The Eyeliner That's as Easy as Tracing The Contenders:
Lancôme Artliner Liquid Eyeliner Pen, $30
L'Oreal Paris Infallible The Super Slim Liquid Eyeliner, $8.95
The Breakdown:
Liquid eyeliner is one of my "desert island beauty essentials," so I'm picky when it comes to a regular for my makeup bag. These two liquid eyeliners glide on easily and have slightly harder tips than other products I've tried, which makes drawing a steady line easier. The Lancôme product has more of a spongy tip, whereas the L'Oreal eyeliner is like a fine point pen. Although I like the results of both eyeliners, I run out of product on the tip of the Lancôme liner partway through applying. I often have to shake it up or dip the applicator deeper into the tub multiple times to get product on the brush.
