L'Oreal Colour Riche Le Crayon de Colouer in Lovel

Colour Riche is such an amazing range from L'Oreal Paris. I adore the lipsticks. This was the first time I had ever tried an eye crayion. Firstly the colour is glorious, pretty and bright. It may not be for everyone but it is so pretty it may be worth a try. It is a great chunky sized crayon which will last you an age so that means absolute value for money. This creamy crayon will go on smoothly and easily however you can also use an eye shadow brush to apply as well. I found it lasted the day, it didnt move or crease when I use as a full eye shadow. I also used it as an eyeliner with good results as well. I found it came off with my eye make up remover easily. It will sharpen in a large make up pencil sharpener. I enjoyed this crayon so much I did purchase another colour.

Tips: Warming the crayon before use will perhaps make application easier.

Lovely Lilas... j'adore!

My lovely friend knows how much I adore makeup, and purple, and so hunted this out for me for my birthday.

Instant love affair. The pencil is thick but can be sharpened to a finer point, or (as it is gloriously creamy) you can transfer it to an eyeliner brush for a thinner line. Used as is you get an even, decent line of colour, that really pops.

This is a bright pastel lilac, which I like to team with pink and teal for a really summery, pretty eye look. The pigmentation is incredible, with colour popping at you from every angle.

I have dark hair and when I have a wee (fake) tan on this looks especially cool. it suits my hazel eyes perfectly - hazel loves purple after all!

The longevity is impressive - I often find that it is just as bright when I get home, after a long day. It's also great as an instant makeup lift in a hurry as it brightens your look instantly.

I'm not sure which I love more - this colour/product, or the friend who bought it for me :p

Tips: Try it in colour combos as mentioned above - amazing results!

Nice easy liner

At first I wasn't sure how I felt about the colour as I don't usually wear such bright colours on my eyes but I think this may have changed my mind a bit. It's super easy to use as it's in a stick form and creamy so it doesn't drag along the skin. It also doesn't take much to get a lot of colour on either which is good for those of you who like their colour bright and bold! What I ended up doing was putting on a thick line of this on my upper lid and then putting my usual mac eyeliner over it so it covered it a little (enough to still see the lavender). It didn't seem to budge or transfer at all which makes me like more. I will defiantly be using this again but I don't have a big sharpener so now I will need to get one. (Perhaps they could include one with the pencil?)

Easy to apply and stays put

I had a positive first impression of this product, it brought back a bit of nostalgia of drawing with crayons as a child. Fortunately it appears my skills with crayons have improved in the last 25 years or so, the colour was easy to apply and the format of the crayon meant I could apply it directly where I wanted it. I also liked how it was easy to gradually build up colour to the intensity I wanted. I liked the result of teaming this lilac with a grey hue base.

The creamy texture applied easily and I found the colour wore well and did not smudge. I also liked that the crayon cap fit on the other end of the pencil, meaning I am unlikely to loose it.

Tips: Use the tip of the crayon to apply create a colourful eye liner. This lilac shade is great to highlight a grey smokey eye.

L'Oreal Colour Riche Le Crayon de Couleur in Lovel

I was sent this product in a trial and after having already tried a few other brands, this product worked better than I had expected.

I found that the product was very creamy upon swatching it on the back of my hand and it had good pigmentation. I was a little weary of wearing purple on my eyes so I started by using it to add a pop of colour on my lower lash line. The colour was gorgeous and it lasted a good 6 hours before the colour started to wear off. It was easy to apply in the form of a crayon, because the tip was a little thick however it was very easy to hold.

When I used it on my eyelids to create a smokey eye, I found it was hard to apply at first but the application and blending became easier after warming the tip on the back of my hand. When used with primer, the colour really stands out. Removal is also very easy - I used Bioderma micellular water and it came right off.

All in all, application of the product is very easy. It is also very versatile and travel friendly. The packaging is also very sleek. I would definitely recommend this.

Tips: Warming up the product before application makes it easier to apply and blend :)

Shadow Crayon

I was excited to try this product out as I don't normally incorporate lighter colours in my eye looks. When I swatched the colour on my hand it showed a beautiful, slightly metallic lilac purple. The swatch came out very pigmented with opaque coverage. When i applied to my lids, I found it slightly harder to get that same opacity, but gradually built it up in layers. As it is more of a creme consistency, it's a bit difficult to blend out, but nothing a bit of perseverance can't work out. As it is quite a chubby pencil, I didn't opt to use it as an upper lash liner as i couldn't get my line thin/crisp enough - but this could perhaps be remedied by applying the product to a brush and applying that way.

I ended up liking this product the best when used as a base for purple shadows. It has great staying power, when used with or without a primer, and allows the shadows to adhere quite well. The product also makes a great inner corner highlight for a bright, colourful eye makeup look.

Colour Riche crayon.

I was excited to try this product, I've wanted to find some ways to bring brighter colours into my eye make up for a while, so I was keen to try this. straight off i loved the vibrant colour, the pigment impressed me. I've used traditional eye shadow for a long time now, and was keen to see how a crayon would work within my makeup routine. I was disappointed that getting it to blend was quite hard, because of the texture of the crayon, however after a bit of effort I got it to look good/I was happy with it. the crayon made it really easy to use on my lower lids and it would be a fantastic liner. I'll use this product again, but I don't think I would re-buy it, simply because of the way I like to wear my eye make up, means traditional eyeshadows more favourable.

Tips: use this for vibrant lines that stand out, needs a bit of effort to blend it.

L'Oreal Colour Riche Le Crayon de Couleur in Lovel

When swatched on the hand, the pigmentation of this is beautiful. It has a creamy texture as promised.

However, when applied on my eyelids, I found it extremely hard to apply and even dragged my skin!

On my eyelids (no primer, no shadow under or on top), I found that the colour payoff was not as pigmented as when swatched on my hand. Maybe it due to the fact that I applied more pressure on my hand? Because it did drag o my eyelid space, I did not apply as much pressure.

The next day I primed my lids and found that the colour payoff was the same. Same thing happened when applied on top of shadows.

On the 4th day, I tried it again by warming it up sightly between my hands. Sure enough the pigmentation was amazing!

As an eyeliner, I found that since it is quite chubby, it did not apply easily when I want the line to be lose to the lashes.

When used alone on the first day, I did no experience any creasing. Same goes for all the other days I had used this. But people with oily lids may have problems.

Although this product worked best and provided maximum pigmentation for me when warmed up, it does not mean that the colour payoff was horrible. Prior to it being used warmed up, the colour was a lovely light lavender which would be great for days when I want a light look!

Overall, I would love to use this product again in other colours!

Tips: Defiantly warm this product up with hands prior to using to achieve maximum pigmentation.

Cool if you're after something a bit different

I have to say, I was weary of using purple eye shadow (flashbacks to high school), but keen to give it a go. The crayon makes it super easy to apply, and the colour easy goes on - you don't have to press hard, which I have found with cheaper versions. The colour is lovely - for work I blended it with a brown shadow, and also used the pencil as eyeliner for a lighter look than my normal black. Will definitely use it when I feel like a bit of colour!

Tips: You don't need to press hard, it goes on really easily!

L'Oreal colour Riche Le crayon de couleur

I was sent this as a trial. It is very pigmented and vibrant. It was easy build up the colour and blend. Also it was very easy to remove. The only downside I found was when applying it was quite hard and had to use a bit a pressure which hurt my eyes a little bit.

Tips: It looks awesome when put in the inner corner, the first third of the lid or as eyeliner on the top lash line for a bright pop of colour.
