Your fail-safe black eyeliner?

I'm sure it's an oft asked question but I thought I'd ask you anyway!

What eyeliner do you go back to time and time again? I'm determined to crack the art of winged eyeliner (it's on my soon to be compiled New Year's resolution list) and would love to know which eyeliner will best assist me in this. One that's very black, that gives sharp lines and does not budge.

Thanks!

Only thing I find with Kat von D Tattoo liner is it doesn't go over eyeshadow very well, so I find you have to line first, apply eyeshadow and then apply the liner again. I don't have to do that with Lancome Artliner, it goes over eyeshadow pretty easily.

Get a Vamp stamp for your winged eyeliner

It will change your life, I’ve got hooded lids and can STILL have a wing 👌🏻

@HorseItIntoMe do those stamps actually work? Where did you get it from?

I'd say the Lancôme Art Liner is my favourite out of them all BUT nothing will beat the staying power of 17 Tattoo Me Smile

I actually have a vamp stamp (bought it on ebay). It's okay but it doesn't give that really clean line that I covet and the ink itself isn't great.

Another for Kat Von D, just for the nib alone to be honest. It is so finely tipped that it makes drawing your wing so much easier. I find that sometimes when I have finished I have to go over the actual ink with a liquid liner to get it a bit blacker (I use rimmel which is nice and cheap) but I can only get a decent shaped wing with the KVD pen.

For regular penis liner I love Urban Decay 24/7, the black one.

PENCIL liner!!! Blush

NYX Epic Ink is amazing. Doesn’t move all day, easy to apply

Clinique pretty easy is fool proof and looks great

I got my vamp stamp on eBay! (Beware of cheap imitations though)

I find it absolutely foolproof tbh

The one downside is the ink dries up quick, I have to buy a pot every month or so

I prefer eyeko liner to Kat Von D.

Came on to say Avon glimmer sticks but beaten to it. Really smooth formula, dark black colour and go on easily. Mine stays on until bedtime. Thanks to a pp for that link - I'm stocking up as they are on offer! ☺
