Can somebody recommend me an eyeliner and mascara that is 100% completely smudgeproof? Every day I look in the mirror at work and see “panda” eyes staring back at me. Any recommendations would be welcome.
Thank you.
I can't recommend a mascara, but the Bellapiere gel eyeliner I bought recently in a set, has been pretty indestructible, plus the nicest eyeliner I've used.
Lancôme waterproof mascara has never let me down and I have been using it for years. Recently I tried benefit They're Real. Avoid as it smudges dreadfully.
For eye liner try Kiko water resistant liner, never moves until you want to remove it. Very reasonable price too. Kiko Super Colour Eyeliner £6.90
I find tubing mascaras to be the only ones that have never smudged on me. And they come off without leaving a trace of panda eye. This is the one I've been using for over a year:
PS- bought one from Boots yesterday. Bought a £4 eye pencil with it and got a free gift which is absolutley amazing. Eyeliner, eyeshadow quad, mascara and nail varnish all full sized. Used them for the works' party and am very impressed with all except the mascara, which gave me, yep, panda eyes.
Been wondering what to spend my Boots gift card on, now I can go look for eyeliners and mascara, hope they have dark grey, black is too dark for me because my hair is white!
I recommend using the Laura Mercier secret brightening powder under your eyes, this stops ur eyeliner from smudging. i dont know how but it just does! might be pricey but it lasts a very long time as you only need a small amount.
Clinique Lash Power, a tubing one, the original one, never flakes on me. Avoid the feathering version, which did. Available in black (which is a grey black imho) and brown.

I would have recommended exactly the same two things if dragonrapide hadn't got there first!
The waterproof Lancome mascaras are great - never move and also do a good job of making the lashes look great - but I have been amazed by the Kiko eyeliners and the long lasting eyeshadow sticks. They really are fantastic smudgeproof, budgeproof products and great value for money.

Based on recommendations here, I have just ordered Kiko eyeliners and eyeshadow sticks so let's hope they are more water-resistant and stay on better than my current ones!

I so want to order the Kiko liner but I can't see it in black. I suppose the closest to black would be the charcoal colour.
Eyeko's black magic tubing mascara is fantastic. Doesn't smudge, doesn't dry out, superb little curved brush. Wouldn't be without it now.
I recently got a tester size of Pur Volume Vixen mascara in a beauty advent calendar and it's bloody brilliant. Highly recommended. Great coverage and no smudging. I've bought a full size on the back of it.
I also like the Eyeko ones. I like the one that has a guitar shaped brush. Very, very black.
I've used Mac Powerpoint pencil liners since I was 15. It's the only one I've used that doesn't run everywhere on me making me look like a Panda... exception is sometimes in a bar if I'm sweating, but that's not an everyday thing for me.
