MAC LE Fluidline Eye Pencils from A Novel Romance Collection - Review, Swatches

MAC launched A Novel Romance Collection in Kolkata last week and as expected, 90% of the collection sold out on the first day itself. This time I wasn't really too excited about the lipsticks but what I really wanted were the Limited Edition Fluidline eye pencils. And a couple of the Electric cool eye shadows too but again, sold out :(. I managed to get three Fluidlines for myself - Black Brilliance (basic jet black), Water Willow (a dark black-green) and Evil Twin (Blue purple). I also wanted to get Metropolis and Earth Sign but both were unavailable :(.
