Top 5 Eyeliners
Whether it’s a slick black line, that sexy cat eye, or a bright colour to add some pop, eyeliner is every girl’s best friend. Like that perfect white tee, you can slip into the routine of always sliding on the same liner every day and always look perfectly put together. Then, there are those days you want to add a little colour to your basic look and wham! Hit it with some metallic bronze and your eyes will sparkle. Nothing says magic like the perfectly matched eyeliner. Trust me. Here’s my round up for top 5 eyeliners.
1. Charlotte Tilbury - Pillow Talk Eyeliner | 2. Chanel - Stylo Ombre et Contour Liner | 3. Charlotte Tilbury - Matte & Metallic Double Ended Eyeliner - “Hollywood Exagger-Eyes” | 4. Urban Decay - 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil in shade “Double Life” | 5. Hourglass- 1.5MM Mechanical Gel Eye Liner- in shade “Obsidian”
Charlotte Tilbury’s Pillow Talk Eyeliner is creamy and matte all at once. Her iconic Pillow Talk collection boasts a whole series of colours, but I am obsessed with her smoky berry-brown shade. I glide on a slim line of this neutral, yet intense liner and I give that everyday look a little pep.
Then of course there is Chanel. Oh Chanel! The Stylo Ombre et Contour Liner in shade 12 is everything from kohl and liner to an eye shadow! It’s a 3-in-1 and is intense. Perfect for contouring, shaping, and easy to use. Pro tip: I always fill the inside of my upper lashline to give that intense full lash look.
Charlotte Tilbury - Matte & Metallic Double Ended Eyeliner - in shade “Hollywood Exagger-eyes is a serious mouthful and eyeful! Part of the Eye Color Magic Collection, this liner emphasizes your eye colour like magic. They have a whole legend to explain which colour to buy depending on the colour of your eye, and of course, I nabbed the metallic champagne and matte black combo to make my eyes bigger, brighter and wider looking. Water-proof, long-lasting and infused with emollient oils and natural waxes, Charlotte Tilbury really outdid herself this time!
Ever wish you could live a double life? Well, with Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil in the Double Life shade, your wish is Urban Decay’s demand! It’s an award-winning liner for a reason… the colour glides on silky and ultra-creamy and will not budge for 24 long-lasting hours. They come in satin, matte, and metallic finishes and they have probably over a dozen colours to choose from. If you can’t decide, well, buy them all!
The Hourglass 1.5MM Mechanical Gel Eye Liner delivers precision when it comes to that perfect line. Your perfect look is a click (or two) away with this stunning liner. I grabbed the Obsidian shade and use it when I want that super clean, super thin liner, especially for the cat-eye look.
