Chanel Le Crayon Khol Intense Eye Pencil Noir Review
Chanel Le Crayon Khol Intense Eye Pencil Noir Claims : Perfect for a smoky eye, this soft pencil quickly achieves a dramatic look. A special blend of colour and pearl pigments provides a rich, intense line with a semi-matte finish. Specially formulated to glide gently over the eyelid, the liner is safe for use in rim of the eye. A companion sharpener ensures the pencil is always ready for lining.
Price : Rs 1,250 for 1.4 gm
Ingredients :
Chanel Le Crayon Khol Intense Eye Pencil Noir 61 is a black colored eye khol. It is a sharpenable eye pencil.The pencil is accompanied with a sharpener.
Liked and Dislikes :
- Look and Feel : It is a sharpenable pencil with black outer covering. The outer covering is semi matte . The lettering on the pencil is done with white. It looks quite classy , sleek and pretty.
- Texture : The texture is slightly powdery. It’s like a dry-black-ultra-smooth soot is made a little creamy and somehow moulded in a pencil form..if that makes sense? It’s not the creamy creamy eye kohl. It’s like velvetty powdery and one swipe of kajal will give you loads of color on your waterline. Feels super smooth when applied. Also, it never tugs the eyes and feels soft.
- Staying Power : It goes pretty strong on my waterline for good 3-4 hours but my eyes have become quite watery of late.Even when I laugh my eyes water a lot. 😛 If you don’t have such watery eyes this may even go longer.
- It smudges but it does not travel all the way down to your under eyes. Just set it with a powder eye shadow and you’d be sorted.
- I like the semi matte finish it gives in the waterline.
- Beautiful for doing soft smudgy smokey eyes – just glide this khol one your upper lash line , water line and lower lash line. Pick some black. brown eye show on a pencil brush and smudge it. Not only it would set for long but would give a beautiful soft black effect to your eyes.
- It sharpens pretty well without breaking.
- Never ever irritated my eyes.
- It comes off easily with an eye makeup remover.
- This contains parabens. Don’t like.
- Acc to the SA, it is safe for contact lens wearers as well.
The eye khol comes witha sharpener, which is of very good quality. It sharpens other eye pencils also pretty well.
There is a little compartment for cleaning stick at the bottom of the sharpener. 
Swatch :
On eyes: worn on waterline- 2 swipes
Comparison Swatches :
MAC Feline by far is the blackest black I have come across. Then is the Lakme Sheer Satin Kajal (may sting your eyes), The Urban Decay Liner in Zero and Chanel Eye Khol are more or less the same as far as blackness goes. Chanel’s texture is a little powdery while Urban Decay’s one is on the creamy side.
If you are looking for a soothing “pure” kajal , this may not be for you. If you are looking for a super duper intense black, this may not be for you.
If you are looking for a medium black kajal that stays long on waterline, this may be a good bet. I prefer to swipe the khol 3-4 times on my waterline to make it super intense. It is a great black kohl but even blacker kohls than this are available in the market.It goes more intense on the lash line than the waterline. I do like it a lot. It is a good quality basic eye kohl. Looks classy and feels luxurious. 🙂

This looks really good on your eyes !!! :thumbsup: I really loved your way of writing review !!!The sharpener looks better then kohl though ! :toothygrin: I have lakme kohl ultimate and I really love using that though I seriously doubt whether thats a kohl? ?:) 😐
hihih tapas that does not have an ingredient list too and some people did have the complaint of it stinging the eyes. Thanks. :))
Ohhhh really, sooo bad for those who had stinging issues after paying 650 for lakme kohl !I was soooo angry when i felt the stinging in my eyes after using deborah kajal !!!
