Kajals and kajal in eyes, magical and mesmerising, this one has always caught the fantasies of the poets and the writers. Dark kajal eyes have always been mysterious, fanning the fiction and giving rise to many heroines who eventually donned it, whether on paper and on the screen, ever to capture the heart of the hero and run towards their happily ever after. Just one eye stick or as it started, an eye pot, full of dark substance crafted from the most natural ingredients, for that was best dark kajal for eyes was all about, goodness that could improve vision and soothe the eyes. With time, of course, the vision of black kajal eyes changed in itself, and it changed quite a lot.
Kajal became a staple for everyone. From the most glamorous woman out there stepping out onto the red carpet, or an everyday one going to the grocery store. Or the girls rebelling and creating almost pands eyes at home. And yet, it was limited to one gender, making the front profile and eyes of a woman shine. There was no mention of anyone else. However, an ideological evolution was on its way as well. As makeup went gender neutral and more and more people, despite their sexual preferences and gender leaning found makeup as a way to express themselves, dark kajal eyes became goth and more, a part of the expression shown on the face. This kajal was the same, the usage expanded over various geographies and demographics, regardless of who was using it.
While all of this was good, there was something disturbing as well, and that was the chemical composition steadily manifesting itself in our favourite product. In the hustling lives when everyone wanted a product that could give jet black finish in one go and a product that could last super long without multiple touch-ups, the natural component went from low to nil quite quickly. And it was replaced with chemicals that were super harmful and could cause allergies and toxicities that were irrepairable and irreversible. Parabens, carbon black were a common part of our friendly everyday kajal, the long lasting for eyes that we were using everyday or maybe every night as well. This one was suiting all the looks, indoor as well as outdoors. Whether you wanted to create that office look or dating look, or that outdoor touring look or adventure look, or even the kickass party look, kajal was helping you get all of it and more, but at a terrible cost. The chemicals were having their side effects one after the other. We’d become used to the devil.
There was a gap that needed to be addressed quickly. Hence, makeup brands came up with the idea of clean beauty and makeup. Now, this one was a beauty that was 360-degree clean and conscious. This was vegan and cruelty free for a guilt free use, at the same time it was toxicity free so that you are free from the side effects of the chemicals used inside. But, did that mean you had to say goodbye to dark kajal eyes? No, that’s where the catch lies. The brands came up with natural alternatives that could be used instead of the chemical ones. The challenge was to retain all the goodness of colour and infuse ones of care, to create highly pigmented and long lasting kajal for eyes that could benefit, just like the pot kajals that our ancestors used before us, or the ones the beauties of Egypt used all those thousands of years ago.
So, what are these magic eye sticks? A lot, in fact, these can also double up as a vegan eyeshadow stick, or even an eyeliner. Reducing the need for multiple products is also a great and smart step towards a sustainable tomorrow and safe you, today. Let’s take a look at some of these best kajal for eyes that are smudgeproof, waterproof, dark and clean. Plus, they are affordable, striking a balance between all the goodness and the price. Hush, no more beating around the bush. Let us give you the best that clean beauty has to offer, for eyes.

You can also use this to create an entire eye look, as an eyeshadow stick at times, if you know how to smudge it quickly because it sets in pretty quickly.

#2 Kiro Beauty Waterproof Soft-Matte Eyeliner Pen
Available for INR 900 (Shop Now)
Well, not exactly a kajal, but surely an integral part of the eyes makeup that helps enhance features of face, when you are up for it. Also, the pen format and quick dry texture allows you more precision while drawing across your lashlines, which gives it an edge over kajal, which is in a waxy format (even though the aforementioned one is not made of waxes, we are toxicity free, remember?). This is free of toxic and harmful ingredients, and crafted out of everything natural, with the help of new-age technology. This means every time you apply this to your eyes, you care for it as well. The staying power is super long and the pigmentation super dark, making this a staple eyes makeup product, complimenting your kajal. You can use this to create the outer lines and fill in and tightline, to create dark kajal eyes like none other and that last all day or all night long depending on your preference. This is the eyeliner you want, the comfortable and jet black soft-matte finish that you’d get addicted to.
