Just that really. My eyes water quite a bit through the day. I have tried so many eye pencils that claim to be waterproof but they always smudge or run. A friend of mine swears by Guerlain kohl but at £18 I thought I would research cheaper options first! Any recommendations? Thanks

Avon's Supershock Gel Eyeliner Pencil is a favourite of mine. Completely budgeproof on me.

i have the Avon gel liner its no good for me, i have tried double wear pencil, and a lancome one, both still smudge on me. i even tried the gel liner which comes in a pot, it still don't work on me.

Urban Decay have a specific waterliner pencil. I've only tried the black but it works.

Rimmel gel liner doesn't budge on my very watery eyes! Although I tend to just use a darker shade of eyeshadow to line nowadays.

Sorry it's Rimmel Scandaleyes waterproof kohl kajal. It's a bugger to get off though.

Seconding Soap & Glory smoulder kohl - plus it's only £5 or so. With eyelid primer.
I've tried Lancome, Givenchy etc and they are way too smudgy.

My eyes water the minute I put makeup on , am I allergic do you reckon or is there mascara and eyeliner that won't make them stream ?

The biggest difference I noticed was after the optician said I had dry eyes and told me to ask my gp for dry eye drops. I didn’t understand how I could have dry eyes when they watered so much but apparently that’s a dry eye thing. Anyhow the drops really have helped but the best liner I’ve tried is Mac gel liner.

I bought S&G Smoulder Kohl and wore it to the pub last night. So far so good! Thanks all
