Cake Eyeliner

I worked for Studio Gear *cough cough* a "while" ago. ;) This brand is seriously underated as everything I have used from them is excellent. I love this cake eyeliner. It works great as a smooth liner, especially when I'm doing fine detail work. Because it is water based, it doesn't drag on the skin, allowing me to make great swirls, arches and dots.

I'm so glad this review was featured. I didn't think anyone knew about Studio Gear. But I have to agree with Anna, it way better then gel liners! I use them on myself and in my pro kit! I usually just use Cinema Secrets moisture spray to wet the black one to use as liner. I also have the brown one and I use that for my eyebrows. I just use a clear brow gel to wet it. They both stay on all day! I prefer cake liners because they just have a really thin and smooth consistency while being very dark, while gel liners tend to be too goopy, if that makes sense. Great stuff!

I've been looking for a cake eyeliner for about a year now, but there are few brands that make them. I finally tried the studio gear cake, and after about three weeks of using it, I've already decided that I will never buy another gel liner. This has every. single. gel. liner. beat.

It looks like an eyeshadow pan, but add a drop of water, or mixing medium, or eye drops, or any liquid you like, and it turns into the smoothest, blackest eyeliner ever--blacker than UD perversion liquid liner, which I always thought was pretty black. I can use it with my tiniest brushes and with my biggest angled liner brush. I always have smooth and fluid control.

The wear is incredible, lasting all day without fading when I use just a drop of water, but when I use a drop of Pixi Eye Color Sealer it's pretty close to waterproof.

It's my liner must-have.
