Kajal is very special to all Indian girls and women. Kajal/kohl pencils were introduced before we knew what eye makeup was. The classic lower waterline kajal look never goes out of style. You won’t get tired of it even if you wear it every day.
Aside from being bold and beautiful, kajal can easily create a variety of eye makeup looks. Our classic kajal has undergone numerous transformations over the years. Aside from black, there are numerous swoon-worthy colours on the market.
The intense black colour can be just as intimidating as our classic kajal/kohls. So let us show you how to apply kajal step by step and create the perfect kajal makeup look.
First and foremost, choose the correct kajal or eyeliner pencil. A kajal that is waterproof and smudge-proof is essential! In terms of kajal, this is something that cannot be compromised. Because of the intense colour of the kajal, it is very easy for it to spread and end up giving you panda eyes. So, if you want to avoid it, look for a kajal that is smudge-proof, waterproof, and, most importantly, ophthalmologically tested by experts.
We highly recommend the All-Day Comfort Kajal Liner. It has a deep black colour and a creamy formula for a silky glide. If you prefer coloured kajal, we have something for you as well. Consider using the Hi-Def Soothing Eyeliner Pencil. To match your colourful mood, this eyeliner pencil comes in two shades: Sapphire Blue and Earth Brown. They are infused with Argan Oil and Vitamin E to soothe your eyelids and provide all-day comfort. The creamy smooth formula glides on smoothly without tugging.
When you’ve found the ideal kajal, it’s time to ask the big question
How to Use Kajal Makeup on Your Eyes?
While the procedure and premises appear straightforward, the intense colour of kajal is both intimidating and easily misapplied. To help you feel less intimidated and avoid rookie mistakes, we’ve compiled a walk-through guide on how to apply kajal correctly.
#Choose an eye makeup look
This is an important step. You must be aware of the type of eye look you want to achieve. One Kajal pencil can be used to enhance a variety of eye shapes, including almond eyes, hooded eyes, close-set eyes, and many more. Choosing the kajal makeup look will save you a lot of time and trouble.
Eye Look 1: The Classic Kajal
The classic is a simple eye look that involves tightlining your lower and upper water lines to add depth to your eyes.
- Line your lower waterline with the All-Day Comfort Kajal. Take the lower lash line down slightly with your finger to reveal the lower water line.
- Keep the kajal on the inner corner of the eyes for the upper waterline. Close your eyes slowly while moving the kajal across the upper waterline. This will make it easier to line your upper water line and add depth to your everyday clean makeup look.
Eye Look 2: Drama in my eyes
This is a bold eye look. This bold eye look pairs well with both nude lipstick as well as bold red lipstick. With just two simple strokes, you can create a perfect festive or traditional eye makeup look.
- Draw a medium line very close to the upper and lower lash lines with the kajal pencil. Check that the line is clean and neat. If you make a mistake, clean it up with makeup remover on a Q-tip.
- You can leave it as is or add a little more drama with an angled brush and a wing to your kajal eye look.
Eye Look 3: Smudged Kajal Look
The smudged kajal look is popular among Indian women and teenage girls. It is both bold and elegant. With the addition of a bindi, this look is transformed into a femme fatale.
- Draw a thick line along the upper and lower lash lines with the eyeliner pencil. These lines don’t have to be perfect but make sure you don’t go too far with the thick lines.
- Blend the kajal onto your lid and lower the lash line with a blending brush. Gradually move the product around until you achieve the desired intensity, and voilà! You have a lovely smudged kajal look.
So, here are some easy and simple eye makeup looks that you can achieve with kajal and a few simple steps.
