I love Bobbi Brown eye products. In fact it was the iconic Gel Liner that got me into eyeliner in the first place. I still have one of those pots in my kit, and have just added some rather exciting ones to the collection. Check out the Bobbi Brown Long Wear Gel Sparkle line-up! This is more than a liner – this is where ‘Liner meets Shadow’!

There are 5 new shades in this beautiful formula. It is sparkly, but just very wearable and not at all garish. I am loving this!

It is so easy to work with. I just took a small flat eyeshadow brush to apply it, and then blended it out with a fluffy brush. I put Smoky Topaz all over the lid, then use my finger to pop Sunlit Bronze on the centre of the lid, and used the Liner end of the new brush (see below) to add depth at the lash line with Thunderstorm. It lasted all day and stayed looking freshly applied.

This new brush is the perfect partner for the new Bobbi Brown Long Wear Gel Sparkles. Just as the gels can be used as either shadow or liner, one end has cream smudger to apply as shadow, and the other end is a fine liner brush for more defined application. It’s perfectly portable too as it is retractable. It is £31 – find it HERE.

Bobbi Brown Long Wear Gel Sparkles are available now for £20. Find them HERE. I was going to pick one it would be Sunlit Bronze.
