  • I tested 11 DRUGSTORE Eyeliners to find the BEST one for the WATERLINE. I threw-in one high-end one. There was ONLY ONE eyeliner that lasted all day and didn't transfer to my bottom waterline.

    It’s not always a question of being waterproof, but rather smudge resistant. There are oil glands on the inner eyelid where you are putting the liner. Most liners fail because of the oil.

      This is so true! I'm the one who struggle to find the eye liner that doesn't transfer down to the bottom because of the oil. I've tried soooo many brands from low to high, and none of it has worked. So, you mentioned "most", does it mean that you've found one that actually works against the oil? So far, Lancome drama liqui waterproof eye liner and Senna ultra last eye liner have been the best, but still transfer. Let me know!

    I know this is bursting a bubble here but I have severe dry eye syndrome….prob caused by many years of waterline makeup. The liner blocks the Meibomian glands and prevents normal tear production. If you are getting older the chances are this will happen to you, especially after menopause when everything dries up! PLEASE, PLEASE think twice before using liners on the waterline because, believe me, the misery of MGD means NO make up at all for life for many people who develop it. My eye specialist gets really mad at these kinds of videos as he sees more and more patients each year developing dry eye disease. Your choice of course but I always feel compelled to tell it as it is, thank you.

    Since COVID I stopped wearing makeup. Recently, I started wearing makeup again so, I'm a little out of practice and don't know what's good or not?? Thank you for your honest review. I rushed out to get the Milani Stay Put Eyeliner as I wanted to try it out. Your review was totally correct the eyeliner stayed in place and lasted all day and only went when I took it off. However, I did find that a bit had transferred to my bottom waterline. Must admit, I haven't done eyeliner in years so it might be my technique. It didn't irritate my eyes, had a lovely creamy texture and glided on easily. Be nice to see it in other colours (brown or a plum would be nice) but I could only get it in black. On the whole a very good eyeliner. Thanks! 😊❤🎉

    After watching this video I rushed out and purchased Milani stay put eyeliner. I applied it to my waterline as normal and was so very disappointed by the afternoon. It kept transferring to under my eyes and gathering in the tear duct area. I thought I'd found magic and was so very sad. Even though my wet & wild isn't as intense by the end of the day, it doesn't end up all over.

    As a 55 year old, I have long since given up eye liner pencils. They just quit working for me and ended up all over in the outer corners and creases of my eye (my eyelids have become more oily as I've aged). Now I use a very inexpensive, but very effective eye primer (Wet n' Wild) and I use L'oreal Flash Cat Eye waterproof liquid eyeliner. I don't use it on my upper waterline exactly - I apply it actually IN the lash line (though some inevitably does end up on my waterline). It goes on super easy and lasts ALL day without budging. I would love the ease of using a pencil again, especially when I just want a quick makeup job and don't need it to look fabulous or last all day. I'll check out the Milani pencil.

    My eye doctor told me to never put eyeliner on the waterline of the eye as that is where the eye's oil glands are. Putting eyeliner on top of them will block the glands and keep them from being able to secrete the proper amount of oil and lubrication to your eyes. This would in turn cause dry eyes and also make your eyes more susceptible to infection.

    I tried almost all the drugstore liners over the years, recommended by influencers. They all failed. I got the wrong milani, and of course, it failed. The Pixie failed miserable. Not even an hour later, there was flaking all over my cheeks. Went to Sephora and looked at the Marc Jacobs, another one everyone swore by, and almost choked at how much it cost. So didn't get that one. Urban Decay also disappeared and flaked on me. I will give the Milani a try. Thank you!

      @@Debhosking have you tried the Urban Decay 24/7? Im not willing to invest in it. Someone at work said no matter which liner, it has to be set with eye shadow to keep it from bleeding. They didn't know if it would help the flaking. Some of them, I had both happening. Even the L'Oreal

    • @Debhosking
      @Debhosking ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@janem3575 Thank you for getting back to me. 🙂 No, I haven't tried the Urban Decay 24/7, though it is on my list, if I don't find anything else cheaper that works.
      I have been setting with the eye shadow afterwords - where I line very close to/along my upper lashes - please tell me people don't mean powdering onto the upper waterline when they talk about setting with eye shadow! 😱 But, my problem is that anything dark that I put on my upper lid ends up transferring further. So, a dark shadow over the eyeliner smudges onto my hood and looks horrible.
      It's the actual application I'm struggling with as well. I've used normal eyeliner pencils all my life and it's always been so easy, they just glide on - but now I really need to use the non-smudge type, for reasons above, and I'm finding that they just don't go on very easily, or evenly, and then the tiny bits are somehow on my upper and lower lid? The L'Oreal Le Liner arrived yesterday, at someone else's recommendation, but that one does the same thing - though it's not so harsh to apply.
      I guess I'll buy the Milani Stay Put today and keep on trying. 🤷

      Yes, Korean brands have the best pencil and liquid eyeliners (well and also mascaras but that’s a different topic) imo. The Sharp So Simple Pencil Eyeliners from Clio are the best and they’re like $10 with a few different shades. If you haven’t yet, I really recommend them to you!

It’s more pricey that drugstore but lasts and you’re not constantly frustrated with it wear off or transferring elsewhere. Can’t wait to try the q-tip trick to dry my waterline beforehand. Thanks for this great testing video. I had tried every waterproof eyeliner out there high end and drugstore and was constantly annoyed with each purchase.

      I know! I don't wear it on my waterline all the time because of the oil glands and tears, etc. I personally don't think it's good to always have that covered. I like it on my waterline when I want a more dramatic look and I don't like eyeliner above my lashes.

      After hearing about Serena using it was attractive news to me since I perspire a lot when I work, esp
      in the summer in Florida. I use it ABOVE the upper lashline because it's too gummy for me on the waterline itself. It does StayPut better than others!...

    I just knew it would be Milani! I have used this eyeliner for 3 years and it never fails me. I tiightline my upper lid but I have also used it just in my eyelid. Sadly, it is getting difficult to find. I use the color you tested (semi-sweet) and have had to pay extra from a 3rd party seller the last few times I purchased it. I am able to find black but that is too dark for me. Hoping they don't discontinue. 😐🥰

    If you need something that truly lasts, try Inglot AMC Gel Liner. It’s in a pot and you’ll need to apply it with a brush, but that stuff doesn’t budge. I’m a makeup artist and we apply it on the waterline too, no problem! Comes in black and brown and other colours..
