The key to a "no-makeup" makeup look lies in the subtle details that make your features pop. For your eyes, a bit of liner always does the trick! A classic black liner is a staple in our kits for sure, but we're here to make a case for brown eyeliners.
A brown hue is just as universal as black— it comes in a variety of shades ranging from light to dark to suit your makeup needs. The less intense tone makes eyeliner application less intimidating, too! Plus, it gives you the liberty to define your eyes without being overpowering.
