So I got a Sephora gift card for Christmas and I want to spend part of it on eyeliner. Problem is, I don't really know anything about it. I've never really owned any XD.gif So help a sista out! Liquid vs pencil: which is easier to use for n00bs like me? What brand would you recommend?

Yeah that should be fine. It's all personal preference really. If you find you have troubles with an angled brush you might want to try more of a pointed tip brush like the MAC 209 or 210.

Oh and between the 263 and 266, I'd go with the 263 because I've heard it's stiffer and smaller, making it easier to work with gel eyeliners. I have the 266 from a holiday brush set and it's way too fluffy and too big to properly apply gel eyeliner.
