removable layer lining the inside
A piece of material or a bag that covers the inside of something to protect it or keep it clean.
Padrão de uso:
a [material] liner for [something]

Sinónimos
lining (Often refers to a built-in inner layer, while a liner is more often removable or replaceable.)
|
inner layer (More general and descriptive; does not strongly suggest that it can be removed.)

cosmetic pencil or liquid liner
Makeup, like a pencil or liquid, that you use to draw a line around your eyes or lips.
Padrão de uso:
apply [liner] to [body part]

Sinónimos
eyeliner (Refers specifically to liner used on the eyes, while "liner" can also refer to lip liner in a makeup context.)

makeup remover (Performs the opposite role: it takes makeup off instead of putting it on.)
