MAC Fluidline Review and Swatches
I absolutely *love* MAC Fluidlines! I have Sweet Sage, Blue Peep, Blacktrack and Delphic and I am planning on getting more!
Fluidlines are basically gel liners and they are a dream to apply. All you have to do is dip the brush into the product, pull your skin taut and they glide right on. They apply a little moist but dry fast and stay put all day. Plus since they come in bright, funky colors, you can also use them as an eyeshadow base. I did that with Sweet Sage and it did not crease a bit. Highly recommended!

Stila Smudgepot Review
Stila Smudgepot was my first gel liner and used to be my holy grail until I tried MAC Fluidline.
Compared to the Fluidline, the Smudgepot comes in your everyday conservative colors like black, brown, dark plum etc. and is more suitable for those who are color-shy.
The texture is also different. While it does apply smoothly, the Smudgepot feels drier and firmer. Mine dried up in less than a year even though there was still a lot of product left. I will not repurchase this.
Stila Smudgepot is available at Sephora and Beauty.com for $18.
Majolica Majorca Automatic Liner Review
I was totally sucked into Majolica Majorca Automatic Liner by its pretty commericals and cute packaging.
While the promo pictures show a great selection of gorgeous, metallic colors, the liner comes in softer colors and is not as pigmented as shown. I have BK999, which is supposedly a rich black but it shows up a dark gray at most on my NC30 skin. To get a solid black line, you really need to layer it on.
The formula is also a little runnier than my favorite Inoui Liner, making it harder to draw a fine line.
I do like the brush a lot though – the bristles are very soft and do not tug at my skin.
For ~$20, there are definitely better options out there. I will not repurchase.
