Lip & Eye Spring Notes

When left to lay around for more than a year, lip and eye pencils can get dry, making it impossible to easily glide pigment on skin, says Bryl. If the pencil crumbles when you're using it, it's time to get a refresh with a new one. Your eyeliner will go on smoother and blend more easily too.

There's a simple trick that can double or even triple the lifetime of pencils. Simply sharpen every once in awhile for a full sanitization unlike anything else you can achieve with other makeup products, and the warmth of the sharpening friction can even keep the pigment softer for longer.

Stila's Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner is a new pencil version of the brand's cult kohl pot liners. Try applying one of the vibrant shades to your upper lashline, and then use your fingertip to smudge into shadow for a sexy, sultry look.
