Eyeliner - Maybelline - Colossal Kajal Review

I have to admit that I just love this eyeliner - Colossal Kajal from Maybelline. I have listed out pros and cons below which will explain why I love this product.



PROS:
1. It’s black pigment is absolutely black.
2. It has a soft texture which is easy to put on. Slides real smooth and quick.
3. It is smudge free and lasts for hours.
4. At Rs. 150 it's a steal. Quite cheap for the quality.
7. It contains Vitamin E.

CONS: 
1. At the end of the day it requires a proper makeup remover or else it will not come off easily

That’s it. To sum up the review GO GET IT GIRLS, its worth it.

Ladies Alert: Be aware of the fake ones in the market. They looks exactly similar. How to spot the fake? Check the end of the pencil. The fake will have a flat surface, whereas the real one has a dent in it.

Beauty Tip of the Day – How to get rid of dark circles naturally

Can natural and home remedies be used to get rid of dark circles under eyes? 

Yes, using the ingredients like teabags, cucumber, massage, potatoes, cold spoons, adequate sleep, avocado, lemon juice, etc. which are readily available dark circles can be controlled or can be removed. Following are 2 of the tried and tested home remedies to remove dark circles

  • Extract the cucumber juice of around 3 grated cucumber pieces using a muslin cloth. Keep cotton balls or pads dipped in this juice for around 1 or 2 minutes. Place the cucumber juice soaked pads on your eyelids and around the darkened eye areas. Relax for 15 minutes. Repeat this for 2-3 days for best results.
  • Tomato can also be used similarly. Take 1 tablespoon of tomato juice or pulp which is freshly made. Add a pinch of turmeric powder and half a teaspoon lime juice and 1 teaspoon gram flour. Make a light, not so thick paste and apply over your eyes gently. Let it remain over your eyes for 15 minutes. Remove this paste with moist cotton pads or sponge. Repeat this alternate day for a week. A word of caution, tomato can dry out the very delicate under eye skin. Please avoid this home remedy if you have a dry skin.
