I have a couple of the Laura Mercier cake liners, but have never had great luck with them. I've tried a ton of pencil/gel eyeliners and also had trouble with irritated eyes or smears whenever I've tight lined with them.

However, I recently found my all time favorite eyeliners thanks to another poster on here. They are Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Eyeliner Trios. I love them so much I've bought almost every set (every set comes with a black liner and two other colors). I find they work great for tightlining. I've had zero irritation and they also hardly ever smear (and I have had a life long problem with smearing eyeliner, especially on my lower lids). They are also extremely inexpensive...about $10 for 3 liners.

As an eyeliner junkie, I've tried about every type/brand of eyeliner out there. Since I've bought these, my other two dozen eyeliners haven't been touched. Thank you to the original poster who mentioned these

This is my favorite eyeliner of all. I have used it for a few years and have every color too. It just goes on and stays. The shimmer is SO flattering....not obvious but enhancing. They can be smudged out for a smoky eye or they can be precise.I sightlines.I waterline.I smudge. They never let me down.

I tightline using Fran Wilson's Cake Eyeliner that I bought in a drugstore and apply it with a thin angled paintbrush. I prefer the subtle look tightlining gives me as it appears that I have thicker eyelashes than I really do yet I don't look like I'm using an eyeliner.

I do but only with black eyeliner. IT is the absolute best. Waterproof.

IT No Tug Gel Pencils for me, too! The colors are beautiful. I use the BlackBrown and Navy on the upper kids and Silk Taupe (gorgeous) on the lower lid.

Although I do this every time I apply my eyeliner, I haven't found the perfect product to do it with. I take whatever liner I'm using on the top and smudge in on the water line. Some products last longer than others, but nothing I've found yet has taken HG status.

Forgot to say TU for this rec and the others here.

I use my Benefit bad gal liner and any Urban Decay liner to tight line. They are creamy and soft and have great staying power without smudging.

I like to tightline with a deep, deep blue also.

I've had good luck with Mally's eyeliners and surprisingly, for a really economical one--Jordana's 12 Hour eyeliner.

Evening, mystrion

The dark blue really does make the whites of my eye look more white, unless I mess up the tightlining -- lol.

I appreciate all of the responses and have several choices to try now.

I have the Laura Mercier Marine Blue too and I love it. Takes a little bit of time getting it so it is not too watery and the color is deep but I've stopped lining my lids with a black liner and just doing the Blue Marine tightline on upper lid and a bit of a wing out cat eye at the edges. I've gotten so many complements on my eyes! I have had a problem with occasional smearing if my eyes water which they've been doing a lot lately in the wind and cold. So if I ever finish this pan, LOL, I may try some of the other recs that have been posted.
