There's no doubting the fact that a good eyeliner that doesn't budge is an absolute must for eye makeup enthusiasts! Personally, I am terrible at applying eyeliner so I just avoid it! But for those of you who can master the cat eye and don't want a small touch of the eye to ruin your artwork, then a budge-proof, smudge-proof, water-resistant eyeliner is essential! A few extra fabulous ones are listed below!

1. Marc Jacobs Beauty Highliner Gel Crayon
I have this eyeliner in black and on the rare occasion that I actually wear eyeliner, this is my go-to! Its gel formula is so smooth and goes on easy, and the best part is that it does not smudge at all! It makes the application process a breeze, especially for those who aren't skilled in drawing a perfect line.

2. Tarte Lights, Camera, Action Precision Longwear Liquid Liner
Tarte is an outstanding brand and literally everything I've tried from them is superb! Liquid liners are a fan-favorite and for a good reason-they glide on and make winged eyeliner a snap with just a flick of the wrist! It's a super pigmented formula, lasts for ages, and is incredibly precise in its application.

3. L'Oreál Lineur Intense Felt Tip Liquid
Here's another fan-fave, felt tip liquid liner that is a must-try! And you can't beat the price. Its tip allows for a precise thin to thick line, is fragrance free (perfect for sensitive skin/eyes!), and lasts for 8 hours! There's no flaking or smudging, either.

4. Make up for Ever Aqua XL Eye Pencil Waterproof Eyeliner
Are you tired of your same old black eyeliner?? Well, then you must try this Make Up For Ever eyeliner! It comes in a variety of intense shades, totally pigmented and glide on super easy. They don't budge and are the perfect replacement for your typical black liner and eyeshadow! I've been wanting to try colored liner for a while now and the only question is, how do I decide on which color?

5. Too Faced Bulletproof Liner 24 Hour Liner
This liner is super unique! It dries down in 60 seconds and has a smudge brush at one end so you can transform your lined look into the perfect smoky eye! Plus, it blurs and takes away any harsh lines/pigment. It lasts 24 hours, too, although you shouldn't be wearing makeup for that long!

6. NYX Cosmetics Retractable Eyeliner
NYX is one of my favorite brands and I actually own their liquid felt liner! Retractable liners are also great because you don't have to take the time to sharpen them, and generally they glide on much smoother. This formula is hydrating and has incredible staying power! And again, can't beat the price!
To buy: ulta.com, $4.49
7. URBAN DECAY 24/7 Glide-on Eye Pencil
This pencil comes in a rainbow of fantastic shades! It's creamy and moisturizing formula glides on perfectly and lasts all day (it's also waterproof!). Urban decay is a solid and quality brand so you can't go wrong with any of their products!
