Black Beauty – Colorbar’s Just Smoky Kajal (Just Black 001) – Review and Swatch

Hey girls,

Today I’m reviewing a very basic and integral part of our daily makeup routine – kajal pencil. I’ve spent nearly 10 years of my life, since college, in indentifying the kajal that suits me, doesn’t smudge or just vanishes in a while. In the quest of finding the right kajal, I have tried at least 10 brands and haven’t really been satisfied with any.

I recently bought Colorbar’s Just Smoky Kajal  (Just Black 001), and have fallen in love with it. It comes with a soft spongy smudger at the other end of the pencil.

My Review:

This is the most favorite part of my makeup kit. It is creamy matte jet black shade. The pencil glides like butter, on the waterline and lash line alike. It gives a dark, prominent and velvety appearance. I have very shaky hands when it comes to applying an eye liner, but this pencil is so smooth, it makes the task seem so effortless, with no trouble to the eyelids.

The brand claims that it stays the whole day and I have found this to be true. I’m used to rubbing my eyes without thinking about my eye makeup…and this product has been quite handy that ways 🙂 no touch up required during the day. And yes, it’s waterproof..yayyy! 🙂

The smudger at the back is amazing too. A slight smudging of the liner with the cushion sponge provided in the pencil gives subtle expert-like smoky eyes.

A very helpful product for makeup amateurs 😉

What works:

  • Long stay
  • Creamy jet black texture
  • 3-in-1 product
  • Requires just a single application for perfect kohled eyes
  • Easy application

What doesn’t:

  • It needs to be sharpened, hence wastage of the product

Overall Rating: 4.9/5

Love,
