Makeup flat lay

A bit like having a peek through someone else’s makeup bag, our Eyeko London team share their favourite eye makeup products and essentials. Whether you read our makeup shelf life post last week or are looking to restock your makeup bag, these are team Eyeko London’s top recommendations: 

ANGIE, Head of Brand

“My absolute favourite is the Double Act Shadow Stick in Cookies and Cream. It’s great for everyday colour working from home. Perfect for that no makeup makeup look.”

BECCA, eCommerce Executive 

“My favourite Eyeko London product is Black Magic: Cocoa Edit Pencil Eyeliner – because it’s such a great multipurpose product. You can use it in the waterline for a bit of subtle definition or smudged out as an eyeliner for a more ‘effortless’ look. I reach for this every time I do my makeup WITHOUT FAIL. Love it so much.”

KATIE, Social Media Manager 

Black Magic: Cocoa Edit Pencil Eyelinermy new favourite pencil eyeliner! It’s super easy to apply and does not budge once it’s set. Perfect for going day to night (even on Zoom!) and creates an effortless, smokedout look for the fair-haired.”

IZZY, Brand Marketing Executive 

“My favourite is Definite It Brow Pencil. I love the versatility of this product. I’m able to draw really defined lines to arch my brow but its also great for filling in sparse areas for a really natural look!”

LAURA, Junior eCommerce Manager

Lash Alert is the ultimate mascara! It’s the perfect allrounder mascara as it gives my lashes great length and volume. I use it for everyday but also think it’s great to build upon to make a more dramatic eye.”

SALLY, Assistant Brand Manager 

Rock Out & Lash Out Mascara is my favourite for a night out (or in, at the moment!). It’s super black, and it really extends and separates my lashes. I’m obsessed with the brush shape too, as it catches even those tiny inner and outer corner lashes with ease.”

LIZZIE, CRM Manager 

Skinny Liquid Eyeliner is my absolute goto, its super easy to use and versatile at the same time. You can use for a super thin line or build up to a more glam flick.”

LYDIA, Brand Marketing Apprentice  

“I have super sensitive eyes so sometimes I find that mascara just won’t stay on throughout the day. Sport Waterproof Mascara is my current favourite – there’s no way it’s coming off and it doesn’t irritate my eyes.”

LUCY, Brand Manager 

“My absolute ride or die is Eyeko London‘s Brow Gel. It has a light tint so provides definition to each and every hair on my brow line. I like to have a ‘fluffy brow-look’, and for me this works perfectly.”
