When Pat isn't in charge of her eye makeup, Adele turns to two trusted products to achieve her signature look – namely the Bobbi Brown Longwear Gel Eyeliner in Black Ink, and the MAC Eyeliner Brush 209. This is back in stock after a sell out, and it's flying off the virtual shelves, so hurry if you want to grab one.
if you do happen to miss it, MAC has a very similar product you can use if you can't wait for another restock.

Her makeup artist Michael Ashton spilled the beans on how to recreate the look during a chat with fellow makeup artist Lisa Eldridge.
As revealed on Lisa’s YouTube channel, Michael told how he applies the eyeliner. Apparently, the trick is to apply the Bobbi Brown ink to the back of your hand and let the product dry out slightly to make it "more workable."

And the good news is that you don't need to worry about the shape too much and just focus on getting enough product on the lash line, right into the root of the lashes.
Michael recommends applying pressure with the eyeliner brush to drag the gel upwards at a 45-degree angle towards your temple to get the perfect flick. To sharpen the line, he uses the brush whilst taking the pressure off so you get "a softer line."

If you make a mistake, don’t worry. Just make sure you have some cotton buds on hand. 'If you have made a mistake or it needs to be sharper, I always have Bioderma water handy and cotton tips,' he says.
