Price: Rs 1075
What I love about Lancome Le Crayon Khol Eye Liners
- They are super soft. They glide on your eyes without any tugging or pulling.
- I can wear them on my waterline and they have never irritated my eyes.
- On my waterline , these pencils say on for good 5 hours but on my upper lash line or lower lashline they stay on until I remove them.
- I have two shades with me – 02 Brun and 013 Silver : I would say that Brun stays longer than the Silver. Maybe because the pigment of Brun is stronger than the Silver.
- Both the shades are super duper pigmented and you could create dramatic looks with these.
- You can create soft smokey looks with these or just apply them neatly, these stay.For people with oily lids I would definitely recommend prepping and priming their lids before applying these eye pencils or these would smudge.
- I have never had raccoon eyes even after I have worn the dark brown shades deep and dark.These stay pretty well on my eyes.
- The pencils are looongg so they would last you for good many months.
- These could be sharpened and I like that. 😛
- These don’t break while sharpening.
- The ends of the pencils are coloured so they are easier to locate.
- These come of easily with an eye makeup remover.
What I don’t like about Lancome Le Caryon Khols?
- These are not waterproof but the waterproof versions of the same pencils is available at Lancome.
- These didn’t sharpen too well for me. So you see the crookedness towards the tip of the pencils? The good thing is that the pencils don’t break while sharpening but I don’t like the crooked old feeling of after I sharpen them. 🙁 I am also not sure if it’s with my pencils only . DO let me know if you have used these.

Have you use Lancome Le Crayon Khols?

Lovely pencils and they stay put for 5 hrs on waterline!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW wanted to ask you can that Inglot pencil be used on waterline ?
No I don’t think so , HD. Only pencils that say Khol can be applied on waterline. Does that one say??
Yeah Lancome pencils have stayed the longest on my eyes among all the kajals or kohl pencils that I have. 🙂
nope..it just says soft precision eyeliner n this staying power is tempting me to get Lancome
The best thing is that they don’t smear or smudge all over your eyes even though they are such soft pencils. Actually HD these would stay differently on different people. If you have very watery eyes, these would wear of pretty soon, if you have okayish watery eyes, the staying power is pretty good, much better than regular kajals and MAC eye khol.
Brun looks lovely on your eyes…and i liked the black gold swatch too..i have very watery eyes 😥 so far i hav not found any kohl which stays on for more than 3 hours in my water line…Rati, any recos??
Nothing Shyna, if you have watery eyes, it’s just best to set your kajals with eye shadows so that they don’t smudge and give you racoon eyes. The tears in your eyes would always bereak the pencil formula and the kajal would fade.
Layering is another thing that should be done to make your makeup stay longer but generally people go overboard with it. Like if you apply 1-2 swipes of kajal, make it 2-3 swipes but then you would have to set your lower lashline pretty well with the eyeshadow or the kajal would be all around your eyes.
If you want your makeup to stay all day long you need to have layers of makeup on your face :
moisturiser + Primer + liquid foundation + cream blush + powder + powder blush + fix it spray.
same goes with eyes or lips . It’s actually not possible to do on day to day basis.
It’s always best that you do less, look fresh and “believe” in touch ups. 🙂
Oh no cant even think of layering my face/eyes like that daily…
so always carry a pouch with your makeup essentials and do touch ups whenever and wherever you can. 🙂
yes, ur rite…I think I will try and check it out and see how long it stays on my eyes and then think of buying
oh the Inglot pencil , don’t wear it on your waterline in that case.
@ rati: i luvedddd the bronze , silver & platinum onez :inlove:
@HD: recently saw the post of IMBB gals meetin up and must say u r a pretty lady..
Bronze is one of my fav as well. 😛 Can’t have enough khaki in my collection. 😛
dis fascination of buying makeup seems to be never ending …..i think even we have tons of products/colors we cant resist ourselves :drool: :drool: :drool:
Totally agree on that. Obsessed. :rotfl:
awww….thank you Nimisha :-)) Good to see you here!!
rati…i too have watery eyes….should i buy this???? and i’m still waiting for the video of how to set your kajal with shadow!!!!!!!!!!
.-= gunmeen´s last blog ..APRIL FOOL BANAYA!!!!! =-.
Gunmeen, actually I recently got a new laptop and I am still trying to figure out how to do videos. 🙁 Okay next week pakka wala promise , you’ll have your video. 🙂
Okay khols and kajals are something of your personal preference. These would smudge so you need to set them and if you have watery yes these would also fade. But someone like me, I would always buy kohls pencils over the regular eye pencils because they are softer and I can smudge them.
“actually I recently got a new laptop” Hmmppph some people..just waiting for a chance to :announce: :announce: :announce: I got a new laptop :announce: :announce: :announce: :announce: I got a new laptop :smug: :smug: :smug: :smug:

