Dark brown pencil eyeliner

7 replies

Whyarethebestnamestaken · 19/07/2017 14:23

I am currently tending to use felt pen liner on top for tightlining and dark brown eyeshadow on bottom to accentuate lower lash line but would like to try eyeliner pencil. I don't want a made up look but more a natural not wearing make up look. I am 65 and not used to wearing much make up.

Do you have any ideas which ones to choose that would be soft and not drag please. High Street prices please preferably.

Thank you

I use no7 brown stay perfect
Sharp line, soft and shines a little bit no sparkle
Really chic and dark

This is the best eyeliner I've ever found, goes on so smoothly, gives a lovely finish, lasts ages, comes off easily, incredible value. I keep two spare in case it ever sells out!

Only issue I've had is in the hot weather as the led is very soft and has been getting messy when I've sharpened it but it's still an amazing product and and can be a clean tight line or nicely smudged.

Because of the sharpening issue, I got this last week, which sadly doesn't come in brown, but I got the raw grey and it's a really usable colour. It's a twist up one, not a pencil. www.superdrug.com/GOSH/Gosh-The-Ultimate-Eyeliner-Raw-Grey-2/p/613953

Anne, you might want to pop the eyeliner in the fridge for a bit before sharpening it.

Anne, Thank you that is the sort of thing I am looking for but not sure if it is dark enough from the photo. I will pop in Superdrug and have a look.

I use Clinique Quickliner for eyes, in roasted coffee.
Just bought Nars in Via Martelli, which is lovely, and stays on forever.

Espresso - Elizabeth Arden is very good. Sadly I must have dropped mine and whenever I tried to sharpen it the lead bits fall out! Also like Tarte gel liner pen. In fact I prefer the gel pens to the pots as they tend to dry up quick.
