L’oreal HiP Cream Eyeliner in Teal Review
Hi All,
If any of you recall, I’d had done a review on the Brown liner from this same HiP range earlier. Now I’m back with reviewing the Teal shade from this range. I got this as part of my Diwali haul and its was a friend of mine who managed to get it for me from the US.
I have just 1 word for this liner…. FANTABULOUS! I have been ogling this liner for so long now that I used it the same evening I got it from my friend. I simply couldn’t control myself…i felt like a kid who got her first Barbie!
What L’oreal Product Claims
Discover the secret to creamy, long-wearing definition with HiP Studio Secrets Professional Color Truth Cream Eyeliner. this Rich Versatile liner comes in 5 pigment packed shades to define and eye look. Includes professional brush for precise application.
- Â Shades:Â Black, Brown, Teal, Midnight Blue & Eggplant
- Â Quantity:4.5 gms
- Price:$12Â but the price may vary at different stores.
My experience with L’oreal HiP Cream Liner in TEAL:
- Packaging:Â The liner comes in a pot form within a cardboard type of packaging. The tub is a hard glass one with a plastic screw top lid which has the shade name and number mentioned on the top. Even though the pot is of hard plastic, it does stand a chance of chipping or cracking on contact with titled floors. It comes with a slanted brush which is functional but I found it to be very abrasive after the first wash. Its because of this that I can’t dare use it on my waterline for fear of inadvertently brawling like a baby. So I use my BE bent eye brush to apply this.
- Â Pigmentation:Â After using the brown shade I had very high expectation sout of this one too and it doesn’t disappoint on any account. The shade is so intensely pigmented as visible in the swatch as well. A single swipe is all it takes and I’m done. No need to dip into the pot multiple times. I had been hunting for a good teal shade and I’m extremely pleased that I got this at the right time after pining away for it for 4-5 months continuously. 🙂
- Staying Power:I think this liner never fades at all…I’ve worn it for 10hrs at a stretch and it still looked the same as when I’d applied it. No smudging or flaking at all. Impressive isnt it?
- Texture:This cream liner is very soft and velvety. It does seem a bit on the thicker and heavier side in the pot but is extremely light on the lids. Infact this is such a soft and dense shade that I’m sure it would gr8 as a base as well.
- Fragrance:I couldn’t detect any fragrance at all.
What I like about L’oreal HiP Cream Liner in TEAL:
- Pigmentation is to die for.
- Its the perfect Teal shade.
- Seems to be fragrance free
- Its quite inexpensive if bought abroad. There are stores which sell this as part of a ‘Buy 1, Get 1 free’ offer.
- Staying power was very impressive and no touch up required.
- Safe to use on the waterline as well
- The quantity of product is sooooo much..I wonder if it’ll ever get over.
What I did not like about L’oreal HiP Cream Liner in TEAL:
- Not available here in India
- Pretty pricey. I would suggest one to pick these up when on offer only.
- Brush is abrasive to the skin. They should have either given a decent brush or not given one at all!
Ratings:
- Pigmentation:Â 5/5
- Staying Power:Â 5/5
- Packaging:Â 5/5
- Availability:Â 3.5/5
- Price vs. Quality:Â 5/5

yeps…it does doesnt it :)) :)) :clap-n-jump:
Lovely shade and perfect application Zee…. Wonder why these never made it to our country though..Would have loved to see the eggplant one.
The brush looks uber cute…but could have been of the maybelline quality no?
thanx poorni..these r so worth it…if they launch this in india they will get such a huge market of buyers…they hav no idea…we wud lap these up like ice cream!
i wish the brush was of maybelline quality atleast..this brush is soft only on the first use…after washing it once it becomes so hard…when i try using it it brngs tears to my eyes…
Wow…I love the shade Zara…It is very pretty..
its very gorgeous…this is the kinda shade which will suit everybody and will perk up ur look instantly..
Wow.. No smudging at all 😀 😀 :clap-n-jump: :clap-n-jump: It would be nice if it is available here in india 🙂 Nice review ana sis 🙂

Behnaaaa….super shade….and loved the way you did a winged one…how does it look over all? i mean not OTT? do you wear it in the day or night?
hey Mits, glad u liked this..this shade can be worn anytime day or night…its not too dark or too bright also…so no chances or looking jhataak…turquoise wala shade wud have looked ott for sure coz of how bright it is but teal can never do that…so kabhi bhi pehno aur khush ho jao!! 😉

if uv never used a gel liner then u can start with maybelline wala which is good to start with…then u can move to inglot or MAC as u feel comfy..lekin do try the maybelline ..its a cult fav amongst those whov just discovered it..
he he..i know…so many ppl going gaga over it. ‘ll pick it up 2moro itself before its too late :-)) Thanx for suggesting 😀
ur welcome jyo…do let me kno how u like it? infact, switty has used it in her luks N number of times..even as a bas I gues…so its sorta multi purpose 🙂
yeah i know. ‘ll pick it up pakka se n let u know 😀
Hey Zee…………….. was waiting for this review…Yayyyy… love the color! Very very very pretty!! I think this is a lil more denser than the Inglot wala… hai na Ana??
You are such a pro at applying liner Zee :clap-n-jump: :clap-n-jump: I am yet to learn the winger liner look 🙁 🙁
hey Mals!! how u doin?? how was the weekend?
the color is so amazing na? i dont think its denser than inglot…inglot wala is sooooooooo creamy like u wudnt believe..but this one is a bit darker i felt..i swatched both and inglot one was thoda lighter than this…but intensity-wise both r fab 🙂
to apply it properly practic eis the only thing re…nothing else..i anyways apply liner daily…so the straight lines come automatically 🙂
yaa i compared both its more dense than inglot one so it will go on most of the outfits 🙂
how was weekend Mals ??
seem like a co0l stuff to buy! 5/5 for most of the criteria! =)
definitely…ive never come across a shade which works so well on so many counts…i was also so impressed…dint even kno wot cns to put in! 😉
oh my my!!! its such a gorgeous shade!!!! wish it was available in india too 🙁
