What do you think about the L'Oreal HIP cream eyeliner in the black color?

-Easy to apply?


-Long lasting?


-Easy to remove?


-Smudging etc?





Please and thanks.What do you think about the L'Oreal HIP cream eyeliner in the black color?
It's pretty easy to apply, especially if you've been using liquid eyeliner. I think it's a lot easier than liquid eyeliner. It doesn't smudge for me throughout the day and I don't have to reapply. I remove it using Ponds Cold Cream (with the green lid) or Neutrogena eye makeup remover (in the clear blue bottle) by soaking a q-tip and rubbing it over the eyeliner. It comes off easily.





I definitely recommend this product =)What do you think about the L'Oreal HIP cream eyeliner in the black color?
Yes that makes a good liner. You will need an ordinary eye pencil or a brush to apply it on your lid. The best way to remove it completely is using a make-up remover. It blends easily too. You can also try Fluidline cream liner by Mac. More make-up professionals are using it but HIP is already good though.
L'oreal dont test on Animals anymore.





I sent them a nasty explicit letter telling them what i thought, they replied and i have copied the reply below, obviously some of the ingredients will have been developed by testing on animals in the past but as for continuing with unneccessary animal testing they have stopped, but they are legally bound to test some of the ingredients as is explained in this letter:





Dear Madam,





I write with reference and in response to your recent query. I would like to reassure you with regard to our policy on animal testing and illustrate our commitment.








L'Oreal stopped animal testing on its entire range of cosmetic products fourteen years ago.





Last year alone, we spent over 拢lOm on funding alternatives to animal testing and have achieved some important successes, especially linked to the development of reconstructed skin models. These human skin models, developed from human skin cells by means of in vitro techniques, are used to obtain a better understanding of the biological mechanisms of skin and to evaluate the efficacy and tolerance of our products.





For twenty years we have supported both UK and international research organisations in the search for alternative safety testing methods. Moreover, we have also co-operated with our competitors in this common objective.


Our pledge is to make products that are safe for humans and safe for the environment. We want all our customers to be sure that they or their families will not come to any harm.





However, your and indeed everyone's confidence in safety is achieved because the chemical substances in cosmetics and, in fact, in most of the products that we use in our daily lives are legally required to have undergone compulsory safety tests which in some cases includes tests on animals. You may be interested to know that 99.7% of animal tests undertaken in Europe are for other purposes than cosmetics.





It is true that there are many different views and approaches to the issue of animal testing which we fully respect and understand. However, as is the case for the vast majority of other cosmetic companies we believe that a fixed cut off date is not an effective or practical means to reduce and eliminate animal testing. We believe firmly that dedicated scientific research into alternative methods is the only way which will enable chemical ingredient manufacturers in the future to stop all testing. L'Oreal does not undertake animal testing itselt but we remain committed to achieving the goal of a future without animal testing through the development of alternative testing methods.





Please be assured that at L'Oreal we are aware of your concerns and we are striving to achieve a common objective. Like you we do not want animal testing and we remain fully committed to finding alternatives.





Thank you again for contacting us and giving us the opportunity to respond.





Yours sincerely,
