Eyeliner Comparison Swatches - MAC Black Line, Clinique Egyptian, Stila Moray

I thought that Black Line was very similar to Stila Moray Smudgestick & Clinique Egyptian Creamshaper.  So, today I decided to swatch them side by side and see.

If we consider Black Line the "control", then:

• Egyptian's base is more brown than Black Line's.
• Moray is almost spot on, but it needs more black.  You could probably get the same effect by using Moray over a black liner.  
• They all felt pretty much the same when I applied them, but when I tried to smudge them, Moray & Black Line didn't budge, while Egyptian smeared.
• Stila is $20 for .01oz, Clinique is $14.50 for .04oz, MAC is $14.50 for .04oz.

Here are comparisons to a few other liners just for fun.  :)

Clinique Maple Blossom (Frosty Neutral)

For this look, I used the following products: Urban Decay Primer Potion Clinique Maple Blossom Duo MAC Brule MAC Black Russian Pearlglide (waterline & on top) Urban Decay Yeyo 24/7 Liner (inner corner) Lined underneath w/ dark part of Maple Blossom NYX Doll Eye Mascara Anastasia Brow Powder Duo in Ash Blonde Notes: I used my brushes ever so slightly damp with Maple Blossom so that I'd get more color payoff. Also, in my opinion when you use your brushes damp, the colors blend into one another much better. I NEVER use a damp brush for whatever color I use on my browbone.
