How to use
Pick up colour with a flat or detail brush.
Tap off the excess against the back of the hand.
Pat onto the centre of the lid for a focal pop, or sweep along the lower lash line as a coloured liner.
Layer with a deeper navy or smoky shade in the crease for depth.
Slot the refill into a Shu Uemura compact when not in use.
