Matte Finish

I use Creamy Natural 011. Smooth color, clean and light. Excellent value. One of the only pressed powders that does NOT come with a mirror, so it's cheaper. And who needs a new mirror every time you run out of face powder?

Base liner

I use this to pre-line my eyes; to make sure each eye relatively matches and one line isn't curling up while the other is pointing straight out (happens a lot for me). Then I go over the line with liquid liner. Alone, it spreads and the line disappears. I end up looking like I need more sleep. It's good for waterline, if the pencil is warm, but it doesn't last all day in it's perfect line. It's nice to have under the liquid liner cuz it smudges into the lash line and there's no separation between your liner and lashes. I would recommend this product.

Definitely temporary

Works for a few hours, but after a while I can feel my lower lid sticking to my upper lid. And then the edges of my lashes start flyin away. It gets annoying, and I have the hardest time getting the glue back off my eyelid. Peels off the lashes very easily though. Quick clean-up. Good for a short night out. Dries clear, but takes a while to stick.

Doesn't smudge or "travel"

I use this for everyday purposes. The black is solid and it stays in place. Only complaints: it does flake after a long day for me, or after a nap, and it's got a plastic-like shine to it. I have to matte it down with shadow. The brush is blunt, so it creates a thicker line. It takes some getting used to. Lasts pretty long and wears well for me. Also, it comes off clean. It literally peels off, and has no "raccoon eye" effect.
