Comparison review: Milani Liquif'eye Metallic Eyeliner Pencil vs ...

This is a comparison review of the Milani Liquif'eye Metallic Eyeliner Pencil, and the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil.  Many reviews have mentioned that the Milani eyeliner is a great inexpensive dupe, so I compared the two side by side.

I have the UD pencil in Zero, and the Milani pencil in black.

Price: Urban Decay - $18, Milani - $5.50

Swatches: As you can see from the swatches, the Milani eyeliner is a darker eyeliner

Pros of the Milani
  • Much cheaper to Urban Decay
  • More pigmented (although apparently UD has a more pigmented black eyeliner called Perversion)
Pros of the UD eyeliner:
  • The Milani eyeliner smudged slightly on my lower line, while the UD did not smudge at all
  • Creamier and easier to apply than the Milani, although the Milani is also very creamy
Notes:
  • Both eyeliners lasted on my top line the same.
  • The Milani eyeliner gets an A+ rating on Temptalia, while the UD eyeliner gets an A rating.
  • Milani products are not sold at all drugstores and may be harder to find

Conclusion: I'm still on a journey to find a cheap eyeliner that doesn't smudge on me! 

Hope you enjoyed this review!

xoxo, K
