Todays offering looks good - nice colour & I like the brand. I'm going to give this a go today Smile

IToldYouIWasFreaky · 13/12/2021 07:15

I'm actually pleased with eyeliner! I've had this brand before (there was a bronze eyeliner in an M&S calendar a few years ago) and it's nice to have a change from black. Can't wait to try it out today!

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 13/12/2021 07:16

Ooh, nice colour!

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 13/12/2021 07:40

I don't think it's brown though. More charcoal with a bit of gold sparkle.

gingerbubs · 13/12/2021 07:53

So, er, would anyone be able to post a photo of the lower layer so I can fit them all back in the box? Stupidly took them out to swap them to the top and now can't work out how they all go back in Grin

Happy to oblige! 😁

Thank you!
I love this morning's treat Xmas Smile

AmethystMoonShine · 13/12/2021 08:04

Very pleased with today’s. I have repurchase the Stila brown/bronze one twice now, think it’s called Lionfish…. Or something like that?
Nice not to have another black one. Black hasn’t suited me since I was about 20. I find brown and grey much more flattering. Xmas Smile

LivingDeadGirlUK · 13/12/2021 08:05

I've never worn non black eyeliner but this still looks fairly dark at least so will give it a go.

Helpstopthepain · 13/12/2021 08:14

I’ve never tried non black eye liner and don’t often wear it but think this will suit my colouring.

Talisin · 13/12/2021 08:40

Much nicer than yet another black eyeliner. Unfortunately still not my colour but my mum will like it!

You’re right. It’s sparkly charcoal

HollyHocks13 · 13/12/2021 08:48

Really chuffed with this! Like PP, I love the Stila eyeliner in Lionfish. This colour looks just as nice as so much more flattering than black. I'm hoping to get a few more make up bits now, a nice mascara would be good!

Decaffe · 13/12/2021 09:11

Looks good to me - I've put it on my hand and it isn't smudging at all. Here's how it's supposed to look...

Virtually everything seems to be long and thin in the bottom layer of boxes. Make up brushes, mascara, what else is that shape? Eyeshadow sticks?

H1Drangea · 13/12/2021 09:12

I’m pleased with this !
Had the brown one a couple of years ago which I used a lot ( well , all of it ! )

Lig gloss?
tellmewhentheLangshiplandscoz · 13/12/2021 09:29

> Waves at ginger and thanks late < I did the same, and felt very smug as I'd laid the bottom contents out on the carpet in what I thought was the EXACT layout. What a tool Grin

latedecember1963 · 13/12/2021 09:34

I like the colour of the eyeliner and I agree that it's less harsh than black. I'll try it tomorrow when I see my friend for our annual mince pie meet up.
It's worth £16, bringing our total to £141.93.

IToldYouIWasFreaky · 13/12/2021 09:56

I've got the eyeliner on and I love it! I always wear black as I have a bazillion of them from beauty boxes and advent calendars but actually, the softer colours can be really flattering and nicer for daytime.

MrsWidgerysLodger · 13/12/2021 09:57

Rather liking the eyeliner as an alternative to black. Yesterday's offering is mocking me as I opened a new night cream about a week ago so it's going to have to wait to be opened.

OchonAgusOchonOh · 13/12/2021 10:22

I can't wear black either but have tried this one on this morning and it's nice and soft. I'm a fan of the Stila eyeliners as they really stay put.

U8976532 · 13/12/2021 10:28

Sorry to sound daft, what part of the eye did you use non black eye liner? Would you still put a line on the lid?

OchonAgusOchonOh · 13/12/2021 10:46

That's what I did but you could also try water lining with it. You'd be better off googling it than me trying to describe it as I'd probably confuse youGrin

Really pleased with the eyeliner as it isn't black I had the bronze stila eyeliner and it is very good
