MAC Fluidlines – Midnight Snack & Added Goodness Swatches

ByCordelia

I picked up Midnight Snack and Added Goodness when the MAC Shop Cook collection came out. I love fluidlines and they tend to last forever for me. Since I swatched my neutrals and my greens, I figured I’d swatch all of my fluidlines.


Row 1 = Siahi – Midnight Blues – Waveline
Row 2 = Added Goodness – Blacktrack – Midnight Snack

Siahi – deep turquoise blue
Midnight Blues – blackened turquoise
Waveline – navy blue with gold glimmers
Blacktrack – flat black
Added Goodness – blackened mauve brown with a hint of grey
Midnight Snack – deep charcoal grey with silver glimmers

I’ve had Waveline for a long time. I’ve only ever managed to go through a Blacktrack. I tend to use black eyeliner more than any other color, so it makes sense that I’d go through it faster. The other colors are fun but I use less often. I can see myself using Midnight Snack a lot. I’m not sure about Added Goodness yet, but I’m looking forward to playing with it.

Do you like gel eyeliners? Do any of these shades appeal to you? Do you prefer complex liners like Added Goodness or straight eyeliner shades like Blacktrack? What’s your favorite gel eyeliner?

  1. Thanks for posting! I was considering Waveline, but thought it might be too similar to Siahi and Midnight Blues, which I already own. These swatches helped!

  3. Hey, I don’t seem to have your email address, but the mobile version of your site on iPhone has spammy drug links embedded in it. I wanted to forward over a couple of screenshots from my iPhone so that you could see it. I’d suspect any plugins you might be using to allow for a mobile version.

    Feel free to ping me if you’d like me to send the screenshots over. They’re littered throughout several posts.

  4. I love those first 2 blues! I only started liking gel liners after buying those Physician’s Formula ones. I think I prefer gel to pencil now because you never have to sharpen them 🙂

  5. Added Goodness looks awesome. I only have Blacktrack and i really like it . But i’ve used it so much and the liner was a bit dry . I added a few drops of Inglot Duraline and it was as good as new !

  7. Added Goodness is gorgeous. I’m all about taupe liners lately. I think my fave gel liner right now is Dark Diversion fluidline. It’s a nice blackened brown plum color. I think I must be applying it incorrectly though, because I’ve only used it a handful of times but there is already a huge amount gone.

    1. Hmm, I use a bent eyeliner brush and apply along the lash line. It should give you a clean sweep of color. How are you doing it?

      1. I use an angled liner brush. I’m thinking maybe it’s not stiff enough? It seems to pick up a whole lot of product and it’s a bit hard to control. I’ve never used a bent liner brush. Could you recommend one?

    1. What I like about them is that they don’t dry out like other liners I’ve tried, and they’ve lasted me a long time.
