eyeliners?
 

ladies (and maybe gents), can anyone suggest an eyeliner that doesn't smudge? i wear it a lot for work and by 5 o'clock when i'm finished i end up looking like a panda... i really need help on this, its not a great look when you're serving the public

Re: eyeliners?
 

It seems that this is a problem for lots of ladies........Cosmopolitan message board has a few requests for non smudge eyeliner.....one writer recommends the Barry M tange...reporting that is very black and stays put all day/night.
Don't know if this helps Shaz.
My days of putting eyeliner on are long gone.......I can't see without my glasses to put it on, my glasses get in the way so I gave up!

i don't tend to plaster it on, i only put it on the top, it just ends up all over, i'll google that brand, thanx Marg x

Re: eyeliners?
 

you are most welcome Shaz......at least it isn't one of the most expensive brands.
I used to use Rimmel cake eyeliner.....you could use as mascara too.......it was one of those 'spit and brush' jobbies.

Re: eyeliners?
 

was just looking at the Barry M website, it is quite cheap, i'm off to see if Boots is open in the morning :D

Re: eyeliners?
 

I hope it meets with your approval Shaz.

Barry M - The most colourful name in cosmetics

i'm sure it will, or i hope it will, nothing worse than looking like i've gone to sleep with my make-up on

Since you have had blepharitis, I would choose with caution.
My favorite site about product ingredients is -

Guide to Less Toxic Products
extract-
Mainstream eyeliners contain carcinogenic coal tar colours, hormone-disrupting TEA, and PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone). PVP is an allergen and there is some evidence that it cause cancer in lab animals. The US government has received numerous reports of allergic reaction to eyeliner.

another good company is this one......
Cosmetics and Makeup – ELF Cosmetics UK – Eyes Lips Face
buy online.......while I don't use much make up these days the people I know who do say this is really good quality for the price. I cannot vouch for their eyeliner, as to whether it is smudge proof or not.

Having said all that the Barry M stuff looks good. I'm sure that superdrug sell that brand.

Superdrug and Boots sell it Marg

Re: eyeliners?
 

thanx for that Margaret

Re: eyeliners?
 

As a fella.... I'd say use none at all.

Beauty is within, not a result of the gunk you plaster on. :)

Re: eyeliners?