Love the Brun color.. I always wanted a nice brown colored Kohl. Like chestnut too :-))
Brun is actually a true chocolate brown colour. 🙂
I got this pencil free with my Lancome purchase and I love it.. I’m not able to remember the name and it’s not in the swatch as well.. I’ll chk out the shade and let you know.. N u look fab in both the shades
The shades in different countries are different in different countries. I also liked these pencils a lot. 🙂

:smug: :smug:
:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
Rati..in the swatches..whats the first greenish line? You started with Brun..which I assumed is the second one.. ?:-) ?:-) I think that sharpening problem happens with most wooden pencils 🙁
Ohhh..its bronze..sorry got it 😀
errrr….. No I have not faced such a problem with other pencils. Only these. 🙁 where had you been since morning?
Got up verrrrry early…hehehehee…10..is kind of cold here…nice weather for adrak chai..my maid happily made it..I happily drank…then chit chat. Had a busy busy day so far 😀
busy drinking chai n chit chatting???
Absolutely accurate… :giggle: :giggle: :giggle:
Now I am :alien: :alien: :alien:
Oh I dont know…I don’t have any with wooden casing..should search my Avon one…but the sharpened area looks like a really lazy person used a really blunt sharpening tool 😀 😀 😀 😀
Excuse me…. every other pencil sharpens pretty well and I tried sharpening them with diffrent sharpeners but still the same. 🙁
And you are so bloody refreshed after all that chai and chit chatting, my brain has stopped working now. :-((
Yup..me wide awake..I think I slept for about 9 hours 😀 😀 And the chai was good too 😀 😀 😀 😀 I didnt mean you are lazy, you know…was just saying that’s how it looks :evilgrin: :evilgrin:
.-= Radhika´s last blog ..Shiseido Pureness Mattifying Moisturizer =-.
And I haven;t had a single cup of tea since morning. :teeth:
Why such a lazy day btw? 😛
The luxuries of a lazy person working from home…..sighhh…should start working now 😀
I think I should keep my name Miss J for the day. :silly:
Hehehheee…hubby says if I get zero salary also I would be overpaid…cannot understand where all this negativity stems from…hmmmm :idk:
:rotfl: You see people who nag so much generally attract negativity from here and there. :giggle:
Looks like brain has started working now. 😀
the tips of these pencils make me shudder! too bad they don’t sharpen well!
You know, Rima I am not sure if this is happening with my pencils only or in general thse pencils sharpen like this only. I will check it out at the store as well.
do update when you find out about that
.-= Rima Kaur´s last blog ..Beneath The Smiles =-.
I will do that for sure. 🙂
I’ll sharpen my pencil and let you know 🙂
Dear God,
I will be very very good this whole year..and don’t mind if Santa misses out on my Christmas gifts either..well not all, but some. Please let Priya’s pencil look so pretty when she sharpens it.
Me :weep:
😛

Radhika.. Your prayers have been answered.. The pencil looked “pretty” after I sharpened it..
Rati, I have shade 21 Plum.. If possible, chk it out.. It’s a gorgeous shade 🙂

