    "The darker liner is ebony and these are by Make Up For Ever. I'm going to put them in the waterline and just come around and go up into the upper lash line just a little bit. And I may have to blend it out [...] with a brush. If we're going out to a party, I will do darker liner because it looks just a little bit more sultry and elegant for a mature evening look."

    "I also occasionally very very occasionally use a little bit of liner on my lower lash line to make that kind of faux winged line. It's not a real wing, it's just kind of a faux wing. It just gives a little drama to an evening look, and the Make Up For Ever in Ebony is the one that I reach for now. I learned this trick from my hairdresser. I can't talk and put eyeliner on, and [...] you just go to the center of your pupil and out, and then take the excess product and just wing it out."
