Finally Nail Your Cat Eye With One Of These Best Liquid Eyeliners

A makeup product that never goes out of style? Liquid eyeliner. Whether you wanna create a sexy cat eye, a winged look to add a pop to your eyes peeking out from behind your mask, or DIY face art, it's about time that you had a quality liner in your life. That said, there are sooo many out there, and you might feel a bit overwhelmed by the amount of liquid options to choose from. That's why Women's Health rounded up the best liquid eyeliners you can add to cart immediately.

But first, let's get a little more detailed about what to look for in a liquid eyeliner before you make a purchase. Above all, you're going to want a product with a water-resistant formula to avoid smudging, explains Nour Agha, a YSL Beauty National Makeup Artist. "You also should look for a brush that has a precise tip that will guide you for a perfect application. When a brush is thick, long or even too thin, then the application might be a little difficult," she explains. (Noted!) Now, there are so many pen-like options that make it slightly easier if you have a bit of a shakier hand.

And if you're wondering how to apply liquid liner exactly, look no further. "The best way to apply is to tilt your head back looking down at the mirror and pretend that you are connecting the dots with your eyelashes," Agha explains. "Start from the center of the eye and work your way out, then apply the liquid eyeliner on the inner corner of your eye working your way out into the center." And a quick PSA: Never stretch your eye out to apply eyeliner. You don't want to damage your precious lids!

Okay, now that you're caught up on all things eyeliner application, it's time for some shopping inspo. Keep reading for the 20 best liquid eyeliners out there, all according to experts, reviews, and Women's Health favs.
