Designed to be used on more than just the eyes, Crayons are made for experimenting with colour, definition and different textures. Use them to create a classic liner, build a smoky eye, add colour to your lips or take your makeup somewhere completely unexpected.

With a creamy texture that glides on easily and becomes smudge- and waterproof once set, there are plenty of ways to play.

Here are six ways to use yours beyond the classic line.

Let’s start with the obvious.

Apply directly along the upper lash line for instant definition. Keep it close to the lashes for a subtle everyday look, or build up the colour for a more intense finish. Want to take it further? Extend the line beyond the outer corner to create a wing, or experiment with the shape for something more graphic.

These versatile pencils are perfect for creating a smoky eye without needing a whole collection of eyeshadows.

Apply along the lash line and blend while the formula is still workable. Add more colour close to the lashes and gradually soften the edges for a diffused finish. For even more intensity, use it as an eyeshadow base before applying powder eyeshadow. This helps create a stronger base and makes the colour stand out.

No brush? No problem.

Apply directly onto the eyelid and blend with your fingertip for an easy wash of colour. For a softer result, pick up the product with a brush before applying it to the eye for a more sheer, diffused finish. Keep it simple with one shade or layer different colours to create more depth.

The lower lash line is an easy place to experiment with colour.

Apply underneath the lower lashes and blend slightly for a softer effect. A neutral shade adds subtle definition, while a brighter colour can completely change the mood of your look. Try pairing a colourful lower lash line with a more minimal upper eye for a look that feels unexpected without being complicated.

These aren’t limited to eye makeup.

Depending on the shade, use one to outline and define the lips or apply it all over for a more complete colour. With shades ranging from lip-friendly neutrals to shimmer and matte finishes, there’s plenty of room to experiment. For a softer finish, apply the colour directly to the centre of the lips and blend it out with your fingertip.

Your brows can be another place to experiment.

A deeper matte shade can add definition and structure, while a more unexpected colour can become part of a creative makeup look.

Keep the application light and precise, or go bolder and make your brows part of the statement.

A Crayon can be a liner, eyeshadow, lip colour, brow product or something completely different. The same shade can look entirely different depending on where you use it, how you apply it and what you pair it with.
