I love these and am so happy they are now permenant!! This is a beautiful light grayish silverish blue with fine glitter. It's such an interesting color for an eyeliner and that's why I love it. It's great on my brown eyes. Love the soft buttery texture and once applied it'll last ALL day. I must have them all!

I love the creamy formulation of this pearlglide eye pencil! It is similar to the formulation of UD's 24/7 eye pencils, glides on like butter and is very easy to blend. I love the glitter in this pencil, very subtle with no fallout. Industrial is a daring teal blue that pairs well with blue eyes, but I think it would be pretty with green or brown eyes. Love it!

I love Pearlglides! They are definitely my favorite & best-performing eye pencils. Whether I wear these on my top lashline or lower, they last all day on me without smudging, and with very little fading. I can't wear them on my waterline because of the glitter, but to me, they are too beautiful to be wasted on the inner rims, anyway.
Industrial is the most recent pencil added to my Pearlglide collection. I can't get over what a GORGEOUS color it is, and why I never purchased it before!? The color is definitely unique: a medium, sparkly, electric blue with a hint of violet, depending on the lighting. I think I've even caught glimpses of green in this pencil. At my age ::ahem::, I have become a little self-conscious about wearing anything too frosty, too bright, too colorful, or too glittery. For some reason, I don't feel that way about Industrial. I like wearing this on my lower lash line with either a neutral eyeshadow-look on my lids, or when wearing pink or purple eyeshadows. I wore this with MAC Crystal eyeshadow on my lids, MAC Tendersmoke in the crease, Blacktrack gel liner on upper lashline, and Industrial on lower lashline and it made my eyes look bigger and brighter. (I think the blue in the Industrial makes the whites of my eyes look brighter for some reason.) I have given up on buying back-ups because I never use up things-- except for pencils. I do use them down till they are "nubs"... so I might actually buy another Industrial (since it is LE) because I like it that much. :)

I like MAC's pearlglide liners a lot - they are smooth, vibrant and have good staying power. I wish they didn't have the little bits of glitter though as it means I can't wear them on my waterline which is a real shame.

Industrial is a very pretty steel-blue shade. I don't wear a lot of blues on my eyes so it's not an item I get much use from, but in theory I would repurchase if I ever ran out and it wasn't LE. I didn't grab a back up though like I did for Almost Noir and Blackline that came out with this.

I like to wear this on my lower lash line with a blue shadow like cornflower pigment over it, with neutrals on the upper lid.

This is a pretty blue/teal with silver glitters that illuminate and bring brightness to eyes. There is truth in the name pearl-glide because it does glide on, no need to press hard. It is a bit soft however; so be careful when sharpening or applying. LOVE these pencils wish I could have gotten more before they sold out.

Gorgeous tealy-lt. blue shade. Works with a variety of other colors than just the obvious blues...like greens and purples.

Goes on smoothly and you can smudge it for a smokey look if you do it quickly before it dries...and it does dry fast.
Long-lasting, doesn't migrate, or fade.

I haven't tried this on my waterline as my eyes to tend water alot when I have something there that they don't like...which tends to be quite a lot of things, unfortunately.
-But I have heard other people saying it's good on there.
Try it at your own risk!!!

No glitter, just gorgeous shimmer.

I highly recommend getting a MAC eyeliner pencil sharpener for these. I've found that others' just tear my pearlglide liners up.:(

i adore this. i almost bypassed it. i ordered my pearlglides online via the MAC site and it really didn't look or sound like much of anything...i know, i know...you can't go by MAC's crappy web photos but still, i didn't think i *needed* it. well, fast forward a few weeks later and i'm standing in a MAC store swatching this pupper on my hand and drooling...wow! it's not easily described but it's freakin' gorgeous! it's like a steel blue-grey but when you look at it from different angles, it takes on a whole new life...i kinda wish i had bought two...i may have to break down and order another as i see the online store still has this color available. love the smooth and long-lasting pearlglide formula...

The color of this liner is amazing. It is a periwinkle blue that looks purple in certain light. This isn't a color you see often in liners. I think this color is overlooked because in the pencil it doesn't look like much of anything. The pearlglide liners have better staying power on me than any of MAC's other pencil liners and apply very smoothly.

The only problem I had with this liner is the glitter in it. I put it on my waterline (decent staying power), but the glitter irritated my eyes until it had all fallen off. This was my mistake, but I wish I could used this gorgeous color on my waterline. If it wasn't for the glitter, this would be perfect.

STUNNING color on me. Even a few of the guys I work with were like, "Wow, that color is really pretty." Guys. Straight guys. Noticed my eyeliner. Then I found out that this was an LE so I bought 6. :-)

I wear it with either Forgery very lightly applied or Moon's Reflection, again, very lightly applied. Really pretty. And lots of Kevin Aucoin Lash Curling Mascara in black

The first time I saw all the pearlglide eyeliners from the Art Supplies Collection I skipped over this one, but when I went back...I fell in LOVE.. this is such a beautiful periwinkle/lavender/grey color with baby blue iridescent sparkles, and there's really no other way of describing it other than amazing, so I got two:] really though..the swatches online don't do this justice<3

I have bought every pearlglide that I have been made aware and am in love with the colors available and sparkle but this particular color is the weakest of the bunch. I had trepidation when I tried it on my hand and smudged it and it wiped nearly completely off. Sorry to say that this lack of staying power continues on the eyes.
The color, though, is quite pretty- bluish steely grey.