that sucks. Totally hate it when these eye pencils sting on waterline. :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: You could have easily got a smolder with a few bucks more and it would have been so awesome. 🙂
i likey …. :waytogo: :waytogo: :waytogo: :waytogo:
but i stick to my lancome one only :smug: :smug: :smug: :smug:
I was about to tell you that. Lancome is more black than this one. Bt if you get bored of lancome, you check this out. 😀 😀
ohh…ohkk…. yaa …but me not get bored of it 😛 😛
i will show you next time okay. :-*
sachi.. :woot:
. aur bi sab dikhana meiko :victory2: :victory2: :victory2: :victory2: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
pakka… :puchhi:
:thanks: :thanks:
:teddy: :teddy: :teddy:
:puchhi: :puchhi: :puchhi:
It looks similar to MAC Smolder except that it comes with a sharpener too! Nice review 🙂
thanks ankita. 🙂
Hey Rati…this looks nice on your eyes.. :preen: and yes a nice way of putting up things No wonder you started this Blog.. :waytogo: 🙂 I have tried Kohl 2-3times .. it makes my eyes red and watery ..So I prefer mammas homemade kajal only.
those are the best kajals nidhi. this purely a makeup product. 🙂 thanks. 🙂
Hmmmmmmmmm….it now show up dark na on waterline 😐
it does.. It’s just that feline or probably lancome ones are more black than this. 😀
You know the Chanel SA in Blore…this is her every single day I have seen makeup…and it’s super super dark on her.
radhika umm.. how do i explain… see on its own it is quite black okay… bt there are pencils that are more black than this… does this make sense ?:) and if you apply more swipes of it it does get super black but if you apply just one swipe of feline it is super black in a swipe only. I mean It is a very good eye pencil bt there are darker options avaible as well.
Haan I undestroood…like she no apply on waterline…she do dark smudgey makeup…like dark dark liner…so it will look black only na
haan exactly. on waterline na the tears kinda soften the actual color. On lash line the smokey eye is like a dream. i goes soft super black on lash line. smudge it and you done. i did eye makeup with this pencil when i went to meet nufur…and we had loads of stuff na.. the same day i did :preen: :preen: :preen:
Hehehee no wonder u were dying to do black eyes and red lipppie …now I know :hunterwali:
hehhehe no i dint do red lippy. 😀 yesterday i went out I wore a red lippy and my pati is totally used to it now :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
Dont talk to me about your pati 😐 :smug:
awww!! he is so cute :teddy: :teddy: :tongue:
I updated the review a little. i think I sounded like I didn’t like it. I do like it . 🙂
yaaa we had loads :victory2: :victory2: :victory2: :victory2:
Its just medium types black naaa..ya the lancome one is definitely darker
And you knowww I tried to search for those OPI dupes of colorbar..but they are not here yet :(( :((
reteeka i guess they’d take time to reach other places. :(( as of now they are seeing through their store only.. :((
but is a nice soft black……sometimes you want that naa instead of that harsh black look…your eyes look so prettty :green: :green: eye looks pretty, rather
It looks very nice during the day. 😀 😀
hmmm me not very impressed…..expected more!! 😛
but i liked it on your eye!! 😀
thankoo cali. :hunterwali: :hunterwali: :hunterwali: :hunterwali:

hehehhehehheheheh !!! moms always come up with the cutest reasons.. 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆
It looks very nice! :thumbsup: But I can live without it! 😀
And I must say,I’m more interested in the sharpener than the kohl. :dumb: 😆
And the pics for this review are awesome! It gives off a very professional vibe! :woot: You’re getting better at photos by the day! :puchhi:
geee pencil ke saath hi toh you’d get a sharpener 😛 😛
thankoo :-* :-*
Mujhe paancil nahi chayie,Madam! I only want the sharpener. Mere paas waise bhi achha kajal hai,ab ke liye :whistle:
And You’re Welcome! 😀
