maneater™ liquid eyeliner

Tarte maneater™ Liquid Eyeliner is a triple-black liquid liner that dries fast and is built not to fade for 12 hours. The micro-brush tip follows the curve of the lash line, so a single swipe gets you from subtle definition to a full wing.

What it actually does

• Delivers a very deep black. Tarte describes the pigment as triple-black and loaded with lash-enhancing spheres, so the line reads dense rather than grey.
• Fills the gaps between lashes. Pushing the colour into the spaces at the root is what makes the lash line look thicker before mascara even goes on.
• Follows your lid. The brand says the micro-brush moves with the contour of the lash line, which is what makes one-pass application realistic.
• Dries quickly and stays. It is a quick-drying, waterproof formula that Tarte claims holds through day and night without fading.
• Vegan and eye-tested. Listed as vegan, dermatologist tested, ophthalmologist tested and suitable for people in contact lenses, with the brand's 12-hour power™ wear claim.

How to use

1. Everyday line: pull outwards gently at the outer corner so the lid is smooth, angle the pen slightly and trace along the top of the lash line.
2. Wing: flick a thin stroke out from the outer corner, join it back to the centre of the lash line with the tip angled, then go over it a second time to close any gaps.
3. Press into the lash roots where you want extra density rather than widening the line.
4. Remove with a waterproof remover — soak rather than rub.
