Hello- about to take the plunge and buy a new eyeliner pencil- I love the gel in pots (and yes I know they dry out) but has anyone tried the new pencils and can share their opinion?

Not tried them, but Avon do this Supershock Gel Eyeliner pencil which does NOT budge and is cheap!

thanks MooMin- wish they did a dark brown- do they ever offer different colours?

Black is standard, the khaki etc must be new season's limited editions. I got a lovely plummy brown called 'Blackberry' off EBay a while back? Worth a look Smile

Rimmel have a new range of pencil 'Scandaleyes'(?) that look similar too.

Yep I luff them - have 5 Blush. You really need to put a bit of the BB long lasting eye shadow underneath to make the liner stay put all day though. I have a boring neutral colour ( Malted) which works really well.

Mum of 3- I live in Malted! is the perfect base.... thanks

Ooh fancy that! Yes I prefer the pencils to the pots, although they won't last as long I fear. Hunter (green) is a really good colour, which I wouldn't have bought if they hadn't suggested it. They all come with their own pencil sharpener.

i have Hunter, great shade. but i hate the gel pencils, they smudge like buggery. I am blinky and watery and they are shocking on me. More money wasted on so called must haves, grrrr

just an update- the gel pencils are working out beautifully for me- if I use the BB long lasting eye shadow underneath as mumof3teens suggested. We're talking from 6 AM until 9 PM- so all day! Lololizzy- PM me - maybe I can buy your Hunter pencil?

I have tried Avon and BB and prefer the Avon for price and colour. Glad they suit you OP.
