If you have oily eyelids, opting for a waterproof, budge-free liquid eyeliner formula is non-negotiable, which is why Pollara is a huge fan of this formula from NYX. “I love these liners because they’re waterproof, super pigmented, and glide on incredibly easily,” she says. At under $10, this liquid liner can rival more expensive options on the market and has a cult following of its own. “For fierce precision, this liner is an absolute must,” says Jolie Greenstone, a beauty enthusiast. To get the perfect wing, Greenstone likes to use the fine tip at the center of her eye on her upper lid and draw a line toward the outer corner, slightly winging it out. “It really accentuates my eyes like no other,” she says.
- Pros: Under $10 and can be found at your local drugstore
- Cons: The pigment is heavy and thick, so it takes a minute to dry down
- Applicator: Felt tip
- Shades: 6, including Dark Chocolate, Milk Chocolate and Marshmallow
