How To Replicate Amy Winehouse's Makeup Routine

Posted by Valentine Belue on Thursday, June 6, 2024

The eyeliner Amy Winehouse herself used, according to her personal makeup artist Valli O'Reilly (via Lisa Eldridge), was the Exaggerate Liquid Eye Liner from Rimmel London. Despite her fame and status, the humble Winehouse still chose to remain true to herself and use affordable drugstore products.

While some liquid eyeliner products advertise themselves as black but really come out as a more ashy grey or brown, Rimmel's Exaggerate Liquid Eyeliner is truly the blackest of black, with a smooth, inky finish that Winehouse was clearly fond of. The fine yet firm and pointed brush makes it easy for anyone to build a bold, overdrawn look to resemble Winehouse's eyes. For the exaggerated upturned look that she always used, make sure to pull your eyes upward and drag the liner diagonally to the corner of your eyebrows.

If you want to take things even a step further, you can use the eyeliner to draw a little dot above the right side of your upper lip, to recreate Amy Winthouse's's edgy Monroe piercing that was meant to resemble a beauty mark.