Actually I’m feeling J.. Even I wanna work at Radhika’s firm so that I can laze arnd at home
And have some tea. I WANTTTT TEA now. :yawn:
Heyyy I work and work and work…a lot..err….every day…err…all through the day… 😐 😐
Why does everybody call me lazy ?:-) ?:-) ?:-) ?:-) ?:-) ?:-) And some even go so far as to qualify me as a pampered brat…cannot understand :idk: :idk:
yeah yeah…someone wakes up at 10 am , haves chai-paani , chit chats , lazes around and then at 4 wants tea again. Should we call you a blue collared worker ?? :devil:
Rati.. Do you not understand how much work that is!!! :evilgrin:
Guess I must worship Rads for doing it. :worship: :worship:
Hmmm…sarcasm…puts more banana puree into the drums.
:giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :umbrella:
Is your hair so damaged ?:-)
huh?? If she is throwing banana puree mixed with castor oil I’d better run away from here.Forget using an umbrella. 😛
I have to make the evening chai myself :-((
Right! 🙄 Should I send a maid from Delhi?
Rati…common…………..dont u understand how much busy n tiring u can get if u hv to get up sooooo early at 10 and then drink the chai urself which the maid has made…n ya chit chat tooo….with your own mouth!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think she is taking a tea break now and when she comes back both of us would be dead. 😐 😐
Wayyy too much sarcasm, it never is good. Finish up your boring works and head back home..you all have to sit through endless traffic jams and rains, don’t you, to reach home? Just asking : :evilgrin: :evilgrin: Hmmm…sips :coffee: oho..I forgot to put adrak..never mind :coffee: :coffee:
BTW…lemme tell Rads I too can work frm home whn I wish too…so this thing def does not make me :alien: :alien:
Err..I can go to office when I wish to – which is almost never 😀 And am sending some of the toxic banana puree to you too, saw your “with your own mouth” comment…am thinking I will cook the concoction a bit so it gets a lil more yucky looking :devil: :devil:
dont think you will cook it urself Rads………….ha ha….u’ll get it done frm ur maid and she will run away if u get hr to make something like this!!!!!!!!! 😀 😀
That is true 😐 😐 Ok uncooked versions then 😀
:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
And I will send it by the slowest courier service I can find..so its rich in flora and fauna when it reaches you all :dance: :dance: :devil: :devil:
And we have the fastest courier service that will bring your courier back to you if we don’t receive it. *ta ra la la la la*
Ewwww….locks house…courier the parcels and run awayyyy…disappear… :airplane:
That’s a bang on, HD. :rotfl: :rotfl:
Why not, Rads? So you are leaving hubby behind to receive the return gift?
I am thinking we will end up killing a lot of courier people..toxic fumes.. 😀 Yippeee..great idea…there is this horrible courier company near my house..doesn’t do any work properly..we’ll use them 😀
:teeth:
You want some masala in your chai? :bomb:
😀 😀 😀 😀
Oh I was asking seriously…we don’t have anything like that…was wondering ?:-)
Oh!! i was actually laughing at Rashmi’s comment. loll!!
I lot of people change their names after marriage, for some it’s a personal thing and for some it’s optional.
I had an option not to change my surname as well. But after marriage I did add sanjeev’s surname to my name. So now it’s “my name +maiden’s name + sanjeev’s surname.” 😛
Hmm..new to me 🙂
you don’t have to change your name at all?
Actually the funda is that girl takes a new birth after marriage so new name as well. it’s weird because that ways it’s a new birth for a boy also.
I dunno, that’s what they say..
Changing name after marriage is in ur tradition too? I tght its only for maharashtrians….
Changing name is not a tradition. Some people just believe in the custom.
Thankfully they don’t follow anything like this on my hubby’s side. It would have been very difficult for me. 🙁
hi rati! new to the site! find every rreview very helpful! keep up the good work! and love the blue shade of pencil!
Blue shade????
I think she meant Indigo Paris.
Hi radhika,
Welcome to IMBB. 🙂
we have too many radhikas now! :rotfl:
.-= Rima Kaur´s last blog ..Beneath The Smiles =-.
I think she is the third one. Two write their name with small “r” and one is our pink avatared one. Oh!! The pink one also has a winged eyebrow. :rotfl:
Ahem!!
No, I haven’t changed my name…not my first name, not my surname. Girls – new birth – ya I kind of figured that was the funda 😐
Yeah but that doesn’t happen with boys. 😐
Don’t get me started on the topic…I could go on and on!
:quiet: :quiet:
Bronze and Silver are beautiful Rati 🙂
Like the brun on you. Btw, I had a very bad exp with Colorbar Truffle. It tugs on ma lids like nobodys biz and the tip is constantly breaking..Sadly its going to the bin 🙁
Hey btw, there are lots a lovely movie apps in MAC..Did ya try Photobooth for clicks? works well..And welcome to the MAC gang..you will thoroughly enjoy the experience.
You know Poornima, a lot of stuff that colorbar is selling these days is old. Something is with their dates also. 🙁 It’s been long I have purchased anything from colorbar and I used be such a big fan of colorbar products. Also I have a feeling that they are going to continue with their i glide pencils and disc the define ones so they are just selling out the leftover.
SO sorry for such an experience. 🙁
I played with imovie yesterday (that too on a reader’s request :P) , had to bang my head in it but liked it a lot. 🙂 I’ll take tips from you whenever I need some help. One of my friend has macbook pro, I keep calling her up he he loll!!
Even i have a recent bad experience with colorbar-since we dont get their pdts here i ordered thru their website -3 weeks back..not received the courier till now though my credit card is charged with the amount on the date of order..Rati any solution?tried sending a mail to the id which they have given in their site but bounced back. :-((
Shyna, I know someone from colorbar. will try to get in touch with the person but can’t promise anything. 🙁
Sigh..dunno what to say..The concealer is by far the only thing im satisfied with.
Do PM me any time for help on MAC..Will help u in whatever way I can..Looking forward to an upgrade to Pro soon.
oh wowie. 🙂 AM still learning MAC like a school kid .he he
Would you believe that they disc the concealer because they thought it wasn’t that good. I think it was one among their better products. Wonder who is giving them the feedback.
Oooh, loved Bronze, Brun and Chestnut!!! beautiful shades…..and such amazing staying power…. these would have to go on my list too… :-))
Brun looks lovely on you, Rati…
Thank you, ST. 🙂
These are gorgeous colors. my fav has to be Black Gold ,& 031 Indigo Paris
