Eyeliner lovers, rejoice!
I am always super excited when I come across a true beauty bargain. These Collection 2000 felt tip liners as exactly that. At £2.99, they come in 4 great colours, including black, packed with pigment, easy to apply and very long lasting. I bought the blue, teal and purple ones as they make a nice difference to the classic black colour. All 3 shades are very flattering and easy to wear and give just enough pop of colour to liven up your make up look. They have a slightly glossy finish which looks elegant and understated. The felt tips are a lovely elongated shape that makes for an effortless application and perfect for drawing a flick.
If you are an eyeliner novice, try and apply the pen as closely to the eye lashes as possible and let it glide over them. Worry less about drawing a perfect line and more about filling in all the gaps between the eye lashes. Short strokes work best if you find it hard to control the line. The pen will do the rest for you. For youthful eye lift effect, end the line a centimetre above the outside corner of your eye and draw a flick upwards. Ladies with hooded, deep set eyes or small eyelids should aim at drawing a thin line to avoid making their eyes appear smaller. The larger the visible part of your eyelids is when your eyes are open- the thicker the line you can get away with. For elongated feline looking eyes, start the line 2/3rds from the inner eye socket and make it thicker towards the outer corner.
Lastly, the Collection 2000 Extreme 24hr Felt Tip Liners are very long lasting and you may struggle to remove them with some make up removers. I use Bioderma Crealine H2O to take them off and it works well. Another great alternative would be an oil-based eye make up remover.
