L’Oreal Super Liner Gelmatic Pen – Deep Brown Review

Hi Beauties,

L’Oreal has come up with a beautiful array of make-up collection for the upcoming Cannes Festival. The L’or Lumiere collection has a wide collection of Moist Matte Lipsticks, Color Riche Nail Colors, Infallible Mono Eye Shadows and Super Liner Gel Matic Eyeliners.  From India, we will have Aishwarya Rai, Sonam Kapoor, and Freida Pinto adorning these products on the red carpet at Cannes this year. These were released way back in December 2013 internationally, but I saw them displayed at my local L’Oréal store only recently, and I immediately picked up my most favoured makeup item of all – an eyeliner.  I played safe and picked up a brown shade, but these eyeliners are available in 6 different stunning colors – Ultra Black, Deep Brown, Silver Mania, Glamor Gold, Turbo Turquoise and Blue Force.

Innovative gel glide polymers and intense micro gel pigments create an intense colour pay-off that is smudge proof, gliding on for 12 hour wear. L’Oréal Paris introduces its first gel eye liner in a pen format.

My Experience with L’Oreal Super Liner Gelmatic Pen – Deep Brown:

I picked up the color – Deep Brown, though I wanted to pick them all up. The colors on the counter looked so stunning; I almost stood still for nearly a minute. The eyeliner comes in a plastic body, and it is retractable – yay! No wastage of product. The shades are marked at the end of the pen. The pen has a cap, which closes with a click, so safe during travel. The color “Deep Brown” is metallic, though it does not have any obvious shimmer.  It applies smoothly and is not at all gritty. It does not irritate my eyes at all.It does last on my upper eyelids for a long time (I have checked upto 10 hours), as they claim, without any loss of intensity. However, on my lower waterline, it lasts barely 3-4 hours. It is indeed smudge proof, and waterproof, and thankfully, does not give me panda eyes on fading off.

My main problem is the pigmentation. These are not very richly pigmented. To look at least decent on my eyelids, I had to swipe them 4-5 times. It is non-gritty, so no problem in swiping it on my lower waterline, but it is not very soft also. It does resemble gel liners on application, but the pigmentation could have been better.

Would I Repurchase L’Oreal Super Liner Gelmatic Pen – Deep Brown?

Yes, but in other colors.

Overall, this eyeliner gets thumbs up from me. I think this is the first form of Gel eyeliners in pen form, which is indeed a boon for the newbies and for those with shaky hands. The pigmentation could have been better, and the liner could have been softer. It does apply beautifully on the lids and will look stunning with day and evening wear.

  1. Great review!! *clap* *clap* Have you used Maybelline or any other gel liner? Does it give nearly the same results apart from the pigmentation?

    1. Hi, thanks for liking the review… Personally I prefer the newer version of maybelline everlasting intense gel liner. It comes in a pot, and does not dry in pot easily. It is very creamy and smooth to apply with a brush. Its intensely black but non metallic and dries fast. This pen type is a bit harder with less pigmentation. Both are smudgeproof and last long ( though maybelline claims 36 hrs). But if u are a newbie and not confident with a brush, this is an easy way to go. Good luck

  2. wooow gel liner in a pen form *happy dance* *happy dance* would be soo great during those busy days when you cant use a brush n all to apply *woot* *woot* *woot* nice metallic shade *happy dance* *happy dance*
