Makeup Spotlight: Avon Glimmersticks Chromes in G204 Veluxe Bleu

Hello Awesome Readers~

Have you tried using pencil liners other than black? We've seen this all over the runway or covers and this has been a trend for quite sometime now. Others look good in it while others are not. This kind of eyeliner trend can be a bit tricky but if you know the right recipe then you'll rock this look in no time.

I decided to give this trend a try but i decided to keep it simple and took baby steps into it. I didn't go with bold neon colors yet, instead I found an eyeliner that wouldn't look so striking yet will give you that pop of color anytime you want to. Here is Avon Glimmersticks Chromes in G204 Veluxe Bleu. So let's get to know this eyeliner more shall we?
