Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner - 0.016 fl oz - Ulta Beauty

This eyeliner was thankfully my FOREVER eyeliner for the last decade and some; didn't smudge after a long messy day at work (in healthcare), and with monolids these were stellar. Easy to remove at end of day without stubborn smudging. However, my most recent purchase of this eyeliner in the black (and I tried them all to make sure it wasn't a one-off mistake) was not the same formula at all. Smudging within the morning, difficult to remove at night (very stubborn smudgy..) It also does not look the same when applied. It doesn't dry matte like it used to; it has a foil-y sheen like Fenty's liquid liner, and my same setting shadow I've used for the last 5 years doesn't sink as well into the liner either. I hope they bring back the original formula please!!! In the meantime I unfortunately will have to find another liquid black liner :(

Stay All Day was my gold standard for liquid eyeliner. I didn't want to use anything else. It made bold, crisp lines effortlessly that lasted all day and then came off easily and gently at night with micellar water. Then my pen ran out and I ordered a replacement a few months ago from the Stila site, and it just was not the same. It didn't adhere to my skin as well and it went on kinda transparent and needed numerous layers to look dark and solid. Then that pen ran out and I ordered another one last week, and it seems different yet again. I still need to go over it numerous times to get a dark black line, but now suddenly micellar water does practically nothing to remove it and I end up needing to use harsher products on my eyes to get it off before bed. I still use Stay All Day often, but I'm starting to experiment with other brands again because I've become a bit disappointed with my favorite eyeliner. I want my old Stay All Day back again 😭 I'm not sure if I'm just getting weird batches (from the official site), or if they've reformulated it into something that doesn't work as well for me. It's still a great eyeliner once I'm done struggling to put it on--I get compliments on it regularly still and it stays put all day as advertised, but it went from easy to frustrating in both application and removal.

Wanted to love this. Although it goes on easily, it doesnt stay put. my eyelids were consistently smudged, hust in the course of the day (and i have contacts, so dont rub my eyes.) Having to trade in for an eyeliner that actually stays in place.

I was trying to find a product to replace a liquid eye liner that I loved, but this is not it. As soon as you put it on, it's so runny it goes everywhere and is hard to clean off.

I bought this eyeliner to wear to a celebration of life. I knew there would be a lot of tears. It performed even better than I hoped. It made it through the entire celebration, a float down the river and into the night without budging!

Don't think it's worth the dollars. Doesn't stay on my lids. They are very oily.

I have been using the black eyeliner for years and I love it. So I decided to try the midnight and the intense smoky quartz and they're both horrible. They don't apply a solid line and sometimes it seems the brush tip is removing more than it's applying, when I'm trying to fill the patches the liner left. The black is still the best eyeliner I've ever used, but I won't waste my money on any others ever again.

The tip does not flow enough liquid

This is a go to for me. It is easy to use and make a thick or thin line. I often use this as the base and use other powders and shadows to increase the intensity of the eyeliner.

Just purchased this eyeliner and it smudged immediately. I am returning this product.

I love this eyeliner! It truly is waterproof! I was able to count on it staying on when swimming with my grandchildren

It's an expensive liner for something that gives you the most minimalistic line. I had asked for something that was a little thicker, but obviously this isn't it my mistake for not opening the box and trying it out.

Best eye liner ever and it stays on all day! I tell everyone about it.

i love the product

did me so incredibly dirty, picked up the makeup as i was applying making my normal wing impossible. looked good on my hand in the store but i've had it for two days (stored tip down mind you) and this is my second use. absolutely will never purchase again.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I bought this eyeliner. I love the ease of application. The expresso color pops on my eyes. I will be back for more.

The employees were very helpful

Did not glide on smooth

Did not like

As someone bad at winged eyeliner this is the perfect liner for me! So easy to use!
