Chambor #101 Carbon Black Smooth-On Eye Liner Review

Skin tone: Fair to medium
Eyes: Sensitive; contact lens wearer

Hello peeps,
You all know how much I love eyeliners because that is not just a make-up product; it has become a necessity for me! I don’t use it every day but when I go for an outing, I cannot step out of the house without applying winged eyeliner. And a few weeks ago, I ran out of my Maybelline Colossal Eyeliner pen and decided to try this. I have been using this since a couple of weeks now and I am totally impressed with it!

My Experience with Chambor #101 Carbon Black Smooth-On Eye Liner:

The Chambor smooth-on liner earlier used to come in 4 shades but now I could see only 2 shades on their website, so I think they have discontinued the green and the purple shade. But this one is always going to be there because it is one of the best products from them.

Packaging: The eyeliner comes in a little blue box with the eyeliner inside it. The box itself is very small and handy, so super easy to carry it around. The eyeliner comes in a glossy black packaging with a huge cap. The shade name is mentioned at the bottom as well. The eyeliner is pretty handy which is good but I wonder that they could have given a little more quantity, since this looks very less according to the price. The brush is a very thin one and it is great since I can create a single thin line or layer it couple of times to create a thick look. But this eyeliner dries super fast on my eyes, so I need to be cautious and close the cap pretty quickly.

Shade, Consistency, Finish and Pigmentation: The shade “Carbon black” is very true to its name. It is a deep dark black colour which creates an instant pop on the eyes. It looks absolutely beautiful and neat when I apply coats of it. I love creating the thick eyeliner look with this because it gives awesome results. The consistency is very smooth and glides nicely on my eyes creating a nice and a neat look. But I need to be really quick while applying because it dries up very soon. Also, I cannot really make a mistake of going wrong with the line because it dries and then I need to take it off. It settles down to a beautiful matte finish which looks super classy. The pigmentation is super intense and appears up in the first swipe itself although I love layering for a more defined look.

Staying Power: The staying power is more than incredible! It lasts all day long and I think I removed it after 10 hours and it looked the same as freshly applied. My bestie loves this liner and she actually sleeps with it because she is a lazy bum, and it does stay intact the next morning too. It is water-proof and won’t smudge or budge no matter what you do. It needs a super strong makeup remover to come off. But that’s the difficult part about this one. It needs a lot of tugging and pulling to come off and the usual make-up removers won’t help, so I have to use an oil cleanser and then a make-up remover. But overall, it is great since I just have to apply it and then forget.
