Oldest eyeliner pencil in the world found in Turkey – The History Blog

"The stone is 9.5 cm (3.7 inches) long and tapers to a sharpened tip. There is black paint residue on the pointed end. Women dipped them in pot filled with black paint and applied the fine end to their eyelids. Stones with paint at the tip like this one have been found before in Syria, Iran and Turkey, but the oldest of them date back 4,000 years."
