Let's talk liners! If you've seen my Instagram (Liner Highlight too) you'll know I've an eclectic taste when it comes to pens & pencils - both lip & eye. They can transform any makeup look in minutes, especially if you get creative. My one abiding beauty habit is repurposed lip liners. They give great effect with minimal effort - take Tilbury's Pillow Talk Intense for example (seen above)
Pillow Talk Intense is a deep tawny brown that I've been unable to replicate in any number of eyeliners I've bought. Designed to apply smoothly & stay put on your lips throughout the day, it's a tear proof, sweat proof beauty on the eyes too, right?
My waterline here is Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On liner in Torch. These liners aren't called 'Glide On' for nowt, they apply like a dream with zero drag, which is ideal for those with more lid to cover (me) I have them in every mála and drawer I have, because I can trust them to just work. Torch a is burnished orange that changes my eye colour completely

Top Tip when water & tight lining is to have your pencils SHARP! I have a cheap as chips Primark double parer that I keep in my liner drawer at all times. I would give an outer extremity for Ms Tilbury to release an automatic liner pencil - in my wildest fantasies she takes a leaf from the Smashbox Always Sharp design book - but, until that time, I sharpen slowly and methodically. Trust me, if the only thing stopping you from lining your waterline or your tight line is being squeamish about a pencil in your eye, sharpen them to POINTS. It seems counter-intuitive but trust me.

Tell me, have you repurposed your liners yet?
