Beauty: Eyeliners that hold up against the struggle

A PSA for any busy women enjoying her eyeliner

So we have Pesach (Passover) coming up shortly and well, it goes late into the night and although we would never want admit it, there are at times, moments of listlessness and lethargy during the seder/im (ceremonial dinner). On top of the full day’s (or weeks) prep; cleaning, cooking, kids and the actual evening’s unfurling, the last thing that I want to worry about is my habitual eye rubbing which inevitably results in my eye makeup caking in my tear ducts (a personal eyeliner woe) or finding it rubbed around my face- panda style.

So to help you worry about one less thing, we set out to test which eyeliners would hold up at events such as these- leaving us looking fab even when we arn’t feeling it. To begin with we tested an example within each of the low, medium and higher price ranges, but we hope to continue this exploration of the accessory-must as they cross our path.
