I bought this liner on a whim the other day, and I may just be a converted MAC eyeliner user permanently! It's a beautiful, sparkly deep teal color, it glides on perfectly, and the best part is that it doesn't smudge on my upper eyelids, which most other eyeliners do (even waterproof ones)!! Stays on pretty much all day. I may try a few other colors for a change-up, but this one is a keeper!

This is my favorite colored eyeliner.
It is sparkly, and dramatic- perfect for a night out or when you want your eyes to be noticed.
It's incredibly long-lasting, and does not budge. Even on someone like me, who has oily eyelids.
I would not recommend using it on your waterline, however, because of the glitter (it can be irritating).

very pretty colour. It does smudge a little bit when I use it over the lower lash line. After I remove this at night I get glitters all over my face. The fun thing about this beauty is that you can prime your lids, glide this on, as some mascara and you're done. I do think it will not last long. After two uses I have to charpen it.

Undercurrent is a beautiful teal green with a golden glow. It has some very fine micro-glitter which enhances the shine, but if you don't like glitter, you might not like this.


Pearlglide liners glide on smoothly, but sometimes with a bit of unevenness which is easily fixed with an additional swipe. The colors really are intense - they do stand out. These do not irritate my sensitive eyes when used as a liner or lid color. Because of the glitter, however, this is NOT a good product for the waterline, since glitter in the eye is irritating.


Two negatives i notice:
-- a tendency to smudge on me (but some people want that)
and
-- a tendency to fade after a few hours.
Both these problems may be eased by applying over a lid primer - i really need to try that!


I love the Pearlglide Intense Eye Liners: the ease of application, the intense colors, and the shimmery finish. i have 4 colors out of 7, and i'm considering getting another one.

Hands-down, one of the most gorgeous colors I have ever seen in an eyeliner! I love glittery liners and quality ones are extremely difficult to find. The one thing that puzzles me, upon reading others reviews is that it absolutely smudges into my crease and upper eyelid within a few hours. All liners do on me, so it's not a deal-breaker or anything, I am just surprised that so many people say it doesn't smudge and is "unbudgeable." I have been trying to be lazy and get away with wearing it on bare lids without primer, but I think I'll just bite the bullet and start using my UDPP underneath and then it will truly be perfect. Highly, highly recommend!

This is such a beautiful mermaid teal- green shimmery color! The texture is soft and buttery and it'll last all day (no smudging or smearing)! I love it and am so happy it's permenant. Must have them all!!

This has got to be the most gorgeous eyeliner I've ever seen. Deep teal with golden shimmer. It's deep and complex, almost murky but stunning. I really like wearing this with the Maybelline Color Tattoo in Edgy Emerald, they compliment each other quite well. Pearlglide eyeliners are really fantastic, they go on so easily, blend out nicely, wear for ages and look nice the whole time. I have quite a few but this is just the one that stands out the most to me.

Pearlglides are my favorite of all the MAC brand pencils. I find that the line lasts longer without fading and smudging- even when my eyes get watery from allergies and sinus issues. They outperform every MAC Technakohl & Powerpoint pencil, and are even better than my 2 other faves: MUFE Aqua eyes and Urban Decay's 24/7 pencil eyeliners. That being said, Undercurrent is a gorgeous, dark, shimmery, teal eyeliner pencil that applies without tugging on the delicate eye area & lasts all day on me. When I really want the color to :: POP :: I apply it over a line of MAC Pearlglide in Petrol Blue. Those 2 colors combined are AMAZING!!! I don't know why MAC releases these Pearlglides only on a limited edition basis, because this is definitely one of their BEST products and I believe each color gets stellar reviews. Why not keep them around permanently? They are being re-released on a LE basis again, of course, sometime in early 2012. If you haven't tried one yet, I'd definitely recommend grabbing one when they are available again. If you are a pencil eyeliner lover.... I don't think you'll be too disappointed in these. :)

I purchased this at a makeup discount store for only $10. I love it!! It's such a great color and I love how soft the pencil is and how easily it glides on. And it doesn't smear or smudge or anything. Actually doesn't come off until I use eyemakup remover. Going back to stock up!!
