What the gurus are saying

These water-based liquid eyeshadows excel as a base layer when paired with powder shadows, creating impressive depth and blendability with comfortable, lightweight wear. The dual-chrome finishes offer creative color-mixing potential. However, liquid eyeshadows have a learning curve, and those unfamiliar with the application technique may find them tricky to work with at first.

"They have some really cool looking dual chrome liquid eyeshadows but I'm not good with liquid eyeshadows at all. I'm just not precise enough to make them look good."

"I love the combination of powder on top of the paint, you can do so much more blending. It's one of the reasons that I love using the About Face Fluid Eye Paints as a base for my eyeshadow and then going in with powder because it just creates such gorgeous depth, and the wearability is insane when you do that. [...] They are water-based so they're very lightweight on the skin, and then going in with just some light amounts of powder, they're really comfortable."

"I'm going to be using the eye paints from About Face. These are the Fluid Eye Paints in the shade, [...] it's like a royal blue, almost purple. And then I have a crocodile rock, this like nice green. [...] Pick up a little bit of the blue. Mix it in with that green until I have the right color. And I have some lighter blues that I might add if I need to lighten it up a little bit. I have a little bit of blue Monday and put a little bit of that out. It's got more white in it."
