Martha Stewart made a revelation most would consider gross during a makeup tutorial video shoot for Allure magazine. The TV personality still uses the LeClerc liquid liner despite it being discontinued years ago. Martha admitted that she has kept the same tubes from 20 years ago, and she has no regrets about it.
The Mayo Clinic warns that the same eyeliner should not be used for more than a few months, as it could breed germs and increase the risk of eye infections. Martha joked that her makeup artist, Daisy, would cringe at her loyalty to the same makeup product.

Martha confessed that she simply adds water to the eyeliner tube, which has impressively not dried out. She credits the silvery gray-brown color for the flair it adds to her face by widening her eyes a bit. Over the years, liquid liners have been replaced by liner pens, which are less smudgy and quicker to apply.
The 83-year-old also swears by her Westman Atelier Butter Powder Bronzer for giving her face a youthful glow. It remains her go-to despite her granddaughter Jude complaining about her excessive use of the product. She claims it makes her feel ready to go and healthy.
Fans react to Martha Stewart’s makeup confession
Fans were in Allure’s official Instagram comments section, discussing Martha’s confession about her old eyeliner. “Good God I love that she is milking that eyeliner for twenty years!!” an impressed fan exclaimed. “Need a dupe for the eyeliner she uses!!!!” another requested.
Martha’s revelation comes after her viral interview on The Drew Barrymore Show, where she pushed the touchy host off her mid-conversation. She promoted her new documentary Martha on the show, which showed her rise to fame from a different career path to the lucrative hospitality industry.
