I've been wearing eyeliner since high school. I'm Japanese, and I love that cat-eye look. But two things drove me crazy: 1) I have a natural eye fold, but it's not large enough to prevent creasing, and 2) most eyeliner has a bulky brush attached to the screw cap that is awful and clumpy.
Enter...Stila Liquid Eyeliner. This baby is like a fine sumi ink brush. It goes on like rich, smooth, delicious Sharpie ink. The blacks are bold and intense. The brush doesn't clog or clump or leave flecks of dried eyeliner in your eyes. You can draw a cat-eye. You can draw fake eyelashes. Heck, you can draw tiny designs in the corner of your eyes if you want! And it will stay there all day, in the rain and swimming pool and humidity and sweat, until you remove it with makeup cleanser. Or, if you've had a crazy day and crash on the sofa, you'll wake up with flawless eyeliner (even if your foundation looks like crap).
And it lasts, too! I wear a thick band of eyeliner on the tops and bottoms, plus a cat-eye wing, everyday and one stick lasts me a month or two. You can put it on the bottom eyeline as well. I would NOT recommend you line your waterline with it though. The black comes out liquidy (hence the beautiful thin lines), so if it touches your water line it will spread like watercolor paint. It won't sting your eyes at all, but looks gross when the whites of your eyes flood grey. Just dab it out with a q-tip.
Instead, keep your eyes very dry. Wipe with toner, then apply eye cream, foundation, and a matte powder. This creates the perfect, dry, smooth surface for your eyeliner. You will have wonderfully crisp, jet black lines. Easy to fill between your eyelashes and create designs. So lovely! If you have slightly oily skin, or leave it bare, this product will not look as nice. Drawing it on unprepped skin gives it a harsh, crude look. The edges of the lines might look jagged or crooked. At minimum, apply a tinted primer.
I will buy this product forever. If the company threatens to go under, I'll buy enough of their remaining stock to last until my senior citizen age. I cannot recommend this product enough! Remember, prep your eye area well!
