Liquid or Pencil eyeliner?
I use pencil but I'm thinking of using liquid. I never used liquid before.
What do you prefer? Which is easier? What's the difference?

edit::/// Sorry I never realize that there are so many eyeliner forums. pinch.gif

There are other kinds of eyeliner too, like powder and cream.

I don't use eyeliner usually, but I do have a liquid one whistling.gif

LIQUID is like 5180618968018681068916818601061890186x better then pencil.
forreal.

I'd rather use pencil, 'Cause I'm messy. But liquid is funner to use, and easier to use when trying to create art on your face. XD.gif

I use up all the liquid eyeliner before I get a chance to use it on my eyes because I like drawing with it. laugh.gif

So I have to use pencil.

I use either, depends what kind of look I want. Usually just pencil though.

liquid.
once you get used to it, it's really not that tricky
and it stays on longer... in my experience
but when you first start out, make sure you carry q-tips to wipe mistakes off.

i always use pencil on the bottom of my eyes though...
not sure you can use liquid for that.

Pencil. I've seen liquid eyeliner on me and i t's not pretty.. I have hardly any eyelid so it's hard to put on... and it's kind of messy.. but that might be just because I don't know how to use it pinch.gif

For everyday wear, kohl pencil. For plays or or clubbing or special events, probably liquid.

Liquid eyeliner feels so much more cooler, but I'd have to go with the old fashioned eye liner.

For everyday use, crayon (pencil) is the easiest.

Liquid is nice, but it is INCREDIBLY messy if you get it wet or cry. It's disgusting. Worse than mascara. And if you mess up, it's hard to clean up if you're in a car or something.

I've never tried liquid but I've tried pencil
I heard that liquid was better in some ways but can get really really messy pinch.gif

agreed. be prepared with q-tip using liquid eyeliner. i use stila's smudge pot, like a gel form of eyeliner with an eyeliner brush you can buy both at sephora. mac has a similar thing called fluidline. its much easier because liquid dries too quickly.

never used liquid before
and because of that
pencil is better!! hahaha!!
Girthy
fluidline is amazing

LIQUID! I have so much fun with it.

crayon/pencil is most convenient for everyday wear. liquid is nice for special occasions when going for a more dramatic effect. it's just way too messy/harder to put on/straight up complicated haha

I personally like liquid best because... I don't know, I just think it looks better than pencil. And it's actually easier for me to apply than pencil shrug.gif

Yeah; I usually use pencil then put powder on. I only use liquid when I'm drawing designs or whatnot for special occasions. I put powder on top of that, too. XD.gif

I always use pencil, but I'm thinking about trying liquid for special occasions.
