Avon Glimmerstick in Saturn Grey is a twist-up pencil which imparts a strong charcoal grey colour if applied heavily, but can be smoked out for a more subtle alternative to black. For me, black eyeliner has its time and place, but a grey can be worn anytime, anywhere. I much prefer it to black. This a great, affordable and long-lasting alternative to Mac or Urban Decay.
Mac Powerpoint eye pencils are long-lasting and come in some nice shades. Grey Utility is a dark grey which I have gotten a lot of use from. Duck obviously drew me in with the name (I adore ducks!), but also the shade description being 'a soft grey brown'. It is matte and extremely versatile. Buried Treasure is a blackish brown with some subtle gold shimmer. I prefer the other two shades I own, but this is a good one for evening.
Lancome La Crayon Khol in Silver was an impulse purchase on Boots.com where I wanted to pick up a a free gift or Advantage Card points for the cheapest possible spend (cheeky me!). I'm actually really happy I took a chance with this and I don't own anything exactly the same. It is a subtle grey-silver with a metallic sheen that looks great on the waterline and stays there. It is not quite as creamy as the Urban Decay liners, but definitely on a par with Mac.
Mac Eye Kohl in I Get No Kick is a limited edition metallic champagne liner- great for inner corner highlight; in my opinion, not amazing for lining the waterline unless blended. It is a nice pencil to own, but not a must-have. I have included it in my postto add a bit of variety and it may be a re-release one day, in which case a swatch is ready and waiting to be gawped at!
