stila Stay All Day Smudge & Set Waterproof Gel Eyeliner — Black, Retractable 12‑Hour Long-Wear

stila Stay All Day® Smudge & Set is a waterproof, retractable gel eyeliner pencil that glides on smoothly, sets quickly, and holds intense color for up to 12 hours.

This gel-based eyeliner combines the precision of a pencil with the blendability of a cream—ideal for everything from tightlining and waterline definition to smoky, smudged looks. The formula delivers rich pigment in one swipe, is waterline-safe and waterproof, and sets down fast so your look stays put through a full day. Retractable for convenience, it gives you time to smudge before locking in a fade-proof finish.

How long will the liner stay put on my eyes?

The liner is formulated to set in seconds and deliver up to 12 hours of wear without budging. It resists fading, smudging, and sweat when applied as directed, keeping your lines crisp or your smudged look intact throughout the day.

• Up to 12 hours of continuous wear
• Waterproof and waterline-safe
• Fade-proof and sweat-resistant finish
• Sets quickly to minimize transfer

Can I use this pencil for tightlining, waterline, and smoky eyes?

Yes—its gel texture allows precise lining, while still being blendable for smoky effects. You can tightline along the lash line or apply to the waterline for added depth; smudge with a fingertip or brush before it sets to create shadow-like results.

• Precision lining along upper and lower lashes
• Safe for use on the waterline
• Smudgeable before setting for smoky effects
• Works as both liner and shadow base

What application tips help achieve the best results?

Start with a steady hand and short strokes along the lash line for a smooth, even color payoff. Smudge while still soft for a blended look; allow the product to set fully for long-lasting definition. Keep the cap closed between uses to maintain the pencil’s texture.

• Use short, controlled strokes for crisp lines
• Blend with finger or brush before it sets for smoky styles
• Apply to clean, dry lids for best adhesion
• Retractable design avoids sharpening and waste

How do I remove it at the end of the day?

Because the formula is long-wearing and waterproof, use an oil-based or waterproof eye makeup remover to dissolve the pigment gently. Soak a cotton pad, hold it on the lid for a few seconds, then wipe away with gentle movements to avoid tugging the delicate eye area.

• Use oil-based or waterproof removers
• Press gently with a soaked pad before wiping
• Avoid harsh rubbing to protect lashes and skin
• Follow with your regular cleanser if desired
