Lottie London Last Night's Liner in Black, Buttery Black Jumbo Eyeliner Pencil
Our editorial score, out of 10
“The best smoky-eye pencil in the range, with a set-time that's judged just right.”
At a glance
Our verdict
A jumbo kohl pencil with a genuinely buttery drag — it smudges into a soft smoky line for about a minute, then sets and stops moving. That short working window is the whole appeal: enough time to blend, not enough to migrate under the eyes by lunchtime. Excellent in the waterline and along the lower lash line. Sharpen occasionally to keep the tip usable for tightlining.
What stands out
- A genuinely buttery drag — it glides without tugging at the delicate skin around the eye.
- About a minute of working time, then it sets and stops moving. That short window is the whole appeal: long enough to blend, not long enough to migrate.
- Excellent in the waterline, where thinner pencils skip and harder formulas scratch.
Pros and cons
✓ Pros
- Perfect blend-then-set timing
- Comfortable in the waterline
- Doesn't transfer to the upper lid by lunchtime
- Great for tightlining
✗ Cons
- Needs sharpening to stay precise
- Jumbo format is too thick for a fine line
How to use it
Draw along the lash line and smudge with a brush or fingertip within the first minute. Once it sets, it won't move — so blend early or not at all.
Who should skip it
Anyone who wants a sharp graphic line. Use one of the stamp liners' liquid ends for that.
The bottom line
The best smoky-eye pencil in the range, with a set-time that's judged just right.
