I had in my mind few colored eyeliner shades, and wanted to see how it would look on me. I am very fond of black eyeliner & kohl. But with the advent of the colored eyeliners I had to try different shades just to experiment! I tried a green shade (Maybelline Vivid Smooth Liner by Eye Studio Shade Peacock Green ) that rocked completely and recently got LAKMÉ ABSOLUTE FOREVER SILK EYELINER in shade Electric Violet!
What the product claims: (as taken from Lakme India Website)
The soft, creamy texture with Vitamin E moisturizes and creates metallic hues for your eyes with a single stroke application. Enjoy smudge free, water-proof metallic shine that lasts up to 8 hours.
- Vitamin E
- Lasts up to 8 hours

Price: INR 425/- ; Net wt. – 0.28 g ; Shelf life: just the use before date mentioned, my liner has 05/2016
My Experience With LAKMÉ ABSOLUTE FOREVER SILK EYELINER In Shade Electric Violet
Lakme absolute forever silk eyeliner is available in 6 shades. It’s a one way twist up pencil, the lid of which cannot be drawn back so be careful while using it and twist up only the required product 😛 . The shade as the name suggests is Violet in color! Its has a metallic touch to it!
Metallic fashion is trending, it’s been here for quite some time now and it adds a dash of glamour to a regular liner! This shade looks quite fresh on my eyes. Such a gorgeous bright shade that would lift up the look in seconds! The blue line on the cap indicates the color inside.
Lakme’s Forever silk eye liner is soft and creamy in texture and glides so smoothly as if we swatch a body butter on our hand! The feel is light on the eyes. It stayed on my lids for more than 4-5 hours!
Forever Silk eyeliner from Lakme is waterproof, smudge proof and dermatologically tested too which means that it is safe for sensitive eyes as well. I have used this as an eye liner and base as well and both ways it worked great! I have used this on the waterline as well. It didnt sting my eyes but if you have very sensitive eyes be a little cautious 🙂
This twist up pencil is so pigmented that just one swipe and the shade is there on your eye lids.
Swatch & how it looks after few hours on me – Lakme absolute forever silk eyeliner Electric Violet

1) The twist up product cannot be drawn back! 🙁
2) If the twist fails, you won’t be able to use the liner…(lol), just though to mention a very obvious point 😛
3) Looking at the net weight, it’s a little pricey.
