Pearlglides are really great because they are such a soft, creamy pencil. There is no pulling, tugging or draging, they really go on super smooth with awesome color pay-off and a touch of glitter.
Although, I have had issues with them smudging on me. It's not as bad as with most other MAC liners, but not nearly as smudge-proof as the MUFE ones. Those are my very favorite liners EVER!

Charred Mauve
Zinc Zone
Brown Now
^I'm a little confused about this & Below Ground - I just want a darker bronzey brown

Pearlglides
Almost Noir
Petrol
Black line

The MAC eyeliners that are safe for waterline are the ones with "khol" in the name

like lost said, only eye kohl, technakohl, and kohl power are approved for the waterline. the GPS has just now been added to the waterline-safe list. anything else has not been tested for the waterline, so use at your own risk.

nowhere close. the base colour for undercurrent is actually blue, with green-teal shimmers.

Fluidlines aren't? Hmm...I thought they were. Oh well, I've been using them on my waterline and to tightline with no problems. I shall continue.

I'm a huge fan of PG, I like them more then my UD24/7.
Really smooth, great payoff, long wearing; more then any other pencil I tried (didn't try the MUFE one thought).

I'M not a fan of glittery e/l usually but those one I do like a lot. Oh, and I use them on my water line without any problems.

I've never used ud 24/7 liners before! I know they have a ton of colors, didn't know they could be used on the waterline. I'm going to have to check these out!!!!! I'm currently using Mally Beauty's waterproof black liner on my waterline, which is
drools.gif
. It lasts ALL day and is super black. I love it so much that I ended up buying every color they had, but NONE of them stick to my waterline!!!!!- which is odd since the black one is so amazing

I would love to wear something other than black or brown on my waterline!

Thanks! I'm definitely going to have to check out UD and MUFE's liners!!! I've never tried these brand's liners before. Maybe I'll buy one from each and see which one I like more

Hmmm, now I'm lemming pearlglides!

Are they worth it for someone who already has, oh, say, 10 or 12 24/7 liners?
sneaky.gif
I like glittery eyeliners, but how many eyeliners can one person have? (Hmm, this could be the wrong place to ask that!
greengrin.gif
)

Maybe I'll just pick up Industrial or Undercurrent; the only blue 24/7 liner I have is a navy blue.

hee hee! definately the wrong place to ask
tong.gif
no in all seriousness i am only getting colours that i don't already have in ud 24/7 or the old pearlglides. at the end of the day there is no need to spend money on something if you have an identical version already. more money for the lipstains

Yeah, I don't think that's the right place to ask this question

Personally I adore pearlglides. I got all of them the first time and they're probably my favorite product that MAC has released in the last couple of years. And this is coming from someone that has countless eyeliners (20+ UD 24/7) and I don't think anything compares to my pearlglides
bigheart.gif

They are super soft, smooth, extremely pigmented with gorgeous soft sparkle and really long lasting too. What more could I ask from an e/l?

Needless to say I'll be getting them all

Oh the colored packaging is so pretty! Now that these pics are out, I'm even more perplexed over what to CUT from my list.....I want all of the GPS and pearlglides...
mac_haul.gif
but I don't think that I can afford all that.

I don't have that many e/l....

Aqua Eyes in 0L (Black), 10L (Metallic Bronze) and 22L (Metallic Grey)
Nars E/L in Kyoto (Metallic Olive Green)
MAC Eye Kohl in Lichen, Prunella and Violet Underground
MAC Kohl Power in Raven and Sense of Style
MAC Powerpoint in Buried Treasure

What colors should I be focusing on, based on this list?

Sorry to ask, but I am in a fog with the sniffles and my surgery's medical clearance appointment later this morning, I can't seem to think straight.
