Hey friends! While I am trying and testing the brand new launches of L’oreal Paris Infallible Makeup range made especially for the 2016 Cannes film festival, I told you how much I loved the Never Fail Lip Liner in shade Mauve (Read review here). I was also very pleased with the choice of products sent by the L’oreal team to me for review and consideration. One of the other product that I was particularly excited about is the Silkissime Eyeliner in shade Pure Purple. I am always biased towards deep purples and dark greens if I ever want to venture out of my blacks and browns for eyes :P Read on to know more about this eye pencil.

How to use: Apply along the top and bottom lash line beginning in the inner corner of the eye and working outward. To sharpen, use L’Oréal’s Dual Sharpener and turn the pencil gently to create a working tip.

Packaging: The Silkissime eyeliner is a pencil liner which needs to be sharpened. It comes with a plastic cap and is encased in a basic paper packaging like this. It would require a sharpener because it’s not provided in the pack.

My take: L’oreal Paris Infallible Silkissime eyeliner in shade Pure purple is one of the smoothest pencil I have used so far! It glides on like butter literally and I was amazed at the intense pigmentation it gives at single swipe. But a downside of this buttery texture is it would require sharpening pretty often which in turn would lead to product wastage. Personally, I don’t like creating sharp lines with colored liners, and so a blunt tip works for me!

The shade Pure Purple, true to its name, is a rich and bright purple! This shade can be easily rocked by anyone. On Indian skin tone, I would suggest using this with a combination of kohl or brown eye pencil so that it becomes more wearable.
Now talking about staying power, when I swatched this “S” on my hand for you guys to check, it seemed so buttery smooth that I felt it would smudge like crazy. But wonders of wonders! Within seconds it sets itself and no amount of rubbing could budge it (And it was only a single swipe). So I would really suggest you have a good makeup remover /oil close at hand when you want to take off this liner at the end of the day. On me, it stayed for over 8 hours without smudging even a bit :D

I am so amazed by this formula that now I am eyeing the shades Black, Charcoal, Plum and Gold from the range. Given its silky formula, I believe these would serve as great eyeshadow bases as well! It also didn’t irritate my waterline (I wear contact lenses) and didn’t feel sticky or heavy like most “buttery” formula pencils.
Rate: A FULL 5/5 :D
