No. 18: CoverGirl Outlast Smoothwear All-Day Eyeliner, $6.99

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 8.2*


Why it's great: "This is my No. 1 favorite eyeliner. It's not too dark but it's dark enough to make my eyes look sexy. [Espresso is] a rich brown [that's] good for fair-skinned girls. It stays on all day so you don't have to worry."

No. 17: Rimmel London Professional Liquid Eye Liner, $5.99

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 8.3*


Why it's great: "First the price: dirt cheap, relatively speaking. I like the super-slim application brush; it gives me more control, and I like the consistency, which also makes application easier. After MUCH practice, I've gotten pretty adept at applying this."

No. 16: Almay Intense I-Color Play Up Liquid Eyeliner, $7.49

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 8.5*


Why it's great: "I've tried the amethyst and the topaz. Both are easy and apply a beautifully precise line if you keep a few simple steps in mind: Line in short strokes, and wait a minute or so before blending or applying mascara. [It's] a nice addition to an eye wardrobe!"
