In Detail L’Oreal Infallible Silkissime Eyeliner Cobalt Blue Review, Swatches and My Experience
The Silkissime eyeliners come in a very basic pencil eyeliner form. The pencil is made out of plastic and the pigment is inside like lead. The colour on the outside corresponds exactly to the shade of the pencil which makes is super convenient. The only problem is, I need to sharpen it since it is a pencil pigment. I mean I don’t mind it but I definitely would find a twist up retractable packaging better. Apart from that I really appreciate the fact that they gave a complete ingredient list at the back side of the packaging of the product.
L’Oreal Infallible Silkissime Eyeliner Cobalt Blue is a very rich and vibrant cobalt blue shade. Its deep, intense and bright. It sets into a very satin finish. Its indeed is a treat for the ladies who like to wear dark coloured eyeliners. It has absolutely no shimmers. Its a true flat colour shade. This shade in particular will suit all the skin tones. The texture of the eyeliner is super creamy and glides along the skin very much like silk. I don’t even have to apply much pressure. It applies very smoothly without slightest tugging or dragging. Its like running a cube of butter in a hot pan 😛 . The pigmentation is very intense. As you can see in the swatches below, it gives almost 100% full pigmentation in a single stroke. You can build it up for a more dramatic effect. Really love the texture and the pigmentation.
This eyeliner sets pretty quickly after applying. So if you want to smoke it out, you need to be quick. Once it sets, it does not smudge or transfer at all. It maintains its colour intensity for approximately 8-9 hours. After 9 hours I can notice slight fading from the outer corners of the eyes. After 12 hours, there was significant fading and only 1/3rd of the pigment was left behind.
To take it off completely, one definitely needs a makeup remover. It may seem like its coming out with normal face wash, if you notice closely, there is still some pigment remaining. So you want to take it off with a good makeup remover. I am completely in love with this eyeliner. This is honestly one of the best gold eyeliner that I have ever used. The only thing I would change about it is the packaging because I really hate sharpening products. Because this has such a buttery formula, it does get used up pretty fast and I have to sharpen it repeatedly.

CONs of L’Oreal Infallible Silkissime Eyeliner Cobalt Blue
1. Pencil form is a pain to sharpen. Because the formula of the eyeliner is super creamy, I have to sharpen it after every couple of uses.
2. The eyeliner gets over fast, costly as compared to other drugstore eyeliners in the market.
3. Does not really stay put for 16 hours.
MBF Advices
1. The eyeliner is very soft and creamy, so make sure to always put the cap on after use.
2. This is such an amazing formula that you can apply it with a ease of a liquid eyeliner on the upper lash line.
3. Sharpen it with a proper pencil makeup sharpener. Don’t try to sharpen it with blade or it might result in product wastage.
