The Body Shop Eye Definer Pencil

If you asked me to name 5 things I'd take to a desert island, eye liner would be number 5. It is the single most important thing in my make up bag, it characterises and defines my whole wardrobe. Clothing has been discarded to the floor because it didn't go with the eye liner style of the day. And I've used every brand, from the cheap to the bank emptying expensive. Currently there are 5 colours: black, rich brown, taupe, white, and french navy. The body shop claim: "A fade-resistant, intense colour pencil for outlining and defining the eyes. They are soft enough to enable smooth application yet firm enough to be smudge-resistant. ...  Read the complete review

I have been a liner lover since I was a teenager, I think all teens, well ok most teens, go through that stage at some point. I just haven't grown out of it though!

Price: £7.30 From: The Body Shop For: Outlining and defining the eyes The pencil is just the usual eye pencil type, which you sharpen, rather than any of the more 'high-tech' pencils like the self sharpening ones etc. It's really easy to use.

It's well-pigmented so the colour goes on nice and intense, but then you can tone it down by ...  Read the complete review
