Oh, heavens! look at those naughty names… Spank Me, Beg For It and think Kink? and those are just the suggestion of the S&M iceberg, haha. I think it’s safe to say that the new MAC Dark desires collection was inspired by some sort of 50 shades of Grey type situation.

But I’m thinking that this collection is going to make a different kind of fantasy come true — one of my makeup fantasies — which is to be able to draw winged liner and not have it take half a day!

OK…so maybe half a day is exaggerating (barely), but you know what though?! It feels that way sometimes, especially when I’m deep in it, and I’ve been sitting there futzing with the angles for 20 minutes.

I know you feel my pain!

There’s a reason for that saying about winged liner being the reason why everyone’s always late (why can’t I remember that saying??).

MAC Dark desires promises to upgrade your winged liner life with a new product line called The Well Eye shadows ($20).

They aren’t ringing any bells for me, so I think these are brand-spankin’ new.

Designed from the start to be applied wet or dry, these very soft, pigmented powder products are dual-purpose. You can use them as eyeshadows and/or eyeliners.

The little packages are slimmer than MAC’s regular eyeshadows, and check this out: each one has a divot, or “a well,” best in the middle of the pan.

The idea is that you’re expected to wet your brush, then swirl it around in the divot, then apply the wet powder to your lids.

So The Well Eye Shadows? For winged liner, big paws up from me. compared to gel or liquid liner, I think these are simpler to control when wet, and when I use them I spend way less time repairing my mistakes.

I dunno… I just feel like I have much more leeway with them than I finish with gel or liquid liner.

Liquid liners are typically runny and very pigmented, so you have to be absolutely on point with your placement; otherwise, you get liner in your crease (boo!).

Gel liners are also typically very pigmented, and typically much more forgiving than liquids because of their thicker formula, but they can still be challenging and easy to over-apply. in some cases they’ll end up looking really thick and start flaking.

But I can build out my lines much more slowly with these wet powder liners, much like gel liners, except that The Well shadows don’t look as heavy if you unintentionally over-apply them, and they don’t lift off or flake.

They also set pretty quickly, and so for that reason don’t transfer up into my crease, which is one of my most significant liner pet peeves.

Basically, as liner, I think these rock (I go into how I feel about them as eyeshadows in the video at the top).

De 22-delige collectie, die meestal oogproducten is, bevat ook vier lippenstiften en twee spijkers, maar ja, deze is gek op de ogen. Je zult vinden dat het donkere make-upfantasieën uitkomen bij Mac-tellers, winkels en online 3 december 2015, tot en met 14 januari 2016.

Bepalen van een naam zoals donkere verlangens, de kleuren zijn erg verzadigd en donker, en zwart speelt een groot deel. Veel van de stukken hebben een figuratieve of letterlijke verwijzing naar zwart in hen.
