stila Stay All Day Smudge & Set Waterproof Gel Liner — Retractable Black, 12‑Hour Wear, Waterline‑Safe

stila Stay All Day® Smudge & Set Waterproof Gel Liner is a retractable, gel-based eyeliner pencil that glides on smoothly, sets in seconds, and delivers up to 12 hours of waterline-safe, no-budge color for lining, smudging and smoky looks.

This pencil combines the precision of a liner with the blendability of a cream shadow. The gel texture offers immediate pigment payoff in one swipe while allowing a few seconds of working time to smudge or soften edges. Once it sets, the formula resists water, sweat and fading so your eye look stays consistent from morning to night.

How does the formula behave when I apply it?

The gel-based formula glides without skipping and delivers rich color instantly. You have a brief window to blend or smudge the line before the product locks down into a long-lasting finish.

• Easy-glide gel texture for smooth application
• Immediate, intense pigment in a single pass
• Short work-time for blending before it sets
• Sets quickly to a fade- and sweat-resistant finish

Can I use this on the waterline and for tightlining?

Yes—this pencil is formulated to be waterline-safe and performs well for tightlining to enhance lash definition. Its creamy consistency deposits color without tugging, making it suitable for close-to-lash application.

• Waterline-safe formulation for inner-eye use
• Smooth glide reduces pulling on delicate eyelids
• Builds depth along lash line for natural or dramatic effect
• Retractable design keeps the tip ready without sharpening

What looks can I create with one pencil?

This single pencil works as a precise liner, a blended smoky shadow, or a smudged, lived-in edge. Use a fingertip or brush to diffuse the line before it sets to transform a crisp liner into a soft, sultry wash of color.

• Fine lines for defined, graphic eyes
• Smudged edges for smoky, blended looks
• Tightline and waterline use for fuller-lash illusion
• Layerable for increased intensity or subtle depth

How durable is the wear time during a long day?

The formula is engineered to remain put for up to 12 hours with resistance to fading and smudging. It holds fast through normal day-to-day conditions like humidity and mild perspiration, keeping color stable from application to removal.

• Up to 12 hours of continuous wear
• Waterproof and sweat-resistant finish
• Fade-proof color payoff that stays true
• Easy removal with makeup remover or oil-based cleanser

Who is this for? If you want a single, fuss-free pencil that can deliver crisp liner, buildable intensity, and smudgeable shadow effects—while also standing up to humidity and long hours—this gel liner is made for you. It suits makeup lovers who need reliable waterline performance, artists who like to blend on the fly, and anyone seeking a retractable, travel-ready tool to create everything from subtle definition to bold smoky eyes. As with any eye product, close-eye users should follow safety guidance and remove with a suitable cleanser.
