13 Glitter Eyeliners Guaranteed to Dazzle

Want to shake up your eye makeup? Look no further than glitter eyeliners. The beauty of these eye-catching, shimmer eyeliners is that they can carry a whole makeup look on their own, offering a whole lot of glam for minimal effort. So if you don’t have the time or patience for a full-on glitter eyeshadow look, don’t sweat it—these will get the job done in a single, super simple application, no blending or clean-up required.

That said, not all glitter makeup products are created equal. If you’re going for a heavily pigmented look with loads of drama, you might want to opt for a liquid liner. Want a more natural eye look—or as natural as glitter gets, at least? Then opt for a pencil for tightlining along your lash line.

Whatever eyeliner look you go with, don’t forget to stock up on makeup remover to take it all off at the end of the day. With that, consider these 13 best glitter eyeliners for every preference and vibe.

If you're into metallics—like the universally flattering rose-gold—look no further than this liquid eyeshadow. While you can definitely find that shade, the long-lasting, flake-free formula also comes in other bold metallic shades with just the right amount of sparkle.

10. Best Smudge-proof Glitter Eyeliner

BEAUTY FOR REAL I-Line 24-7 Eyeliner

This gel liner gives you the best of both worlds, with a gel formula for a creamy and easy application, as well as impressive staying power. Once it sets (which takes a few seconds), it'll stay put wherever the day takes you—whether you're going for a run or kicking back by the pool.

11. Best Glitter Eyeliner for Your Waterline

KULFI Underlined Kajal Clean Waterproof Long-Wear Eyeliner

J.CAT BEAUTY Rock 'n' Glitz Liquid Eyeliner

Available in a vibrant array of colors, this liquid eyeliner has tiny sparkles that catch and refract light. It also features a flexible, super-precise brush to create every wing and shape your heart desires, and it won't feather, smudge, or smear once it sets.

13. Easiest to Apply Glitter Eyeliner

The applicator is soaked with pigment while dispensing just the right amount every time you swipe, thanks to its felt-tip design (plus the chunky handle) that make it easier for newbies to wield than skinny pens.
