Loreal HIP Kohl Eyeliner

I've never been a person who is good at putting on makeup. Most of the time I just go without. But my sister-in-law turned me on to this eyeliner and the eyeshadows that go with it and wow what a difference! It's easy to put on, it stays on and it's pretty! I have never gotten compliments on my makeup until I started using this product. Thank you Loreal!!!

There really should be a tutorial for these. I think they are best on the waterline (inside the rim of the lower lashline where it meets the eyeball). How I use these: 1) Hold the applicator horizontally and use the side of the applicator to PRESS the pigment into the waterline. 2) Repeat slowly untill the entire waterline is lined. 3) Close eyes firmly to transfer the line to upper lid. Fill any gaps in the line with the point of the applicator. 4) Enjoy your dramatic smokey liner look!

Hard to keep from smudging

When I found this product I was so excited. It was easy to apply and stayed on all day without running or smearing. Then, after a couple weeks the applicator bent and it was hard to use. I bought a new one and used that applicator but it bent immediately. I put a toothpick in it and the product had hardened up. I mixed it up with the toothpick and used it a couple more days but it hardened up again. I would continue to use this product if L'Oreal could change it to stop clumping.

I was disappointed at how the bits flake onto your cheeks. this is not smudgeproof. It is dry in the container but does have a fabulous applicator. Not bad, but I prefer their bencils and I am disappointed of the 4 color selection there. i'd love to see these colors in the pencils.

I loved the product at first. It looks great and stays on great. But it is messy to apply (gets on checks). Then after a week or so, the texture changes and it doesn't go on as well and the tip of the applicator starts to curl. I bought a second one just to see if maybe the first one was just bad, but the same things happened. I love how it looks, I've been looking for something like it for a long time, but there are too many cons. I don't think I will be purchasing it again.

I thought I was purchasing a liquid eyeliner but what I got instead was a bit of a mess. It isn't liquid so I'm not sure if the product I purchased was flawed or faulty; or is it by design. When I attempted to apply the eyeliner, I ended up with a cheek full of powdery dark brown. Very frustrating since I had to remove my foundation and reapply. Is this eyeliner supposed to be powdery or liquid?

i bought the HIP eyeliner to have a softer look than a liquid. The brush is not a brush, but a piece of hard plastic. As I draw it across my lid, the powder falls on my cheek. Then it is very difficult to remove from there and I have to re-do my foundation...... This product is expensive to just sit in my makeup drawer....

I love the color and it does stay on like other reviews stated but the applicator is hard and doesn't seem to work well on the upper lid and yes a ton falls on my cheek and gets everywhere so I have to redo my powder. I had hoped to find a video on this site to show me what I am doing wrong but no luck. I am taking it back to the store.

I liked the color and how is stayed on my eyes but after a month or less the eyeliner brush curls and is hard to apply. I thought I must have did something to the brush at first so I bought another and the same thing happened. Very disappointed with applicator... difficult to use .
