Being an Indian woman eyeliner is a must for me on a daily basis, so I’m always on the hunt for the perfect eyeliner. I saw the good reviews for this product and decided to give it a try.
THE GOOD 1. Very creamy and smooth. It glides right onto your eyelids. 2. Does not irritate the eyes (I’m a contact lens wearer with sensitive and dry eyes) 3. Decent amount of pigmentation. (I posted swatches of this after a single and double swipe) 4. Comes with a smudger on the end of you’re trying to achieve a smokey eye.
THE BAD 1. Over priced for what you’re getting. 2. It doesnt last as long as I would like it to. My BIGGEST problem with this liner was that when I use it on my water line, after a few hours the color starts to run and gives me raccoon eyes. It gives the appearance of dark circles. 3. You need to buy a sharpener with this and sharpen it every time you use it, which for me is a hassle. I really wish they made this in a twist up tube. The nib tends to break a lot when you sharpen it, which can be frustrating if you’re in a rush. 4. This product will only last you a couple months provided that you use it everyday.
THE VERDICT I wouldn’t repurchase this. If you don’t wear contact lenses or have dry eyes I would recommend the Colorbar glide pencil.

I have ordered Lakme ash brown pencil based on Ankita Chaturvedi’s suggestion and I have received empty box 👎 , contacted help desk and they sent kajal Pencil in 24 hours 👍🏻. Thanks Amazon for resolving the issue in short span of time. Kajal is so smooth and glides on easily 😁 love the brown shade it is nice dark brown and can be used for daily use. Suits fair to medium complexion. I have sensitive and watery 👀 and was hesitant while placing the order but it did not disappoint me . Price is little high but I got it for 499 🙂. I will recommend this all who are looking nice dark brown pencil.

This is indeed a good kajal. But the only problem is it’s so smooth it’s breaks off while sharpening. And at the end when about an inch of pencil is left, it’s waste. There is no color at the end and it’s all broken pieces stuffed at the end. You cannot use the last inch of the pencil ever. I bought this pencil twice. That’s it, now never going to buy again as I faced the same problem with both the pencils.

As soon as I applied this kajal I fell in love with this. One of the smoothest kajal I’ve ever used. Pros: 1. Easy to apply 2. Extra smooth kajal 3. U can get a smudged look. 4. Blackest kajal 5. Stays all day like you applied it just now. 6. Easily removed by cream or eye makeup remover. 7. U can define your eyes as you want to. As it is in a pencil shape. 8. Feels like a cream in the form of kajal. 9. Pencil looks very attractive.
Cons: 1. No sharpner. I already had a lakme sharpner so I had no problem after buying this. But those who don’t have the sharpner, get a sharpner first. 2. Since its too smooth, you need to sharpen it almost after two use. 3. I apply a lot of kajal everyday. So for a user like me, its not suitable because if one use it everyday as a kajal and eyeliner then it would be finished within a month, considering its cost… Maybelline is far more better for everyday use. But this can be kept as a special Kajal which I’m doing now. 😀
In short its a good kajal but not for everyday use. If money is not a matter for you, then you can use it for everyday purpose as well.

I apply Kajal in two ways. 1. Where I apply a thick line of Kajal to lower lid 2. Where I apply gel liner on top lid and thin line of Kajal on lower lid. This product is more appropriate for use case one i.e. a thick line of kajal on lower lid. For use case two a retractable pencil kajal is more useful for getting better precision (I use MAC).
Pros: High pigmentation (retractable pencils from Lakme, Maybelline, Faces, Sugar etc. etc. do not compare) Smudge proof not smudge free (lasts 7 hours on me easily). How long it lasts on you will depend on your makeup base. I use products that impart oil free finish and hence this Kohl lasts longer on me. Easy to remove with oil based makeup removers (not with Garnier micellar water though) Has not once developed visible fungus growth over the years of usage (I have had bad experiences with retractable pencils which either develop fungus growth or dry up in few months)
Cons: Not for thin precise application. You are bound to get a thick application on lower lid with this product (not a con for me as that is my preferred style) Product wastage with sharpening, still delivers better value Staying power can be improved
My preferred combination -> This product + MAC technakohl (for precise lining) + Maybelline/ Loreal gel liner

Such an amazing product from Lakme. This has such an intense black color. This glides like butter onto your waterline and you get the color in one stroke itself. It has a smudger on the other tip, but you need a little bit practice to use this one. Cost is on a higher side for an Indian brand like Lakme. But the result is awesome. Recommend this.
