This new cushion eye liner is €3.80 but it's one of the best we've ever used

I always get excited when there is something new in the makeup world. As a beauty editor, it's often hard to find those hidden gems because I've literally seen it all.

This week, however, I had one of those moments when this little gem landed on my desk.

• Essence The Cushion Eyeliner €3.80

This is a really clever way to package liner, especially of the liquid kind. The sponge in the container allows you to pick up just the right amount of product on your chosen brush. And let's face it when it comes to liquid liner the brush is such a huge part in getting it right. The liner itself is fab, the black is really black and it's got a semi-gloss finish which is my personal favourite.

For €3.80 this is an absolute steal.
