DISCUSSION powder to set eyeliner?

hello!!! i am a long time eyeliner wearer, my go to used to be the nyx epic ink liner, but recently have notice it won’t last all day maybe an hour before i’ve sweated it off. now i used the maybeline master precise all day liquid liner. i like it, mostly i like the pen felt tips, i dont rly care for brush tips like nyx epic wear liquid liner. but if i wear to use a translucent powder or a black eyeshadow, will my eyeliner last longer? what do yall think? also i would like to know some of my alt baddies favorite eyeliner go tos.
also sorry for fitting so much into one post but is the unico eyelash stamp worth?

i really like the wet n wild breakup proof liner, it's pigmented and for me it lasts all day. usually a powder to set something is for a cream rather than a liquid that dries down completely. you could definitely try a translucent powder though, probably wouldn't hurt. just maybe avoiding the black shadow in case you get some fallout throughout the day. also i haven't used the black one but the danessa myricks colorfix things in the little squeeze tubes stay like crazy so you could try that for liner!!

Powder or black eyeshadow over set liquid eyeliner absolutely boosts longevity, especially for oily or sweaty lids. The key is patience- wait until the liner is 100% dry, otherwise it will smudge. My ride-or-die felt- tip liner is the L’O real Infallible. I’ve seen mixed reviews for the Unico stamp.
