It would seem that I have an addiction to retractable products. Maybe that is true, but you got to admit that they capture one’s attention and are definitely easy to use. They are perfect for girls who are constantly on the move, and the L’oreal Infallible Eyeliner is no exception.

Since Amy Whinehouse brought the dramatic cat eye-liner back into fashion many different forms of eye-lining has emerged. L’oreal provided the perfect product to experiment and train in the art of eye-lining.

Unlike many traditional eye pencils this eye-liner is very delicate and easy on the skin. I have found that eye pencils are too rough and leave my skin red and irritated. You had to press really hard in order to get the product on your skin – not ideal for the soft delicate eye area, especially if you need to practice the sexy-cat-eye trick. The creamy texture of the product glides on easily, so you don’t have to apply the product a thousand times to get any effect.

Another added bonus is the fact that the product can easily be washed away. No more raccoon eyes! But, do not make the mistake of assuming that the product doesn't last very long. It is not called Infallible for nothing. I wear my Infallible eye-liner on top of my eye lid and inside of my waterline and in both cases the product lasts for hours.

Unfortunately, the colors aren't very intense. I personally prefer to use liquid liner for a dramatic cat eye-liner, but the L’oreal Infallible Eyeliners are also perfect for creating the sultry smokey-eyes, because the product can easily be smudged. I primarily use the product to create a soft, romantic and elegant cat’s eye. It is perfect for work or a date.

I love the tiny built-in sharpener and the smudge stick. They enable you to either create precise lines or smudged color for an elegant or grunge look.

The product is available at Clicks or other selected pharmacies for R119.99 - it is a relatively inexpensive eye-liner.
