BEAUTY
The
everlasting
eyeliner
If black liquid liner is your thing, you’ll probably
view any other coloured kohl with suspicion – but,
before you rule everything else out, try these clever
gel pencils. Easier to apply than a liquid, they
have superior lasting power to traditional kohl
and just a hint of sooty colour to make eyes
look fresher and wider awake.

plumper
Step away from the needles
and put down the prickly
plumping gloss. This
buttery-soft, unsticky balm
gives a hint of colour
while menthol revs up
circulation, meaning
you get a fullness boost
that won’t leave your lips
ringed in red or feeling
as if they’re on fire.✽ (^) L’Oréal Paris
