Tarina Tarantino Tommy Jet Eye Dream Hyperliner

Tarina Tarantino Tommy Jet Eye Dream Hyperliner ($15.00 for 0.04 oz.) is described as "deepest black." I'd argue it's a dark black, but it's not the richest, darkest black eyeliner I've come across. It's not soft, and it's a bit darker...

Tarina Tarantino Mr. Gold/Mr. Silver Eyedream Highlight Duo

Mr. Gold is a medium yellow gold with a soft, frosted shimmer finish. The color payoff is good, but it could be a little denser in texture to give it really excellent color payoff.
