I have no idea how this continues, every time I use a felt tip pen it dries before I even finish doing my eyeliner. I’m not doing anything crazy either. I tested 10. Ten different eyeliners. They all do the same thing. Are there good liners that will NOT dry in one use? I’m not pushing hard either, so don’t try to say that’s the problem.
Does it really dry up? Or does the tip get clogged with eyeshadow?
How are you storing them? It’s meant to be on their side. You could do yup down but never tip up. The CP ones have been great in my extra experience but maybe a dip felt tip liner would suit you best.
I strongly dislike felt tip liners. Brush tip liners for the win
I’ve had a similar problem pretty consistently, where they dry, and no amount of shaking, pressing the tip, shaking with the cap up, or wiping it off seems to help for long. That’s why I use felt tip dip pot liquid liners, but if you wanna keep using the pens, I’ve heard that the one by House Labs or whatever the brand is by Lady Gaga is really good and doesn’t dry out, but I haven’t tried for myself yet. I’m actually also looking for a good new liner, so please post if you find one that works for you!

I have one from tarte I think it’s the maneater one, with cheetah spots on it that I’ve had for a few months and it’s still going good. On the other side I have the colored tarteist ones and the burgundy one dried really fast so don’t buy that lol
Might not be helpful, but MAC eyeliner has never failed me, I used the liquid last one. It was always reliable, although it’s not a felt/brush tip.
