^oh, I should add too that (at least on me) it stayed very nice all day, not creasing like some of the other CCBs can do. They normally do not crease on me like some people, but this one seemed better than any I have.

Is your skin dry ....Because they don't really crease on me either and I wondered if it had something to do with having dry skin

I don't have problems with CCBs creasing on me either and my skin tends to be a bit dry. I also don't use very much in the way of eye moisturizer on my eye lid before applying makeup and always gently blot off any excess, before applying my base, so that might be part of the reason I don't have a lot of problems with creasing.

And I've decided I need the greasepaint stick again. Someone smack me upside the head.

^^^ we won't smack you...I think I want it too...But do I need this one and the one from DSquared...I am thinking the one from Dsquared will get more use since it is said to be solid black...I still wonder about these two blacks

My impatience is getting the best of me. I think I might end up going to Nordstroms tomorrow for my style black instead of waiting until Thursday. I don't need to set up an appointment and talk to an MA. I know what I'm doing, so just give me my stuff.

My rationale is that it would be like a portable paint pot/eyeliner, that I could throw in my makeup bag and go. That plus I'm B2M for all the MES and skipping the holiday piggie sets now, so I won't really be breaking my budget if I do so.
Also isn't the Intense Black from D-Squared the same as the one in Style Black?

Greasepaint Stick - Intense black with subtle red/purple shimmer

The finish being matte and it being plain black are incorrect/mistakes/rumors. The name of this Greasepaint Stick is Greasepaint Stick. There is no specific name, as opposed to the additional two in DSquared which have specific names. Hope that clears things up!


or maybe I'm just confuziled.

I was confused too...But wanted to keep my head in tact....From what Bunny posted the one in Style Black has pink/purple sparkles......the one in Dsquared is solid Black...and that is what I want Solid Black...I too am confused because they are listed the same...But the one I saw for SB clearly had purple and pink sparkles in it

So I am wondering if the one on in DSquared is solid Black or not...I will ask my MA because I am not getting it and don't want to frustrate people by continuing to ask since they are called the same dang thing on the collection site

I thought that both the black grease p/s here and from DSquared are the same.
hmm.gif
So should I get the one here or the one from DSquared? Not helping with the confusion, sorry.

Can we change the title of this thread to the "Greasepaints Drove me to Drink" thread?

Yeah, I'm seriously confused. I just want to know if they're truly different or it's just the photos are off.
on the other hand, wine is good...

Wait a minute ladies, is the greaspaint stick workable on the waterline or no? If so, then I have to get it (and I will sob becuase I was so set on only 3 items). I really want to grab and run so I won't be tempted to buy everything.

The mac video is awesome. I'm going to get a raspberry liner from makeup forever. Their lipliners are the best b/c they are so creamy that you can use the point to fill in your entire lip. They have a great range of colors. It'll help enhance the black lippie. I already have a lip brush. I can't believe I'm going to use a liner and a brush.
