Long lasting kohl eye pencil

I am going through a phase of wearing black kohl eyeliner on the bottom inside rim of my eyes, I am currently using a lancome one which is nice to use and lasts quite well, I would happily buy this again but before I do I wondered if there were any other ones to be recommended?

    Hi, I use the Clnique Quick Eyes one which is a twist up so you don't have to sharpen and it lasts me quite a while, they also do a good range of colours.

    I've used quick eyes before, I had forgotten about them, is it the ones with the smudger at the other end?, think I had a very dark brown and it was lovely, thanks for reminding me:)

    I use the Maybelline one (long green and thin) it stays put really well and has a realy dense colour.

    I've never tried it on the lower rims though as it makes my eyes look very small but on the normal lash line it withstands everything from sitting in the hot sun to gym.

    My favorite one is i-line by new <id cosmetics i use black as well inside my rim it really is the darkest i have found. DD uses the body shop and wont use anything else. I also like one by honeypot.
  • Urban Decay 24/7 khol pencil always gets good reviews. I've never used it before, but when I've watched makeup vids on youtube, many of the artists use this pencil & the results look excellent.

    My first choice is definitely the Urban Decay 24/7, it's soft to apply but stays on well and it's easy to get different effects with it too. It'll stay on as a solid line but it also smudges well to create a smokey effect. I usually buy from ebay as it's cheaper.
    However, at the minute I'm using a loreal one which I got when they were doing the £2 off vouchers in Boots and thats pretty good aswell, lasts all day.
    Ths signature is out of date because I'm too lazy to update it... :o
