When it comes to Halloween, you know orange is often paired with black, which is the inspiration for this post! 🙂 Do you have a go-to black eyeliner or eyeshadow?
I really love the Shiseido Shimmering Cream Eye Color in Caviar. A beautifully deep black with shimmer. So nice for a smoky eye or even just as liner. 😀
Awesome! 😀
Great to see so much top performance black shades especially the eye liners! Still I would like to recommend Clinique’s True Black gel eye liner. Have you tried it Christine? I wonder what you think of it!
I don’t think I have! Is it the one in a pot?
Yes it is! I can’t find it on Sephora website now but I found a few on the shelf in my local Sephora store. I hope Clinique still has it!
Blacktrack really is a good one, I use it a lot!
Classic black!
As much as I love black, I have very little black makeup! I don’t even have a black NP right now!
I can hardly believe it 😉
I have Blackout from this list, but that’s it.
My favorites: Eyes — MUFE S-102 Onyx; ColourPop Rumer Willis Raven; Tarte Fashionista; Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Perversion; Maybelline Eye Studio Master Drama Cream Pencil Eyeliner in Midnight Master; Tarte Clay Pot Waterproof Liner in Black. Lips — Jeffree Star Velour Liquid Lipstick in Weirdo; Wet n Wild Fergie Cream Lipstick in Pagan Angel; Rimmel London Stay Glossy Lip Gloss in 480 Black Diva; MUFE Artist Plexi-Gloss in Beetle; Nyx Wicked Lippie in Coldhearted.
S102 Onyx is nice — almost matte but more blendable and rich.
That’s the one I ( very stupidly) keep calling “MUFE Black Satin! Idky?!? LoL ???
It is a fitting name for it. 🙂
I just love it. It’s practically a cream. I’ve used it to do winged liner, even.
It is absolutely perfect for that! I’ve done that a couple times when I just didn’t feel like using my black gel pot, and it worked really well!
Inglot gel liner #77 it’s very black
I’ve heard a lot of good things about Inglot’s Gel Eyeliners!
For any day of the year (but Halloween in particular), wet-n-wild black gel eyeliner (not the Fergie one) is the best thing ever. It’s cheap, it has a really creamy texture, and lasts a really long time.
Nice to know! Thank you for sharing, Amy 😀
I wish you could do this with grey (shade) as it’s the shade that suits me most.. Mucho Thanks in advance Christine
Thanks for the suggestion!
I think this is about the first time you have done shades of black. For those black lovers, this list would be heaven.
It might be, lol!
If it’s black and I can put it on my eyes or nails, I’m down with that all the way! Totally LOVING that Chanel Mirifique, that reminds me of a bright starry night sky! My favorite black e/s’s that I presently own are: UD Blackout, MAC Nerhu, and MUFE Black Satin. ?
Hahaha! 😉
Just realized from Rachel R’s comment above it’s actually: MUFE S102 Onyx, not “Black Satin”! ?
Blackout sure is black.
I only have, or rather had Blacktrack, I had to toss it as it had dried so badly it was almost impossibel to use it, and it went on in clumps. It’s a favourite, so I’ll repurchase it.
I now feel a need for Batty and MUFE D104, now just to remember the number. Sephora here only use the numbers.
I really loved this top 10. Black is, you know, black. 🙂
Batty is gorgeous!
