the BEST eyeliner ever!

MAC fluidline in blacktrack $15 & MAC brush 266 $19, maccosmetics.com

Currently available in six gorgeous shades:

Rich Ground - Reddened coco with frost
Dipdown - Deep dark flat brown
Blitz & Glitz - Intense black with gold pearl
Blacktrack - Solid flat black
Waveline - Navy blue with low level gold pearl
Macroviolet - Deep smoked violet with red pearl

The formula is fantastic. It's smooth, creamy and it glides on easily. This is hands down my favorite product to use when doing winged liner. When using this on my upper lashline, it stays the entire day until I take it off at night. This doesn't last very long on my waterline and as far as I know, it's also not approved for that purpose. Gel liner can be applied in various ways, I recommend the MAC 209, 210 and 266 for best results.

Not only can the fluidlines be used as liner, they can also be used as a base! I apply a small amount to my eyelid and then smudge and blend it before it dries. The staying power is great and I haven't found that they crease when used this way.

You can prolong the life of your fluidline by storing it upside down. This way the moisture will always be at the top. If you find that your fluidline is getting dry, mixing it with a clean cosmetic spatula and adding a few drops of mixing medium will bring it back to life. Fluidline lasts a VERY long time because they're so pigmented and you only need a small amount.
