Bobbi Brown Long Wear Gel EyelinerThis little pot o' liner is awesome. It goes on easier than a traditional liquid liner -- especially if you use a quality fine-tip brush -- and actually lasts. Other cream or gel liners on the market (like Smashbox Cream Eye Liner) don't have this longevity. A few seconds after you glide it on, it dries and doesn't budge. I...More |

Aveda Petal Essence Eye DefinerI generally steer clear of pencils for fear that they'll be too hard, too soft or too difficult to sharpen. But this forest management-friendly little guy gives me hope. Though the rich color isn't waterproof, it doesn't smudge or fade unless you work at it. The plastic cap isn't easily lost, as it fits snugly over the firm...More $12.00See more Aveda products |
