Even if I don't do any of my other makeup the two I usually fall back on is foundation and eyeliner (also because if I don't people often tell me I look sick or tired. Its like wow never knew cat eyeliner can have such an effect) I also stick with liquid Ive found the others to run during the day for me, leaving me streaky and raccoon eyeish. Ive never tried benefits though but I should give it a try! <br />Justine <br />http://theredlipchronicles.blogspot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05192813216163591008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566602409043396856.post-77746089159926901252014-09-17T17:36:04.764-07:002014-09-17T17:36:04.764-07:00I feel like they all have their uses.

For a big cat eye, I usually use gel liner, since I can just kind of stamp it on with an angled brush, but I default to pencil liner for an every day look. The smudginess and diffuse color are great for giving me a little more definition without looking too harsh. I love the recommendations for brands to try, I'll have to give that Nars a shot.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06827840216337511678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566602409043396856.post-58535132157361324152014-09-17T12:09:19.988-07:002014-09-17T12:09:19.988-07:00Great minds think alike ;)Great minds think alike ;)Ashley of Southern (California) Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12303402667755643005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566602409043396856.post-42051375489845753962014-09-17T12:09:00.165-07:002014-09-17T12:09:00.165-07:00Sounds like a lot of people use the same gel liner...Sounds like a lot of people use the same gel liner as we do.

I completely agree with you about pencil liner - I really don't like it actually. But I also have real trouble with gels... I find them harder to apply than liquids! I've been using the same £3 liquid eyeliner daily since I was about 17 though, so perhaps I've just had a LOT of practice by now ;) xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06025321570347909818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566602409043396856.post-25969135666751633872014-09-16T07:07:24.268-07:002014-09-16T07:07:24.268-07:00This is so helpful.

Good to know it seems to be pretty nice. I like liquid, but it feels a little too weird on the eyes for me. I like pencils that don't need sharpened, but they smear on upper lid too much. Why isn't there some make potion?!Midwest Musehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05714361430488608163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-566602409043396856.post-76877299922324411482014-09-16T06:43:43.817-07:002014-09-16T06:43:43.817-07:00I think this calls for a tutorial!!!!
