Beauty Tips: 5 Tricks To Keep Your Kajal Intact This Summer

Try these tricks to keep your Kohl picture perfect!

 

Kajal or Kohl is one of the most loved makeup kits of women across age groups. It can create bold, smoky as well as softer, more natural eye makeup. Kajal is often preferred for its ease of application. It can be used alone for a simple, everyday look or incorporated into more elaborate eye makeup looks. 

After applying kajal, set it with a matching eyeshadow or a translucent powder of similar colour. Use a small eyeshadow brush to gently apply and blend the powder over your kajal. This can help lock it in place and prevent smudging. Or, you can also lightly mist a waterproof setting spray over your entire face. This helps seal your makeup, including the kajal and provides additional protection against sweat and humidity.

Frequent rubbing or touching of your eyes can cause your kajal to smudge. Be mindful of this habit and avoid it as much as possible.

Applying kajal directly on the waterline can lead to quicker smudging due to moisture. Instead, apply kajal on the lash line or tightline, which is the area between the lashes and the waterline.

Before applying kajal, ensure your eye area is clean and oil-free. Use an oil-free cleanser or a gentle toner to remove any excess oil from your eyelids and lash line. Also, prep your eyelids by applying an eyeshadow primer or a small amount of foundation or concealer. This creates a smooth base for the kajal to adhere to, helping it stay in place.

Choose long-lasting and waterproof kajal formulas, specifically designed to withstand heat and humidity. These properties help prevent the kajal from smearing or transferring onto the eyelids or under-eye area. A kajal with a creamy and smooth texture glides effortlessly on the eyelids, making it easier to apply and blend. It should not feel too dry or tug on the delicate eye area.
