Saturday Cosmetics Review - L'Oreal Color Khol Eyeliners...

Good afternoon everyone I hope you have all enjoyed your Saturday, today I thought I would review for you my two L'oreal eyeliners. They are called 'Color Khol Eyeliner' by L'Oreal Paris and they retail for about £4.50 Buy here...

I have had these eyeliners for a couple of months now and I barely use them because I'm just not a heavy eye makeup person, I always look really over done with loads of eye makeup, but I still use it from time to time, and so I am certainly adequate to review these for you. I have the eyeliners in 2 colours, 101 midnight black and 135 iced chesnut (brown).


Both are standard eyeliner sized and claim to have 'INTENSITY, COMFORT, and PRECISION', any eyeliner lovers dream if you ask me. This is a pencil and not a liquid, I know some much prefer liquid, it just all depends on the look you're going for really.

I'll begin with the 101 Midnight black, such a mysterious name if you ask me! It feels quite sturdy, the gold writing on the black gloss pencil is really pleasing to the eye and looks darn posh and cool. Longetivity wise this pencil is quite a soft pencil, it's quite pigmented if you catch my drift, you don't have to press hard at all to get a line, this softness has both it's benefits and flaws, it draws a nice precise thin line, but it is also quite melty and so uses up quickly, and requires being stored in a fridge from time to time to harden up.



As you can see with the swatch, the line is precise and intense, I didn't even press very hard.


Moving onto the brown eyeliner...


This 135 Iced Chesnut is probably my favourite of the two, the colour is quite natural but still intense. It is also quite melty and soft, but this makes it perfect for smudging long the lash lines. I store this in the fridge every so often to harden the tip because it does soften and snap sometimes. This would be great for a natural look, or even better for a brown smokey eye with brown-ey eyeshadows.



SO here is an overall conclusion:


These eyeliner pencils are relatively cheap, they look really really good, their very precise and vibrant. The liner itself can go incredibly soft and melty but can easily be fixed with the help of the refrigerator. Both colours are nice and easily blended for various looks. I give them a 4/10.

Here are some looks you could try with the eyeliners:
