    I am just about finished my Kat Von D Tattoo Liner but as much as I love the product, I don't want to purchase from that brand anymore.

    Any recommendations for a felt tip liner? The KVD one seems to be a brush of sorts, so I find it more flexible than other pen liners. I have tried Rimmel Scandeleyes & Soap and Glory Supercat, but the nibs are too hard.

    I've heard good things about the Chanel one, it seems to be a brush too.

    Out of curiosity, why don’t you want to purchase from the brand anymore?

    Just not on board with supporting someone who uses her platform to promote anti-vaccination. I know that's her and not the brand, but there's plenty of other companies to choose from so that's what I'm doing now.

    Ah I hear you on binning KVD. I finished her foundation in December and ahm done wi it now. I loved the highlighters and colourful lipsticks.

    I love felt eye liners and didn't actually have much success wi the KVD one. But I'm finding the Sephora brand eyeliner fantastic. I have watery eyes and the KVD one would smudge, but this one lasts nearly all day and is very black.

    I've not tried it personally but I've heard good things about the Hourglass liner - its pricey enough though.

    Don't have a replacement to recommend as I haven't got round to getting one yet but for what it's worth, the tattoo liner has gone downhill anyway. Will be keeping an eye on this thread!

    I've heard alot of people compare the Stila Stay All Day liner to the Kat Von D one but I haven't tried it myself.

    Laura Kennedy of the Irish Times raves about the Chanel version - pricey but meant to be amazing. Shes well worth a follow on instagram.

    That's where I saw the Chanel one for the first time! She's definitely a beauty journalist I would trust.

    I prefer Lancome or MAC. They can last all day long and easy to apply.

    I've recommended it elsewhere in this forum recently enough but for this kind of applicator the NYX Epic Ink is fantastic, really really black and does not budge even on my very oily eyelids and in temps of 30C+. It's the same kind of nib as Tattoo Liner but I find it much better, Tattoo Liner wasn't black enough for my liking.
