I recently shared the L’Oreal Paris Cannes collection on the blog and I decided to do individual swatches and review of the L’Oreal Paris products – Color Riche Extraordinaire, Gel Intenza 36h eyeliner, Color Riche Moist Matte lipsticks from the Cannes 2015 collection. I have shown the swatches on my arm in the collection post so in this post I have included FOTD so you can see how these products look on the eyes. Hope you find this useful!
I have done a video showing all the products from the newly launched Cannes collection. There are 9 products in this range – 3 gel liners, 3 matte lipsticks, 3 liquid lipsticks (glossy). Check out the video for details and swatches!

Claim: The Super Liner GELINTENZA gives an intense color payoff for a dramatic eye look. It is smudge-proof, waterproof and lasts 36 hours. The super smooth gel texture makes it easy to glide on the eyes and the quick dry formula make it perfect for women on the go. It is easy to remove with eye makeup remover.
Quantity: 2.8 g
Price: 875 INR
There are 5 shades in the LOreal Paris Gel Intenza range: Profound Black, Chic Brown, Diamond Black, Royal Blue, Sapphire Blue. The last three have been released in the Cannes collection. These do not seem to be limited edition shades and are wonderful for a dramatic eye look (of course they can be used to create subtle looks as well). I have now used all three and “Royal Blue” is now my official favorite shade. I cannot get enough of it!
Look at the intensity of those liners! These are so smooth and easy to apply, are shimmery so reflect light to make a simple eye look more dramatic than it actually is and stay on through the day!
Eyeliners are my favorite makeup products in fact I like to let my skin breathe most of the days and don’t wear foundations or BB creams daily but I like using eyeliners. I have tiny eyes (well, when compared to my face) so defined eyes make me feel fabulous without much effort. I usually go for liquid or pencil liners since I am lazy and hate cleaning brushes after using gel liner, but I must admit that gel liners always turn out better. They last longer, do not smudge a lot and can be smoked out!
L’Oreal Paris Gel Intenza waterproof 36 hour liners comes in a black cardboard packaging with all the details printed in gold. They come with a flat tip brush to apply the liner and the liner itself comes in a 2.8 g glass tub packaging. The packaging is pretty standard for gel liners, some companies use plastic though. So packaging wise it is good. The brush could have been smaller and pointier but I am able to maneuver it.
The liners are pretty smooth and have a good pigmentation (as seen in the swatches). They glide on the eyelids easily and take a little time to set but once they set, they stay for hours. The longest I have kept (Royal blue shade) is 13 hours and it stay put all day even for a 2 hour nap!
I have tried these liner in 2 ways and I think they lasted better with a primer. The time I applied them without a base, they faded a bit after 4-5 hours near the folds of my eyes ( droopy eyelids 🙁 ). So if you oily eyelids like me, having an eyeshadow or primer might make it last longer!
Did I mention these are waterproof? Well and they are still easy to remove, especially with oil-based makeup remover (I am using DHC Cleansing oil)
I have enjoyed using the eyeliners from L’Oreal Paris Super Liner range so I am glad that these did not disappoint me! I have been using these for a few days now and I will keep using these in rotation for a few more days regularly. If I have a new finding on the product, I do an updated review after a month or more. But for now I am so glad to have gotten the Gel Intenza eyeliners.

If you are into bold long-lasting eyeliners with shimmer, the L’Oreal Paris Gel Intenza waterproof eyeliners are for you. In case you prefer matte eyeliners, you may skip these three shades and look into the Profound Black and Chic Brown shades from this range. If I have to pick one (or recommend one) I would say definitely go for “04 Royal Blue” because it is rich and shows true to color and this shade is not easy to find in gel form!
