Bumping this up rather than starting a new thread for my question below.

Gade is sold on their website and via Amazon. I find it stays on very nicely, even to 3rd day of Yom Tov/Shabbos (if you're careful not to rub). Not 100% but enough so I don't look like the washed out ghost with nothing on my eyes.

I'm seeing it now on Amazon for $16 PLUS $19 shipping! For 1-3 weeks time!

So I'm really thinking of trying something else, but I'd love to hear who found other brands that stay on for 3 days. (Well, actually I won't need that til Pesach but I do like how it stays on over Shabbos!)

Static is very good. Stayed on two days. By third day all my makeup is off. I had false lashes put on so I didn’t look completely ill but other than that, I haven’t found anything that stays on three days.

I'm a big makeup person. (Like rouge level Sephora, dabbled as a mua twenty years ago, full face daily)

I hired makeupbybatya for a simcha almost 4 years ago and impulsively bought her sukiru eyeliner. I otherwise only use higher end brands available at Sephora or department stores.

I find the tip hard to work with, as it's thick and inflexible. I would not be able to get the shape, line, and wing that I prefer with it.

However, the formula is second to none. For yuntif/special occasion shabbos, I make my winged liner with my regular one to get the shape perfect and then trace over it fully with the sukiru. Even the inner corner and wing are perfect three to four days later.

It's not hygienic, and I do not keep other products this long (if they would even last!) but I've had that same liner for almost four years now and it's still going strong. I only use it for yuntif and if I have a shabbos simcha (so not too often) but it works perfectly and hasn't dried out, gotten discolored, or developed a wonky smell. (My daily eyeliner dries out and is replaced every several weeks.)

All this is my long winded way of saying 10/10 recommend lol.
