Review & swatches : L'oreal Paris Superliner 24 Hour Waterproof Gel Liner – 01 Black
By Kiran


L ‘oreal says: A long-lasting waterproof eyeliner with an intense and bold colour result. The high-precision brush makes application easy and creates a perfectly smooth line. An ultra-quick drying effect creates a smudge-free, dramatic look that lasts up to 24 hours.


24 hour waterproof Gel Liner, does it actually last that longer??? This was the first question that came to my mind when I first saw this Gel Liner. But then 2nd question was do I really need a liner put on for 24 hour….Nay. But then yes I must admit it does stay on for the entire day without any smudging and any touch ups. So yes it definitely lives up to the name.

You know I wanted to get a nice Gel liner, matte and dark, I mean very dark black. It comes in a very attractive packaging. You get a brush with the tiny small jar filled with liner. You get 2.8 grams of product for a good 750 bucks. Though it may be a bit difficult for newbies to apply liner with this brush, practice will help you get you create a perfectly smooth line. I took a little time for me to get my hand perfect with this also. So don’t get disheartened or think this is not meant for you.



This is actually a good product and fulfills all the promises it makes. It is a dark black shade. It may not look that dark black in the pictures but it is much darker than what you can see in the pictures. It does not wash out with water and you have to invest on a makeup remover or you can also use coconut oil to remove it.

I have often heard of people complaining about gel liner that they gets dry very soon. I have this for more than 8 months and did not see any change in the formulation. It is still smooth and pigmented.

I find it perfect for my eyes because I have sensitive eyes and I cannot apply all the products to the water line. Sometimes I have to use a kohl pencil on the water line and a liner on the outer corners. However with this product life has become easier for me and I don’t have to invest in 2 products. This product claims that it is dermatologically tested, safe for eyes and safe for contact lens. I don’t use contact lens so cannot tell you how it feels when applied after wearing lenses. But then yes it definitely does not give any irritation to sensitive eyes even if wore for the entire day.

I feel it is a great product for daily as well as occasional use. You can draw thin as well as thick lines with it and It will help you get that simple Indian or dramatic look for your eyes.

Price: Rs 750 for 2.8 g
Final Verdict: 4.5
