Now that my Greasepaint Stick from the Style Black Collection is almost gone, I now know about the sharpener. Wish you had been at our MAC counter when this was released. :o
i just bought one, and i didnt know there was a sharpener! thanks! hahai got black, and it really is awesome, im gonna buy like...20 of them since theyre discontinued.
I was wondering!!! Do u use covergirl cause I have the eyeshadow stick right now I don't remember what's called but it's the one that comes out in comercials lots n is the purple w silver... So my question is, Do u think u can do a tutorial on that??? Please, I tried it but it doesn't look like how they did it in the commercials....
Thanks for the review! I've been wondering what dark base would be best for me. I love doing smokey eyes. I have oily lids and everything I've used so far fades in like 20 minutes, so thanks!
GREAT REVIEW! I already have unformly blue but didnt know there was a sharpener until I saw your vid. Also, I was thinking of buying gunmetal but not sure. Thanks to your review I will now!
Richie, I'm so glad I watched this! I bought a greasepaint stick online and it didn't even mention there was a sharpener in the end (not that I remember but then I was delirious with shopping fever at the time) - Anyway, I would never have known if I hadn't watched this, so thanks!!
I bought the grease sticks in Zinc Zone and Dirty (which has sold out in America) and I love them as a base as well for the smoky eye. I also love the Pearl Glide pencils that they released with the collection, especially Industrial which i use with Moon's Reflection shadow. I would love to hear what you think of the pencils that are in the collection.
And omg I was so close to getting the grease paint from the Dsquared collection, but I'm glad I didn't now:D I love the little sharpener on the new ones! Xxxx
Do you also have the lip stains? I'm thinking about getting these, but they're $26 a piece in Germany and I've heard so many conflicting reviews about them. I don't want to spend so much money on something that just dries out quickly or doesn't actually stay on and stain the lips... Have you tried them?
I have zinc zone and I love it. You're totally right, you can use it with any color to make the perfect smokey eye. I didn't know it had a sharpener at the end though! That will make the water line soooo much easier <3
i really wish they would just stick it in their permanent collection rather than having to buy a bunch every time they come out or hunt it down across the city for one colour.
yes i totally agreee. i wish they would make them permentaly, but who knows , if they sell really well then they prob will in the future. they did the same thing with dazzleglass and creemsheen glass, so now those are perm. keep fingers crossed. im still waiting for dazzlecreme glass and the pearlglide liners to become perm , same with these greasepaint sticks!
I really wanted some sticks from this collection but Lush came first because my skin is dying. I'll just have to wait until they come out with more of these again.
@MissThomCat - Just a suggestion....I rub the color onto my finger and then apply it to my lid....it really softens and warms the product & it smooths right on with no tugging or pulling....I thought this might be helpful :)
You know what? You are AMAZING!! its so much fun to watch your videos. Even tho I dont have MAC here where I live (just some 100 km away) I love watching your videos. You are so talented and such a wonderful personality. Keep up the good work hun :) If I had the money I would try and get my hands on some of these products, now I just have to be happy with drugstore products :)
Wow you are uploading up a storm! I love it love it! It's always a great surprise to see your videos in my subscription box everyday! Keep up the good work! I am addicted to you for almost two years now!
You said they last all day and they don't budge, but are they hard to take off when you remove your makeup? They look amazing and soo smooth to apply, unlike the shadesticks. You are soo pretty, by the way :)
I have the beige-ing shadestick, and I really regret it, Queen of blending used it alot a while ago, so I thought Id buy it.....dont like it :S maybe I should get zinc zone!?
Great review - and I agree w/everything you say that I bought all of them except for 2 colours. They are so easy to use and creamy and easy to apply BUT don't crease or smudge off. MAC has hit a winner here.
Thanks hun and hope you get out to NYC once the cloud has cleared!
I love your bracelet. Just wondering, how does it work with MAC. Do they send you the items and you get to keep them all or do you have to send it back? The reason I'm asking is how come they didn't send you the other colours from the collection?
i had the black greasepaint that were launched together with the D'squared range...it was hard to work with bcos it was difficult to blend and flakes off easily...read reviews on makeupalley with similar problem with the greasepaint...i hope the new formula fixed that those problems...
ah thanks for the grease- vs shadestick,I have two shadesticks back from the sugarsweet collection (lemon chiffon+red velvet) and they are a pain to use ..especially to blend in ..so I didn't knew wether the greaspaints were worth it.
Aww for the poor quality :( Love your videos so much :] Don't have much intelligent to say, but just thought I'd drop a note saying how great & helpful these vids are ^^
