The pencil I use now to line my top lid is quite creamy and causes my eyelashes to squidge together in a clump. Do you have any recommendations for a good eyeliner for mature eyelids please.

Zoeva Cosmetics do a lovely range,, You can find them on line.. they are based in Germany and have free postage.. Their customer service is brilliant and products arrive within days..

No idea how good but I’m treating myself after Christmas to a soft kohl pencil by V Beckham. Reviews are fantastic. Not cheap though at £32. Maybe I’ll wait for duty free next time out! In the meantime I’ll continue with my dark brown liquid eyeliner by YSL.

I don’t wear eyeliner at all because it just makes my eyes look smaller. I just use mascara…

The Aldi one is amazing.

I use Kohl and line the lower lid

Whoops Rimmel or whatever is on offer I don’t find expensive makes any better at all
Avon is quite good too

Another here for Avon. Really good and stays put.

I line the bottom inner eyelid too BlueBelle with a kohl pencil but as I’ve gotten older only halfway along - outer edge to midpoint. Full line now is aging. (Which I don’t need!)

Poundland. I buy their lipsticks and nail varnish too.

ELF do a great eyeliner, in a white felt tip style pencil. Very cheap in Superdrug.

I've used Urban Decay eyeliner pencils for years, I've tried many others but always go back to them!
They aren't too soft but 'workable', have a range of colours and stay put.. highly recommend.

Rimmel Scandal Eyes.

I’ve tried dozens and this suits me best - I use brown and green these days (every day) as it’s softer than black.

Look Fabulous Forever and Clinique do good eye pencils. They’re the ones I use. Soft but stay in place.

I agree, in fact all their products are 👍🏻

I use a thin line of charcoal coloured eye shadow using a flat angled brush. It can be smudged slightly for a softer look.

I spent a fortune on Prime and Look Fabulous Forever eyeliner when my old tried and trusted Clinique ran out and they're awful. I really wish I'd bought some Avon ones. At least, if they don't suit, they don't cost a lot.

Clinique no longer make the green one that I used to use.

I hope the OP has found a pencil to suit.
