gel liner is liquid eyeliner??
hmm.. i'm looking for crayon eyeliner
any recommendations ?
i tried revlon colorstay..
but smudge a bit..
Gel liner is definitely not the same as liquid eyeliner - gel liner comes in mini 'pots' and you'd need a fine brush to apply it onto ur eyes (try Coastal Scent's angled taklon eye liner, Etude House has one too for less than RM10 after discount) while liquid eyeliner comes in a small bottle and is in, well, liquid form! My favourite is Etude House's Oh My! coz it reallllly stays (limited colours tho). Liquid eyeliners help to create a 'sharper' eye make-up look whereas for gel liner, like Bobbi Brown's in Cappucino Ink (?) can be used for a more natural effect.
Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliners are among the best in the market - and the choice of colours are amazing! Good lasting power too but it's what, RM60? Coastal Scents also carry gel eyeliners for much less than that...
But I digress. Pencil eyeliners - the best for me are Urban Decay 24/7 and Tigi Bedhead Big Fat Fun (available in Sasa) pencils. Some other pencils that are easy on the eye are Chanel's. But both are pricey

I was also recommended Almay's Amazing Lasting 16-hour pencils and ELF Minerals (smudges)
Like a friend once said.. It's almost impossible to find a pencil that is smudgeproof especially for us girls with oily lids. Your best bet is to use a primer beforehand. Some bloggers swear by Make Up Forever's Eye Seal to make pencils smudge-proof.
