Erin8, 27 June, 2013 at 17:13 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 13

I am hunting to find a good eye pencil and l wonder if anyone had any recommendations? I currently have the MAC one which aint that great, it doesn't go on very smoothly and drags a bit. Thanks!

    I use at least one MAC one and it's fine on some eyeshadow (Urban Decay) and not on others (Rimmel, Clarins).

    I like Urban Decay ones, I find they glide on really easily.

    Aren't they called Glide On? Have you been brainwashed by the manufacturer? Smiley smile

    Mac do a couple of versions of their eye pencil. One is called "technikohl" I think, it's way smoother and doesn't drag as much IMO.

    I've been using Avon Glimmersticks in Blackest Black for a decade now and swear by it ?

    Does it have to be pencil? Lancôme do an amazing felt tip style liner?

    there is a new l'oreal eyeliner which I saw an advert for today. Will have a google..

    I've also used Avon Glimmerstix for years in Starry Night Blue and, for some reason, they have made it waterproof and it's a pig to get off. I'm still looking for a non-waterproof one that's as good as Avon but failing miserably so far. I've used E.Lauder but that's a larger tip on it and difficult to get a 'clean' line. I've also tried Clinique which only lasted a few weeks and was very crumbly and kept breaking up when applied.

    Hopefully, one day I will find one as good as Avon so will keep looking but meanwhile am back to using Avon once more but having to use eye make up remover to get it off which I hate using as it irritates my eyes and gives me gungyness a bit like conjunctivitis. I don't understand why eye make up has to be waterproof though... unless you swim in it or cry a lot or rub your eyes constantly, what's the point?

    No.7 Stay Perfect metallic eyes pencil is great. My friend talked me into it as was buy one get one half price and it's great. Very similar to the glimmersticks. I use a hot cloth cleanser and it comes off easily with that, never need a separate remover :-)

    ETA: It is very, very smooth!

    Im a liquid eyeliner girl, can recommend the Rimmel version of that!

    Some one bought me the Benefit felt pen liner but it smudges so easily and rubs on to the top of my eye (under my eyebrow!)

    I got the Lancôme eye pencil and it is amazing. Very little drag and lasts well.

    Thanks again for the ideas everyone!
