Best eyeliner ever--Two Faced:

Seriously amazing! It's a liquid eyeliner that goes on like a smooth marker (not goopy like other liquid liners). It's true black and lasts until you remove it. Love this stuff!

Allow us older adults to wear what we deem appropriate. You may continue to ponder the meaning of life's purpose for eyeliner on your own.

Prefer powder. It is hard to see and control the pencil. Urban Decay.

Love Urban Decay glide-on eye pencils. I get mine at Sephora, but I've also seen them at Macy's.

I use a creamy eyeliner with a liner brush. I like Smashbox brand.

For the same reason, I also like the powder eyeliner by Trish McEvoy.

50+ women recommend your eyeliner, I am looking for a smooth appearance and application over these aging eyelids. I would prefer a pencil, but am willing to try new products.
