Better white base: paint stick or chromaline? Or something else...

[laperle]

Hello, ladies and gents.

Especially those initiated in the MAC Pro world. Or people with a special trick in the sleeve!

Can you tell what would you pick for a white base?

TIA

White Chromaline is the best IMO...you will get to try it soon I pray!

Agreed. Chromaline is the only way to go. I think paint sticks can get greasy looking.. especially if you are prone to oily eyelids.

tish, still no sign.

still waiting, though

i'm asking 'cos i've" just seen a FOTD by Brie and she says the white paint stick is great.

i'd love to know more about texture, creasing possibilities, etc.

 

[TISH1124]

I know.....I am just bummed you are still waiting pooh!!

Chromaline is very white and opaque, it would be perfect!

I like Luna ccb, but I know that isnt a heavy strong white, its just a cast of sticky white.

I'm sort of a MAC nooooob, but where would I find this chromaline? I don't see it on the MAC website, is it a MACPro thing only? I waaaant!!

Yes, it's a MACPro product, but I think u can get in a MACPro Store or by the phone, if u live in the US.

While I love my white chromaline, I've have yet to have it work for anything but matte e/s!! Maybe I need to break it out and play w/ it somemore. Anyone else have this issue?

Ooooh, gurl. I went to my local "naughty" store and bought NYC's Manic Panic Goth White creme shadow. Awesome!! And, soooo cheap!

I am so glad you said that I bought this a week ago and I have yet to try it...does it keep the e/s from creasing as well?

 

[rbella]

Yeah, you just have to be careful not to use a ton. I put a bunch on once and had to wipe half of it off. But, on my lids, the e/s stayed put all day long and didn't crease at all. I was really surprised! And, happy!

not working with mattes is an issue

rbella, have u tried the NYC's one with mattes?

 

[rbella]

Yes!! I love, love, love it!! I think it actually works best with the mattes. It feels like it dries like theatre makeup when it is set. Loves it!!

 

[laperle]

oh god... i need this stuff!
