L’Oreal Paris Infallible Grip Mechanical Gel Eyeliner Pencil, Smudge-Resistant, Waterproof Eye Makeup with Up to 36HR Wear, Brown Denim, 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.

Very smooth application
I have very green eyes and it is difficult to find green eyeliner that doesn’t pull when applying. This color is a bright teal-green, waxy so it goes on easily. Stays on all day at work. Love the quality but not thrilled with the color. Will use it, though.

Good product for older eyes.
This works pretty well on my older eyes. Stays on OK but I have very watery eyes. Nice color and goes on smoothly.

Lasts and lasts does not fade!
I have allergies but this eyeliner does not make my eyes itchy. It stays on FOREVER, lol. Really it does and I am glad I finally found something that I don’t have to worry about it fading away. I even tried the colors on the back of my hand and after I took a shower I noticed it still hadn’t budged. My new one and only eyeliner from now on. Also, it is not expensive so that is a real plus!

The L’Oréal Paris Infallible Grip 36H Gel Mechanical White Liner in “Polar White” has become a staple in my makeup routine! The color is a true, vibrant white that instantly brightens my eyes and makes me look more awake.The texture is smooth and glides effortlessly across my waterline without tugging. It’s highly pigmented, so you don’t need multiple passes to get a bold look. Plus, it dries quickly and stays put all day long—no smudging or fading, even after hours of wear!The fact that it’s waterproof is a huge bonus. I’ve worn it through workouts and humid days, and it holds up perfectly. The mechanical design is super convenient; no sharpening is needed, which saves time.Whether you’re going for a subtle highlight or a bold graphic liner look, this eyeliner delivers. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to brighten their eyes with a long-lasting formula! 🖤

I love that it has a smudger on the end of it, It works great when putting a dot of eyeliner on the side of your eye and using the smudger to create a nice winged look! Super easy and quick to start the day

This has become my go to. I used to use Marc Jacobs gel eyeliner until they discontinued it. I switched to Sephora ultimate waterproof gel for about half the price until it was discontinued as well. 🤷🏼‍♀️ This was suggested to me, and not only is it two thirds the price of the Sephora eyeliner (less than a third of the Marc Jacobs), it works just as well as both of them. It lasts all day, and goes on really smoothly.
