Lancôme's stick-on eyliner - Telegraph Not got the steady hand needed to line your eyes? Pas de problème, say French beauty brand Lancôme, who have the perfect solution with their stick-on Hypnôse Velours Multi-Wear Eyeliner Patches For all its beautiful simplicity, it has actually taken me 20 years to master eyeliner. Because while I may be a dab (well, less shaky at least) hand at lining my eyes now, learning which ink, what nib, pen and angle work best has taken daily determination and dedication to the cat flick cause. And don't Lancôme just know it. Because just as I crack my magic formula (black ink from a short brush drawn on at a 45 degree angle as my head tilts back to close - but not shut - my eyes) the French beauty brand has loaned us their ready made stick-on version.

But while we love a shortcut in beauty, not all stick-on versions are what they seem at first. So we decided to put these these to the test. They go on well and convincingly (and a total three times in total before they lose their glue) but all need a little adjusting to perfect. The trick is to go in as close as you can to your lash line for the best effect. Our advice is to arm yourself with a black pencil liner and good mascara too, because where the ready made stickers might not match your exact lash line you'll be left with flashes of skin so use the kohl to fill in any tell tale gaps. Though without either, you do actually get a modern graphic look.

Each of the three sets comes with a top and bottom flick - great for a party, perhaps not for a beginner - so if you're a newcomer to liner just go for the top line and ease yourself in. Plus, as comfortable as velour can be you can also feel the stickers when you blink, so just wearing one is more comfy. Best of all? Absolute symmetry and the fact that they won't smudge - because 20 years later a liner that won't fade or fleck is still missing from my formula. Et voilà.
