L’Oreal Paris Infallible Grip Mechanical Gel Eyeliner Pencil, Smudge-Resistant, Waterproof Eye Make-up with As much as 36HR Put on, Shiny Nude, 0.01 Oz

Bright Nude was a bit darker than I expected
*The lighting is not great in my video. For better reference, I have between very light to light and neutral toned skin on the back of my hand.My face color is actually darker… falling between light and light-medium and taking on a slightly warmer tone (when comparing to the spectrum of very basic concealer colors found in most drugstores). This will explain how I’m able to use the eyeliner the way I do given the way it shows up on my hand in the video.I thought this liner would be a bit lighter than it actually was. Turns out it was just a 1-2 shades light enough for me to use as a faint highlighter on my brow bones and under my eyes, towards the inner corners.It doesn’t look good on my water-line (right above the lower lashes). It ends up making me look sickly and weird if I try to wear it like that. It matches too closely with my overall skin color/shade and makes the little bit of warmth I have on my face look like a washed out yellow tone. It basically makes me look like I have glossy eyeballs, tiny eyes, a weird bottom lash line, and questionable for jaundice. (It might work better on the water line for people with darker skin or possibly cooler skin tones.)I’d consider the bright nude to have a mostly neutral tone. People with pale, fair skin likely couldn’t use it for highlighting and brightening. I think it would be too dark. It’s like a pale nude color. Those with fair to light skin may actually be able to use it as a concealer. (It would probably make a great spot concealer, TBH.)This liner has a lot of great qualities about it…The mechanical pencil design works well. The liner is firm enough not to melt all over the place if you try to apply it like an eyeliner. But it goes on smoothly so there’s no need for a lot of pressure or tugging. The cap seals securely and prevents it from drying out. The pigment is rich, even for such a pale color.There is a pencil sharpener built in on the end with the sponge tip. I haven’t needed to use it for this liner given I use it as a highlighter/brightener. But it has come in handy with my other eyeliner that doesn’t have a built in sharpener. The sponge tip is adequate and actually works for blending. I use it a little aggressively and haven’t had any plastic or rough parts poke thru yet. It’s easy to wash, too.Even though the liner glides on smooth and creamy, it sets very quickly. I guess this could be a good or bad thing depending on how you want to use the liner. I could see it being beneficial for those who are able to use this on their water line. But for me, it’s a bit of a nuisance. (Watch the video & see why.)This liner is amongst the last things I’ll apply to my face when wearing make up. It’s because I have to move fast to get it to blend smoothly. I can’t just drag the color over an area and wait to blend it later. I really don’t have much time to fumble with other things, like looking for my favorite beauty blender. When this thing sets in place, it’s pretty much set. It’s easily blendable within the first 10 seconds of applying it. After that, it begins to “dry” in place. I’m still able to blend it after 10 seconds, but the more I wait, the more difficult it becomes to blend away all streakiness. If I wait more than a minute, it becomes too much of a hassle to try to blend around my sensitive eye skin.But this liner will blend. And if done properly, it blends beautifully. It almost seems to disappear into my skin or become gradient with other colors. Sometimes I’ll blend this with dots of frosted white liner for a brighter effect. The bright nude color is matte, so even though it works as a highlighter, the effect it has is pretty subtle.I would buy this item again. I would recommend it to others. I would just caution that it may not work out as expected if you’re skin is very light or beyond. Still, it’s blendable. It makes a great base for powder eye shadow and blends well with other creamy stick liners.I’d be interested in buying other colors from this line. The bright nude liner has been impressively smudge resistant, waterproof, and long lasting. I don’t have to touch up thru out the day. I just have to worry about applying it properly the first time and getting it all off at night.

Decent pencil
Decent price. Not as long lasting and I would have liked but good for the price

Perfection
Gorgeous color, glides on smoothly, on top lid, under lashes, as wide or thin as you like, last all day/night, no sharpening, just roll it up to use more. Cannot find in stores anywhere. So thankful Amazon offers it at such a great price. Everyday wear, can’t live without it.Highly Recommend

Very nice
Beautifull color easy to use. Use it every day long lasting. Easy to remove. Great value for the money.

I never thought this would happen but I have officially retired my regular gel eyeliner and brush combo. I was using L’Oreal Infallible Gel Pot Eyeliner in Espresso as well as their Bronze shade and let me tell you I was using them for a very long time. Unfortunately, they have pretty much discontinued those 2 colours. I found black in that gel pot eyeliner but the formula is slightly different and it smudges a bit. I am a creature of habit so I wanted to try the pencil version of the L’Oreal Infallible Eyeliner and holy smokes this pencil is my new favourite makeup item. It glides on so easily, it doesn’t smudge, smear or flake. it has a built in sharpener and there is a smudger on the opposite end. I’m glad that I decided to try this eyeliner pencil out considering my time was running out using the other type of liner. I would recommend.

Very easy to use. Compact. Unfortunately, it runs. I am still looking for an eyeliner that does not run!

I have bought several eye kohl/liners from different brands in search of something creamy that stays long and gives a smokey effect too. And this product does it all. What I liked about it:-1. Stays for longer hours.2. It did not smudge even though it had a creamy texture.3. Reasonable price.4. Easy to apply and don’t have to force your hands which you do when you use a pencil eyeliner.These are the few things I was looking for, and it fulfilled all of them. Happy to buy it and would buy it again.
