Novice eyeliner help

If you want to do liquid for a cat eye. I would look for one that has a felt tip. Like the liquid liner from Stila. Might not be the best option but look it up if you don't know what I'm talking about.

And I would probably get a oil based make up remover. And just sit down and spend a afternoon practicing. I use avocado oil occasionally to removed eye make up. Use a cotton pad.

I an a very big fan of Mally' starlight pencils. They are sold on Ulta, QVC, Amazon, etc.

Oh also, I'm in Canada and only have access to Canadian drug stores and sep hora. I'm VIB at sephora and happy to spend some coin on a good liner.

Hah, I just posted this in the Canadians thread, but I love the Annabelle kohl eyeliner pencils at Shoppers (or at least they were still there 3 years ago). They're soft enough to smudge, but hold a decent point, and have pretty good staying power if you go over them with a matching eyeshadow and an angled brush (I do this anyways because it helps soften out the line and hide any shakiness!). They're pretty cheap too.

Honestly I'd go with gel. I find that liquid is harder to work with, and I don't like pencils for a cat eye because if they are the push up ones they get too dull to really draw on a nice thin line, and if they aren't then you have to continually sharpen them which I personally find to be kind of annoying and wasteful. I like Bobbi Brown but the Maybelline eye something something in the little pot is a great cheaper option to try it out, and the brush it comes with is decent.

If you feel shaky then I definitely vote a gel liner with a nice long brush you can steady in your hand. Or the felt tip liquid liners allowing you to hold like a pencil and have a steady hand.
