Okay so this is kind of embarrassing...
I just can't put eyeliner on properly at all! For pencil ones it barely leaves a mark and with liquid ones I have no precision..
Any tips??
(I'm good with every other kinds of makeup tho)

Try cream pen liners, they apply like a pencil but are creamier, more pigmented and normally set so they last a long time. My favourite is Maybelline Master Drama, $8.

Or for liquid liner, get a liner pen! It's like a thin felt marker so you have more control. Stila Stay All Day, $32 or Maybelline Master Precise, $8 are my favs.

And last but not least, gel liner. You use an angled brush which gives you so much control. Gel isn't too wet like liquid liner, and it's very long lasting. Essence, $2 or Maybelline Eyestudio, $7 are awesome.

Hope this helps!

Dang Vanessa let ya know what's up lol. I use gel (maybelline eye studio) and a angled brush (essence) or a felt tip (maybelline master).

I recommend the gel eyeliner by Maybelline... It comes with it's own brush and it's the only eyeliner I use. And if you want to make it even more dramatically black you can take an eyeliner brush with black eyeshadow ( I use black from the Naked 2 palette ) and go over it.. makes it so much more dramatic and darker.
