Eyeliner: Wet n Wild H20 Proof Blending Eye Pencil, $1.99

TotalBeauty.com rating: 9.0*
Why it's great: "Cheap doesn't always mean poor quality, and this pencil proves it. This smudge-proof and waterproof liner is soft enough to glide on smoothly, but not so soft that it slips right off. It also comes with a smudging tool that allows you to create a more smoky finish -- tres versatile. This stuff really stays on, and at this price you can buy all four shades without guilt." -- Reviewed by Kristen, Editor

I don't like Salley Hansen or NYC but anything by MARK is nothing short of amazing, MARK is so cheap and so good. It may not compare to my Too Faced Products but if you're on a budget, get it.
