Hard Candy Glitter Eye PencilsIf I want to get a late-night snack with friends but don't want to put on makeup, I line my eyes with this firm, mild-hued sparkler and smudge. Everyone's attention is diverted to my twinkling gaze (I think). The slim pencil's holographic exterior is very teen, but attention-grabbing glitter is fine enough for adult sophist...More |

L'Oreal Paris HiP Color Truth Cream EyelinerFans of Stila Smudge Pots may be impressed by this rich, creamy liner and professional-quality brush set. Colors are diverse, super-rich and long-lasting. The unattached, angled brush is easy to lose, but worth safeguarding. Potential poo-poo factors involve dryness: Dry liner will render brush bristles useless (wipe off br...More |

Tarte Indelible WinkLiquid liner on one end, a shadow-loaded smudge sponge on the other. Neat in concept, but the hard, teardrop tip is difficult to line with smoothly. Retrace your dry line with shadow for smokiness; however, the tip removed chunks of my "indelible," "budgeproof" line. (I filled in gaps with the liner.) If...More $22.00See more Tarte products |

MAC Technakohl LinerThis mechanical eye pencil glides on easily, and the ultra thin tip makes creating fine or thick lines easy -- it's also perfect for lining inner rims. The 15 colors are highly pigmented, so if standout eyes are your goal, you'll reach it with this. A complaint? If you have oily lids the stuff transfers slightly onto crease...More $14.50See more MAC products |

Stila Kajal Eye LinerThis eye pencil has rich color and a suede-like texture -- perfect, as claimed, for creating smoky eyes. Shades like Tigers Eye and Amethyst are too great to pass on. The soft formula has enough waxiness so it doesn't fade, but (and it's a big one) the silver lettering on the packaging flakes off, sticking like barnacles to...More $16.00See more Stila products |

Smashbox Cream Eye LinerCream liners are much easier to apply than liquids and offer the same dramatic results, but finding one that has the staying power of a liquid is challenging. This "putty" definitely lasts, but if your skin is oily, throughout the day you'll be mopping up product from your lids where the cream has transferred. Yes...More |

Clinique Kohl Shaper For EyesCertain aspects of this liner are great -- the creamy, rich colors glide on smoothly; the ergonomic shape makes the pencil easy to hold; and there's a sharpener built into the cap (love!). But more importantly, it's among the worst performing liners we've tested in terms of running and smudging. When it isn't set with powde...More |

Maybelline New York Define-A-Line Eye LinerThis skinny plastic wand maximizes space with a liner on one end and a smudge brush on the other. The pencil twists up as needed, and creates a smooth line from inner to outer lids. The packaging isn't as sturdy -- it feels cheapie -- and only comes in half the shades of department store equivalent Clinique Quickliner. Flip...More |

Hourglass Calligraphy Liquid Eye LinerWell I do no more!! I can't believe that there's only one company that has taken the eyeliner to perfection. I have tried so many that made my eyes look totally bizarre, but this felt tip pen made it easy and went on smooth. Packaging is sleek and "weighty", doesn't feel plasticky. It wears until I wash it off....More |
