Alexa Chung for Eyeko set






Alexa Chung is well known to being partial to a cat-eye so who better to be in conjunction with Eyeko . This is a duo of Eye do liquid eyeliner and Eye do mascara . Perfect for recreating her gorgeous look . 

Eye Do Liquid Eyeliner - Is a waterproof, black eyeliner in a felt pen style applicator which I find is the easiest option for an eyeliner novice .  It boasts that the nib gives optimum control during application and dries to a waterproof finish that do doesnt move, flake, or fade .   It can also be used in the waterline which I would normally not attempt with a pen style eyeliner . I used this in my previous post and have to say its a really nice eyeliner pen , that wears well and doesn't budge or feather like some. 

Eye Do Mascara - I have always loved the eyeko range of mascara s for my own professional makeup kit  . Mainly due to the packaging as I can squeeze the tube to get  mascara out when using disposable mascara wands . But also the formula it build s up well and gives great length easily .  However it can also be good for your lashes with key ingredients Keeatin and Ginkgo Biloba combined with botanical proteins infused with vitamins A and E .


A really nice kit and at £35 a nice  stocking filler for Xmas perhaps .

On the 6th day of Christmas ...

Now I know that's not quite right but the songs going round and round in my head.

 So tip number 6 of my Xmas advent is if you really struggle getting a straight line when doing an eyeliner flick or smokey winged out look  , take a little tape , make sure to make it a little less sticky by sticking it to a hand first and run it from your  bottom lash line towards your eyebrow . Then run your eyeliner along the tape, when you come remove the tape you are left with a crisp liner flick . 

Please excuse my red eyes , they are fine , just full of the cold
