Blackest of Black

I'm always on the quest for the best eyeliner, and I had the chance to pick up the famous Urban Decay 24/7 Perversion Waterproof eyeliner. I have zero, and it's been a steady favorite for a few years now but it's no where as near black as Perversion.
In my rotation as well is MAC Smoulder, it's a great pencil to smudge out. Lets take a look at how dark it is.

MAC Kohl in Smoulder

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on Pencil in Zero

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on Pencil in Perversion

L-R MAC Smoulder, Urban Decay Zero, Urban Decay Perversion

They're all pretty dark, but I have to say that Perversion is the darkest I have now. My next eyeliner to hunt down is MAC Feline. That's also rumored to be the darkest black eyeliner.

The Showdown - Brush Cleaner

I did a deep cleaning of ALL my brushes today. I thought I'd do a little show down between my ol' faithful MAC Brush Cleanser and the rookie Crown Brush Make-up Brush Cleaner



MAC Brush Cleanser
235ml
$13 US
Pink in colour
Pros:
Foams
Gets brushes clean of powders
Anti-bacterial
Cons:
Doesn't work too good on emollient products like concealer, lipstick, foundation

Crown Brush Make-up Cleaner
250ml
$10 (I picked mine up for $5 at IMATS)
Green in colour (Pink on the website)
Pros:
Cheap
Anti-bacterial
Cons:
Smells strongly of alcohol (although it claims it has a vanilla scent)
Doesn't foam
Doesn't work very well on emollient products like concealer, lipstick, foundation

I really can't get over the smell of the Crown Brush cleaner. It's very strong. I think I'll stick with the MAC Brush Cleanser.

Tip: I put mine in a spray bottle, and mix in 1/3rd water, this way I can spot clean easily, and my cleaner lasts longer.
