New Maybelline 12H Colossal Kajal Review, Swatches

New Maybelline 12H Colossal Kajal Review, Swatches
I had reviewed the Maybelline Colossal Kajal previously HERE. Now they have relaunched it in a darker and more long staying form..the previous one claimed 6 hours of wear and this one claims 12 hours..

Read on to know how it fares..

What the Company claims:

MRP: Rs.175/- for 0.35g

The packaging is the same..the same yellow swivel up mechanical pencil. Its nice, rich black and easy to apply..does not tug or pull.

Thats the whole qty

I did not like the previous one much..as it did not stay longer on my watery eyes..in fact no kohl stays longer than 2-3 hours on me..

But but this one did ! For almost 5-6 hours which is a very good thing considering my watery eyes. But it does smudge a little more than the previous one..that did not spread around giving raccoon eyes..this one does at times..

Here is the swatch..

L: Swatch R: After smudging

And on eyes..

Before, After

Pros:

1. Its nice dark black.
2. Glides on nicely..no tugging or pulling.
3. Reasonably priced.
4. Stays for 5-6 hours on my watery eyes ! Thats a long time for me 😀
5. It does not go away completely leaving your eyes bare..and there is always a hint of it till the time you remove it.
6. Does not smear much..the swatch did not budge from the hand.

Cons:

1. Claim of 12 hours..I am not really sure about.
2. No Ingredients mentioned.
3. Does give raccoon eyes at times..especially when eyes watery.

Rating:

Quality: 3.75/5
Value for money: 4/5
Availability: 4/5

Overall Rating: 3.75/5

Would I buy it again: Yes..I am pretty impressed by the staying power of this..much better than the previous one..

Have you tried the new 12 hour Maybelline Colossal Kajal ?

P.S: PR Sample. Honest Review

Maybelline Colossal Kajal Review

I got this kajal after hearing lots of ppl raving about it..Its a twist up mechanical pencil..and is nice dark black.

It claims to have
Mega Intensity + Mega Wear for 6 hours which equals to Colossal Striking Eyes

Well it has lot of product in it..and would last me a long time..

MRP: Rs 150/-

Shelf life: 24 months

This is how it looks on my eyes

Pros:

1. Its nice dark black.
2. Glides on nicely and is super soft.
3. Reasonably priced.
4. Does not spread or smudge much or give racoon eyes like a few herbal kajals.
5. I liked the yellow packaging.
6. It does not go away completely leaving your eyes bare..and there is a hint of it till the time you remove it.

Cons:

1. Claim of 6 hours staying power is wrong…it hardly stays for 2 hours.
2. It does get collected at the corners.
3. When I got wet in rain..it smudged too and gave me racoon eyes 🙁 So basically not meant for the rainy season.
4. No Ingredients mentioned…dont know what the 5 caring ingredients are :/

Would I buy it again: No…the only fact good about it..is that it does not smudge..but I am not impressed with the staying power…just another normal kajal
