Shu Uemura Painting Liners
I thought my shu umeura liquid eyeliner was my reliable standby, but their new Painting Liners are rivaling their star product. The gel formula is very pigmented, so there's no need to slap a lot on at once. You can layer and mix with the other colors, so there's plenty of room to play around.
This waterproof liner stays in place for quite a long time. The line comes in nine colors - I tried the purple and silver shades. At first glance I thought the purple could be a tad bit too dramatic, but you can definitely carry it off nicely. The silver one is a superb accent, as you can dab it at the inner corners of the eye line, or paint a thin line as an shimmery accent.
These give an incredibly smooth glide across the lid, and they're totally smudge-proof and cake-proof. Another fun thing is you can use these as a cream eye shadow. They recommend using their new Portable Eye Liner Brush to make your application easier, so I'm looking forward to checking that out.
