I am loving Clinique's Brush-On Cream Liner.

I gave it the ultimate acid test by applying it on New Year's Eve and crossing my fingers that it would still be there at midnight.

It was easy to use and didn't budge, or smudge, still looking perfect at 2am.

Clinique says a fast-drying gel incorporated allows colour to glide across the lash line and volatile silicone technology means it is long-lasting.

Whatever the science behind it all, it worked for me.

It costs £11.74 and comes in Black Honey, Deep Brown, True Black and Smoke Grey.