1250 :pigtail: i’ll stick to my max factor 1, which is 340 n gives intense dark black and also stays on my eyes for 5-6 hours without smudging a bit 😀 this is very tempting though! Especially the cute sharpner :-* i’ll have 2 save 3/4th of my monthly pocket money to buy this :worship:
yeah the sharpener is quite nice. 😀 which maxfactor one do you use ? 🙂
awesome pictures !! …you photographed them well with that pencil shaving 🙂
9 out of 10 liners sting my eyes …i have stopped wearing anything on waterline as it endsup being a nuisance.This definetly looks like it will sting as you have mentioned in some comments here…too bad for me :smug:
nikita if you read the review again, i have mentioned that lakme eyeliner stings. not this.. never ever has it stung. 🙂
Thanks. :))
aila …yes …thanks for pointing out
i read it in this super fast mode which skipped manythings …now reading like this :specs: ..This looks gud for my waterlin as i dont have which stays for a long time and doesnt sting.However I should try this before purchasing as its little steep on price.nahi tho kisiko aise hi dena padega :scream:
oh yeah do try it before purchasing. :)) I hope it works for you. :))
May factor colour perfection eyeliner 🙂 it stays on my waterline totally intact atleast till 5 hrs :yay: btw, its looking awesome on you :puchhi:
thanks nissy. :-*
hmmm 1250 for a medium black liner.. i don’t know… but the sharpener is so awesome with that stick!!! heheheh 🙂
yeah 😀 😀 😀
ratidoooo waiting for you to review and swatch the MAC lippies.. me getting bonus this month so have to update my MAC lippy collection :secret2: :secret2: :secret2: :secret2: :secret2: :secret2:
:waytogo: :waytogo: m still yet to buy my first MAC lippie :smug: m always confused which one to go for..like so many of them :stars:
Oh wowiee!! I will start doing super soon suma. I know the textures and effects of a lot of mac lipsticks that I have bought so wouldnt take long to review these. Already trying stuff. I would ahve loads to say on lots of things. :jiggy1: :jiggy1: :jiggy1:
:yahoo: :yahoo: awaiting for those reviews now :waytogo:
O:) O:) O:)
Awesome review Rati..I prefer pitch black kohl so I dont think I would buy this..am happy with the MAC technakohl..Have u tried it?
oh i had the blue one./ it was awesome. technakohls are really fab liners. how are you doing? :))
Iam fine Rati..sent u a mail:)
I’ll check. 🙂
I just have MAC engraved black pencil. Which is not very intense like smolder. Thought of picking smolder next. Which one do you like more Smolder or this one ? which stays better on you ?
kaps i dnt have smolder. I waited long enough for feline because it was more intense than smolder. So cant compare really!! :((
okay 🙂
Sharpener is nice na 😀 m not super impressed by this one :smug: Mac one looks more good..as ofnow will stick to my oriflame intensity pencil..keeps all day on my waterline..sometimes more than 12 hours also :yahoo: :yahoo:
12 hours?? 😯 Bt parita most kohls dnt stay that long. :stars: :stars: :stars: :stars:
Its not completely a kohl na 😀 i use it as kohl..and its pretty safe..never stung my eyes even when I wear contacts 🙂 also may be my eyes are not that watery ?:)
i have that one parita :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: bt it gives raccoon eyes the nxt morning nah :stars: :stars: :stars:
hey jyo…I always use a Q-tip to remove it and it never gives me raccoon eyes now 😀 Do try removing it this way.. :waytogo:
ohh great. ‘ll try that now. :toothygrin: thankies 🙂
that’s awesome parita.. watever works beshtest :preen: :preen: :preen: :preen: :preen:
yup 😀 me tried simple neutral eye makeup today..looks quite dhinchak in office i think as the eyshadows are little on shimmery side..still trying hard to carry it off with confidence 😉
All thanks to you for inspiring us beginners :thanks:
awww!! that’s nice parita. I like when women get dressed up for office. I go to office and when i come downstairs for chai or something , i start feeling over dressed and made up. I wonder why a lot of women dnt get dressed up nicely for office. 🙁 Bt in my office me and navpreet are mostly dressed up and have done our bit of makeup. It’s nice. :)) and yo! do carry it with confidence. :-*
