looking for a replacement to the one I used to use for a while. I'm loving this one, it lasts all day and doesn't end up in my crease. The colour is a stand out black.

I have extremely oily eyelids and NEVER found an eyeliner that could last more than 3 hours without fading or disappearing entirely. enter the smudge pot! I am terrible with liquid eyeliners but found it really easy to apply with a brush. to save money, go to an art supply store and get a flat, angled brush which works great (make sure to get natural hairs or you'll poke your eye out). despite the name, it doesn't smudge once it sets and I found it to be mostly waterproof.
the only downside is the pot dries up fast, which is unfortunate because there's a lot of product in one pot, and I don't even get to use 75% of it. it's also a bit pricey, but I am a regular shopper at Sephora so it is the usual amount I pay for makeup. I've now switched over to Smashbox's liner; same great results but doesn't dry out as quickly!

These smudge pots really do what they're suposed to do! I have this in Bronze and it is a gorgeous color! The packaging is ncie and although the price paid is quite high, you actually do get a lot of product which lasts you for quite some time. I have been using this as my eyeliner for a long time and i found that it was super easy to apply with a small angled brush. The product literally lasts all day and even if you do a bit of rubbing, it doesnt move until you take it off with makeup remover. You can also use this product as a base for your eyeshadows to make it stay and last longer. I would recommend however, that you make sure you tighten your jar very tightly after every use as i have heard that it does tend to dry out if you dont. Of course, this goes for all other gel liners, but just thought i'd put it here anyways. Overall, i LOVE this product and would highly recommend it!

Another fave of mine from Stila. This is definitely a staple in my beauty stash. I received a mini gift set of 3 in: Black Cat, Bronze, and Gray. This gel formula glides on the eyes easily whether you're giving it sexy definition or smoking them out. It is also long-lasting. I love layering underneath powder shadows as well for extra drama. When I'm in a hurry and want a little colour and definition I take a brush and smudge the Bronze shade close to the lash line and into the crease. Want to get the other shades as well. A little goes a long way so it'll last for a while. The only downside is that if you don't close the cap tightly it will dry out.

One of the best eyeliners I've ever used. It takes a while to learn to use it properly but once you do you won't be able to live without it. It stays on forever and you can keep it straight or smudgy depending on what you want.
