This review is really about comparing the three different types of eye liners, not to let you know which is best. All three types come in handy for different occasions.
The following details a list of advantages and disadvantages of each type of liner:
GEL
Advantages:
- Easy to Use
- Doesn't Smudge
- Virtually water/sweat proof
- Makes a clean, crisp line
- Great for everyday wear
Disadvantages
- Cannot smudge for smokey look
- Can't use in waterline
- Too harsh for under eye line
Liquid
Advantages
- Easier to use for some people
- Comes in great colours
- Quick
- Crusts up throughout the day
- Messy
- No crisp line
- Not waterproof
Pencil
Advantages
- Great for Smokey Eye
- Can be used for waterline
- Smudge under eye
Disadvantages
- No bold colours
- Runs throughout the day
Gel is by far my personal favourite because I find it gets the job done and lasts all day. When you first put it on, it dries instantly so will not be messy. Mac make wonderful gel eyeliners with appropriate brushes for application.
What type of eyeliner do you tend to use the most and why?
