#JuneBBC 1.Favourite Eyeliner

Hey guys so after hearing about the exciting June Beauty Blogger Challenge  I decided to jump on board as i've always wanted to get involved in a challenge like this one, it's a great fun way to ease myself back into blogging. If you are interested in joining in it's not too late, check out Girl Fridays Beauty Blog for more information on what's involved and the daily topics. My only down fall will be reading other peoples posts that are involved with JuneBBC and having a huge wish list the length of my arm, oh the joys of being broke and unemployed.

Todays topic is favourite eyeliners, I am not really a major fan of eyeliner as of lately i've been giving it a miss in my daily makeup routine. I find black way too harsh in my waterline or under my eye which I only ever wear it on a night out with dramatic eye makeup, that being said I must actually purchase a brown eyeliner to use in my everyday makeup. First off we have Inglot soft precision eyeliner in 42, this burgundy colour is to die for, I wear this blended under my lashline with a brown smokey eye. This flattering shade would look amazing on brown eyes as it makes the eye pop and stand out. The Essence long lasting eye pencil in 05 c'est la vie is a fab soft creamy silver eye pencil suitable for a night on the town, I really am fond of the brand Essence as I feel they have stepped up their game recently in producing exceptional quality makeup for cheap as chips. Bourjois metallic eyeliner in 54 bleu clinquant, this was an impulse buy awhile back as I was attracted to the vibrant blue metallic colour, for months on end it sat neatly at the bottom of my makeup bag untouched. After seeing Cara Delevinge wearing an orange lip and bright blue eyeliner on the runway I was sold and that was it. I love how white eyeliner brightens the eye and instantly enlarging your eyes, I have been using Natural Collection eye lines. this eyeliner applies smoothly and is quite pigmented which I adore. And last but not least my holy grail product Essence gel eyeliner in 01 midnight to paris, I am utterly shocked and gutted that this product is been discontinued, why you ask ? basically to make room for new products. I have become so attached to this gel eyeliner, I am absolutely devastated so I have stocked up before it's too late. I must confess that this gel eyeliner is by far the best I have tried, it is extremely pigmented and of a creamy consistency that is easy to work with, the staying power is beyond amazing, it will not budge. I must stop i'm becoming too emotional talking about this product !!!

What's your favourite eyeliner ? Are you joining in on the BBC challenge ?
