Eyeliner Quote by Zara McDermott
“Black eyeliner, that's my first memory of make-up. I used black kohl pencil, just a tiny bit on my lower lash line. My mum always used to wear it so I was copying her. I was about 10 years old when I started trying the look out at home. That was my first taste of make-up, a tiny bit of black eyeliner.”