Thank you Rati..m still learning some subtle ways of doing eye makeups without looking like a clown especially this happens a lot with warm skinned gals like me..its very easy to go over board..you remember few weeks back i used to ask you regarding your eye makeup? i loved them..they were so subtle and looked fab..i didnt even feel they look weird at all..but if i do try the same on me..i’ll look weird or probably i feel i am not used to seeing myself so made up 😀
None of the gals in my team dress up…hardly u’ll see a kajal or a liner also :nababana:
LOL..I am definitely gonna try to do so 🙂
:thanks: for your encouragement :puchhi:
I think it’s the right colors that you have to select may be. :))
Nah nah rati…she just needs to visit symbi in lavale once in a while!!! :toothygrin: :toothygrin: most of the engg crowd ki bandiyan don’t believe in dressing up on a regular basis, so if u r with them, u stand out :methinks: :methinks:
Btw ur eyes are looking abs awesome 🙂
looks really nice on ur eyes bt me eyeing MAC one :woot: :woot: :woot:
yeah n the sharpener is toh so cute :teddy: :teddy: :teddy: :teddy:
It really looks nice…the colour looks non-smudgey and smooth!
thanks shai. After a while it smudges a bit but not like the mad racoon types smudging. Thank you. 🙂
looks so good…..Hey I love ur Display pic 🙂
hihih that’s monika. It’s from that spice lip pencil review. :dumb:
Haaan! Now I remember! :dumb: :dumb: I will also go and take some pics of myself now. :preen:
you toh were giving those duck face links that day :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: :smug:
Rati, FAB review and AWESOME photos!!!!!!!!!
Ok, how is this when compared to the technakohl? Which would u prefer personally…?
Technakohl was gifted to me n I like it. Now I wanna decide which to buy…
ramya actually i like both. If I really really have to pick one it would be chanel. Reason: I like pencils that can be sharpened. :))
thanks. 🙂
Ohhh thanks u summed it up nicely 🙂 I’m LOVING ur creative pics these days..
I stare at them so long.. Longer than I take to read to read the review 😀
hehheheh I hope i continue doing the good work for long. :thanks: :thanks:

😐 😐 😐 😐 wel done :dumb: :dumb:
beautiful photograph and great review as always 🙂
thanks praseena. 🙂
Getting too tempted with the products but it makes me so SAD :waaa:
as none of these brands are available in Gujarat. Wish could buy them! Especially this LANCOME kajal or MAC feline :smug:
aww!! Feline is a limited edition anita. it comes inly once in a while in MAC collection. 🙁
guess you must make a trip to delhi some time. 🙂
good review rati . your pics are lovely. what cam ya use ?
anita thanks. https://makeupandbeauty.com/finally-camera/
Chanel makes some amazing liners and they are quite performing…what bothers me is that they still use parabens in their products ( i know they might not in the future do that)………….I liked the way they glide and they are not the most expensive ones in the market with Guerlain on its way (overtly priced and horribly underperfoming)…MAC feline is such a good one instead!
oh is guerlin coming to India… didnt know that. 🙂 Never tried anything from guerlin though saw their lovely counters during my travels. Oh yeah the liner is really nice bt parabens really scare me actually. I mena chanel can totally do without them. I agree about the price. mac eye kohls are around 800-900 and a few more bucks you can totally pick up a luxury brand and pamper yourself. 😀
Guerlain retails in Mumbai with hardly any plans to go out coz they r not doing that well! U can get their meteorites though!
looks nice on eyes.. :yes:
looks gud.. Tho m eyeing the sharpener! :toothygrin:
but me thines i Wil get mac feline for myself next :waytogo:
i have to buy a new kohl…thinking btw lancome and chanel..plz recommend..
im not concered how it looks..more on how it feels ..as my eyes are really sensitive
so plz pour in ur valuable inputs
