herbal kajal Archives - New Love

Yes…I mean the kohl which is jet dark black, stays long and smudges less and never gives panda eyes..passed the smudging and water test too..plus this one is very very cheap !

“Drum Rolls”

Its the Shingar Kajal Stick !

I have used loads of kajals till date and this is like so better..!

It actually costs Rs. 12/- ! Can you beat that..but this one is free with the Shingar Citrus Deo Talc..

Its a quite nice talc..and for the first time I saw Citrus Talc coz all I always see is Floral Talcs..and at Rs.35/- for 100g its quiet a steal plus you get the Shingar Kohl free..what more would one want..I think all of you must surely get it..

The Kohl waxy and jet dark black..has strong camphor smell which cools the eyes on application..but the pack it came with did not mention the ingredients..

See how dark it is

After lots of rubbing ! Still it did not go

After passing through flowing water

It comes in a conical shape like most kajals but its not in a retractable form.

Pros:

1. Jet black !
2. Very very economical..you get 1.5 g at 12..which is like super cheap and even if you are a person who changes kohl every 3-4 months for hygienic reasons..this would never pinch your pocket.
3. Has camphor and cools eyes.
4. Does not smudge much. (that rhymes :p)
5. Stays on for 3-4 hours..almost the same as Maybelline Colossal kajal and no Kohl stays longer on me.
6. Never gave raccoon eyes.

Cons:

1. No ingredients mentioned.
2. Availability might be an issue.

Overall I quite love it ! I used this in one eye and the Maybelline Colossal kajal on the other..and both looked the same, stayed the same and were same in all aspects like less smudging and no spreading around. In fact comparing the swatches Shingar kajal stick swatch stayed much longer on my hand and was not ready to budge ! This is surely a nice buy then coz Maybelline Colossal is priced at 150 and this at 12 ! 😀

Would I buy it again: Surely !

P.S: Product sent by brand for review but it has not affected my opinion.

I love love this Kajal…I have also used the Shahnaz Hussain one before..which comes in a black case with mirror…but that does smudge and after a month or so..the shape of the bullet turns round from pointed..and then you get a very thick line on the eyes..and that smudges more..so I got his later..

What the Company claims : 100% natural kajal that relaxes & soothes eyes through the day. Smudge-proof & long lasting, it contains botanical extracts of camphor & almond oil to pamper eyes & promote lash growth.

Key Ingredients: Camphor, Liquorice and Almond oil

MRP: Rs 115/- for 4 gm

Just 1 swipe..before smudging

After smudging..fades but still remains

Pros:

1. Its jet black and one swipe gives a nice dark look.
2. Has cooling effect on the eyes.
3. It smudges less than other herbal kajals.
4. Its safe for contact lens wearers as I am also the one and does not sting at all.
5. The bullet tip stays as it is,even after months…and thats the biggest plus point of this kajal unlike the Shahnaz Hussain one which goes round and you get a super thick line which smudges all the more.
6. Economical and stays a long long time.
7. You can get it anywhere..even at normal pharmacy..so availability is never a problem.
8. Very easy to even tightline the eyes with it.

Cons:

1. The cap is small and can be misplaced..so one has to be careful..as without the cap the kajal would get contaminated and would be of no use.
2. Its not completely smudge proof as no kajal is..

Would I buy it again: Yes..I would.

Now onto how to make your kajal stay longer on the eyes.

1. Apply a single layer of kajal and smudge it with your ring finger on the waterline..and then apply another single layer..this would help make it stay all day long.
Remember all kajals smudge..so the more thicker the layer..the more chances of getting raccoon eyes..I know many of us like the dark jet black look..but that will not stay longer and instead spread around eyes after some time.

2. After using kajal…you can set it with a black liquid liner on top…so that would lock the color in the eyes.

3. You can set it with a matte black eyeshadow..that would create a bridge in between..and it will absorb all the moisture from the eyes..making it stay longer.

4. Apply lots of loose powder or your compact around and under the eyes…as it would help keep the humidity and oils at bay and not smudging your kajal.

5. Use a primer on the lower lashline too if need be.

6. And if it smudges even after all this..carry Q tips and a cleanser or lacto calamine and just clean the area lightly.

7. Avoid using creams around the eye area before makeup as that would make it more messy.

And thats all…you can add some more tips of yours..I would love to hear it from you all.

Which kajal do you use ? How do you make it stay all day ?
