So it should come to no surprise that this comprehensive shopping guide is thorough, with lots of options! I love variety, whether it is in finish, color, or texture.. don't we all?

  1. Love this video! I already use bobbi brown gel liner but have started wearing liquids everyday so will have to try the Lancome. I love their products usually but have never thought to try artliner!

  2. Rae, do you use the Giorgio Armani Waterproof Pencils for tightlining as well? And if you do, do you get transfer on your lower lids?

  3. Hi Rae!

    I was wondering, do you ever "tightline" your eyes? I like how tightlining makes my upper lashline look so much fuller, but I have yet to find a pencil eyeliner that doesn't smudge on me throughout the day. Do you think the Armani or the Lancome pencils will hold up?

    Thanks!

  9. Hi Rae!

    I'm an avid reader and follower of your blog from Indonesia even though I never comment. I would like to ask you recommendation on liquid eyeliner. 

    I'm an Asian girl with mono lid and a oily eyelids. All along I have been using mac liquid lash eyeliner, which has a pretty good staying power on my lids (almost all day with a little bit of smudging of course). Could you recommend me the eyeliner that you think is good from me? Thank you so much and have good day.

  10. Have you ever noticed how often you say "I DO think that..."? Thanks for the reviews! I only seem to have oily skin around my eyes, which is weird, so I get a lot of migration at the corners of my eyes. Smashboxx's liquid liner has been my jam for years because I love the color payoff and felt tip applicator best, but the corners definitely fade too often for someone who loves her winged eyeliner! This was really helpful. I'm going to try out the Mac gel eyeliner and probably some of those liquids soon.
