I'm debating some more Art Supplies goodies!
I'm seriously thinking about picking up Zinc Zone, Below Ground and Charred Mauve. I passed on Zinc Zone and Below Ground because I have similar bases in shadesticks.
But I looooove the GPS I did pick up (especially Dirty!) so much more than my shadesticks! They are so much easier to work with. And I love that they can also work as a smudgy liner.
I am trying to resist an Undercurrent lemming, though. I have UD's Covet so do I really need it? There's a difference in swatches, but I'm not entirely convinced it'll be noticeable on my eyes.

Today I wore Undercurrent over Blacktrack f/l and Feline Khol Power! Everyone should try this! It's so pretty!!

to me, undercurrent is different enough from covet to warrant having both
just my opinion, i'm not trying to enable

Color wise, they both look pretty similar at a glimpse when worn. But the sparkly thing of Undercurrent makes my eyes brighter and it makes a whole lot difference.
If I had to have just one, I would go for Undercurrent.

I decided not to get Black Liner pearlglide. I still need to return my 3 lip stains. This collection is a dud for me.

I did Dirty greasepaint blended out on my upper lid and lined my lower lid with Undercurrent. It was WOW BAM AMAZING. I got so many compliments!
Also got Black Line and Designer Purple and have been so impressed with those too. I think this has been one of my favorite collections.

I got my Zinc zone, Dirty & Black Line in today and I LOVE dirty!! I like the Black Line pearlglide too but like others it's kinda stings my eyes. I actually makes them water more then sting. One eye was fine but the other wasnt...I think I got some on my lash's when applying at the caused the reaction.
I'm wearing dirty now with a pigment from line line over it (toffee) and it looks great!
I've only swatched zinc zone and hoping I will like it better on, it's a nice color but not what I was expecting. I love the greasepaints so much I ordered 2 more and found undercurrent liner at nordstroms
I never buy products from collections except for the pigments for my store/stock. I never wear anything either on my eyes except for pigments (they are the only product that doesnt bother my skin). So far the greasepaint has been on my eyes for 3-4 hours and they are OK
For now on I have to stop reading these collection threads, I'm spending way too much on makeup, lol. Heck, I sell 2 lines of eye products you'd think that would be enough

I'm still scared to keep using undercurrent because of the glitter. I'm particularly scared that it will fall in my right (dodgy) eye.
At christmas time, I was putting up the tree and tried to put the baubles on the branches. Like a total idiot, I tried to put one on one of the inner branches and poked myself directly in the eye with another branch. It was SO painful! The doctor said I scratched my eyeball. My right eye has been giving me trouble ever since (and I'm now suspicious of christmas trees).

i know this is a genuine injury but your story amuses me greatly
suspicious of christmas trees?? hehehe 'they're everywhere!'
i flicked a fountain pen in my eye when i was 14, it got stuck and i had to have micro stitches, so i feel your pain
i have had no trouble with these pearlglides at all, but my injury was a long time ago, as long as u dont line your waterline, you should be fine

Ooh that sounds painful girl! At least that's healed up now though.
And yes it's a genuine injury and it is funny. I had tell my boss that someone opened an umbrella and a spoke went in my eye becuase the true story sounded so ridiculous and he would otherwise think I was a numpty.

i feel sorry for your eye injuries. and your stories are quite amusing hehe.
i got undercurrent and zinc zone and i love them both! undercurrent makes your eyes so bright! <3 is it me or the formulas on the new gps more creamy and opaque than the older gps?
does anyone have both rave and designer purple and feel like they are different enough to own both? id like a bright bright purple eyeliner but rave isnt bright enough. i dotn know if designer purple is what im looking for.
