When I heard MAC was launching new fluidlines I was ridiculously giddy. The last time I was this over the moon was when my hubby surprised me with tickets to a recent Joan Jett concert – I immediately turned into a screaming sixteen year old.
I didn’t scream when I brought home fluidlines in Avenue and Dark Envy (from the New Black sub-collection of the MAC Me Over collection)…but I did feel a pulse of excitement in my throat.
Gel liners are my eyeliner of choice. They glide on easily creating a precise line – as thin or thick as you choose – and wear like nobody’s business. Seriously, MAC fluidline dries within about 10-15 seconds of applying and won’t smudge, flake or come off until you’re ready (have eye makeup remover handy).
•Avenue is a stunning deep blackened brown with subtle gold flecks of fine glitter. If you get one thing from the MAC Me Over collection I would suggest this liner. Because of the glitter, I also suggest you keep this away from the waterline. As a side note, I can’t help but wonder if Joan would wear this…I’m thinking, yes.
•Dark Envy is described as a blackened green but it is instead a deep hunter green with a slight metallic or pearl finish (could it be both?). It does not go on as intensely in color as it is in the pot but you can build the color to deep levels of green goodness. With my passion for green, Dark Envy will be in heavy rotation this fall.
Both fluidlines can be used in the obvious way, as an eyeliner, and work beautifully as base for eyeshadows.
You drive me wild fluidline…you really do!
Availability: A Limited Edition collection, you can find the fluidlines at MAC stores, MAC counters and maccosmetics.com while supplies last.
Price: $15
4/5 Smooches: Pour me another!

I just got my hands on a few pieces from the MAC Me Over collection and wanted to share a few photos with you. Although I haven’t had ample time to play with the items I am so far very pleased with what I picked up.
I’m especially thrilled with the Lady Grey eyeshadow quad – the colors are divine and from what I can tell, has very nice pigmentation.
And please don’t get me started on the Avenue and Dark Envy fluidlines. Have I mentioned I may be slightly more addicted to fluidlines than chocolate chip cookies? Yeah, it’s true!
I’ll be sharing swatches in the next day or so along with my “official statement” about the collection.

P.S. MAC Me Over contain limited edition items (surprise, surprise). Rumor has it some stores launched today with dismal excitement while others sold out of items quickly (like the MAC pro store I got my items through). If you’re interested in any of the LE items, you may want to move quickly.
P.P.S. The MAC Me Over collection is available now in the u.s. at all MAC stores, MAC counters and on maccosmetics.com.
