This is my absolute favorite eyeliner ever. I know that everyone's preferences/interactions are different when it comes to cosmetics, but this one works the best for me. I have been using it for several years now and it is the only one I will continue to use, except when I want to add some liquid liner for a special night out. I prefer a more smudged eyeliner look than a hard and straight line, so this is ideal for me since the eyeliner itself is softer than a pencil and it has the smudge tool. Since I smudge it anyway, I can apply this relatively quickly without worrying about getting a perfectly straight and even line. Even though it is softer than a pencil, it is not so soft as a liquid liner/brush, so it is easier for me to control and apply and it is dry right away. It is dark, but it is not as dark and defined as a liquid liner. You will get a slightly different look depending on whether you apply it before eye shadow or after. Eye shadow will stick to the top of it, so it's less defined (more blended in?) if you apply the eyeliner first. If you apply the liner after the shadow, then it takes a little bit more effort because the liner will kindof wipe away the eye shadow first before it actually sticks to your eyelid, so you have to make a couple passes. But the end result will be a bit more definition of the line. And there is obviously more definition if you don't smudge it afterward. When I want a darker, more defined line, I use this liner as a sort of primer to liquid liner. I will apply this one and smudge it in as usual, then top it with a thin coat of liquid liner. More color and definition, but less worry about making the liquid line 100% correct and thick since the undercoat of liner shades in any gaps. It also comes with a sharpener attached to the smudger, but I never use it since I'm not going for that thin/defined line and I'm smudging it anyway; sharpening the crayon just wastes product. Once applied, it lasts me all day as long as I'm not rubbing my eyes or something. Even after swimming or sleeping, there is enough there to still look ok (again, since I smudge it...if I was going for a defined thin line, it probably wouldn't look right after swimming or sleeping). The only problem I have with this eyeliner is the casing - the clear smudger cap breaks and detaches easily in a bag and the casing around the smudger/sharpener cracks easily which causes the smudger/sharpener to fall out completely (and it always ends up at the bottom of my makeup bag, of course). The crayon itself often detaches from the retracting mechanism so that you can only advance it and not retract it.

I have used this #loreal infallible never fail mechanical eye liner for years ! My eyes are very sensitive & water easily with any eye product I use. I worked in the cosmetics industry for years. I had access too many of the high end eye products complimentary working for these companies. Yes, I was extremely lucky !! But, I always purchased this eyeliner to use with other products. It is smudge resistant, nice & creamy delivering rich long lasting wear & color. I highly recommend you try this eyeliner . Great price & value ! Thank you for reading my review. Janelle

I have been very happy with this liner. It is very easy to apply and the smudge/eraser end worked really well too. Pros: -Easy to apply -Apply smoothly -Lasts for about 8 hours or longer. I usually remove makeup by that point Cons: -Common sense of course, but make sure you recap it. It dries out quickly if you leave the cap off.

Goes on smoothly, stays on until I take it off. The blue is softer that black or dark brown but isn't overtly colorful.

I love this eyeliner and have been using it for years. It's only of the only eyeliners that stays put but also doesn't burn my eyes when I take it off. It's waterproof but comes off easily with eye makeup remover or coconut oil. It smudges nicely if you choose to smudge or blend but it also stays crisp if you like a more crisp line.

Great color, goes on smooth and lasts all day into the night. And my favorite thing is it doesn't give you raccoon eyes! I tried another popular eyeliner along with this one and it leaves marks under my eyes. The L'Oreal doesn't at all.

This product has a soft pencil which doesn't smear. The end has a soft white tip to use for blending if desired. BUT it is frustrating how often the color pencil falls out, drops and breaks. If one could simply screw up the pencil when needed without dropping or breaking I would happily endorse the product with a full endorsement.

The eye liner goes on very well, and lasts all day.

This Infallible Eyeliner by L'Oreal is very reliable and works great. It goes on smoothly and lasts a long time. I have other eyeliners but I prefer this one. I like the smudger tip on the end of it. I bought the carbon black which I think is a bit too dark for me but that is my mistake. Next time I will just buy regular black. I like the fact that it is sturdy and soft at the same time. I have used this eyeliner for a long time and never had the point break.

No se corre, dura todo el día. Aplicación suave aunque no pude sacar punta fina para una línea muy delgada. Negro intenso.

This is a really good liner. It doesn't smudge and stays on for a long period of time.

Great eyeliner, would recommend. The only problem, it took ages to arrive, so four stars.

It's beautifully soft to go on easily and stayed on. Thank you
