Himalaya Herbals Kajal

After using Lotus Kajal and the famous - Maybelline's Colossal Kajal for a while, I decided to give Himalaya Herbals Kajal a try . .

Kajal is very typical in Indian Makeup since the ancient times. Kohl or Kajal was majorly applied by the women in India - Besides women, small children and men also use to apply it as a protection from eye ailments.

Kajal use to provide relief from the sun's glare and was believed to ward off bad luck !!!It was traditionally prepared home - Of course now you can pick up kajal from any place.

So that's enough History of Kajal - Now coming back to our review - Today I will be reviewing Himalaya Herbals Kajal. It is surprising but I had not tried this kajal uptil now -- The first kajal I picked up belonged to Lotus Herbals and later I got hooked onto Maybelline's Colossal Kajal.



So when my package from Himalaya Herbals arrived, I was pleased to see this kajal in it. After trying this kajal for two weeks now - I am at the better position to review this product --- So here is my take on Himalaya Herbals Kajal

PRODUCT: Himalaya Herbal's Kajal
PRICE: 110 INR
QUANTITY: 2.7 gms




What the company claims? 
Enriched with Almond oil that nourishes your eye, keeps them cool and makes you look fresh and bright.


Ingredients:
Almond oil, Castor oil, Camphor, Damask Rose and Triphala.

Direction for use:
Apply the kajal within the lash line.    




The blackest of all kajals - Swatch of one swipe

Rub it once and it fades :( 



What I like about the Product:

The kajal was indeed - Blackest of all the kajal's I have used so far. I loved the texture of the kajal as it goes on very smooth on my lower lash line and even on the upper eye lids.

The first thing I noticed when I applied the kajal was the cooling effect it had on my eyes. The camphor in the kajal is responsible for cooling effect it leaves when applied.

This kajal is indeed nourishing for your eyes when I look at the ingredients it has - Almond oil and castor oil is good and nourishing for your eyes. Castor oil helps in growth of eye lashes. Damask Rose helps in preventing over straining to your eyes. Triphala acts as an anti-inflammatory substance.

The product comes in a very handy - travel friendly packaging. The quantity is also nice - will last longer and won't get over that easily.

The only thing that bothers me is the staying power of the kajal... It gets smothered and smudges your eye area very easily.

I would recommend Himalaya Herbals to work on a smudge proof kajal which would be a BIG HIT !!


How many of you use this kajal ??? 



Please note: Product sent by the company's PR for consideration.

Random Things i picked up past few days . . .

Hi again . . . I will just blabber about few things i picked up dis week and will be sharing with all of you my take on the products i picked up  :)



I had my friend pick up Colossal Kajal from Maybelline -- a must raved and reviewed product. I had to try this one myself to believe its awesomeness !!
Next i picked up these cute sandals along with my friend from our famous vile parle market.






Firstly, the Kajal ... This kajal is the super duper hero for all us girls who sweat out their ass in non-air conditioned rooms ( at least i do - in the sweaty dingy lab of mine). I got this kajal at a discount rate of 135 rupees from Beauty Store in Kandivli,Mumbai. The kajal lives upto its claim of being smudge proof and long lasting. It does not budge from my waterline like other kajal do. . This kajal stays put on my waterline for good 4-5 hours. It is the blackest black kajal i have seen. Unlike other kajal which comes in a lipstick like packaging.. this one is sleek and similar like - eye pencils in terms of packaging which can twisted up.

 Here are the swatches - --
Isn't the kajal the blackest black you ever seen ? ?  the swatch below is after swiping the kajal twice on the wrist . . :) 



After rubbing the kajal four times -- it still managed to stay a little bit.




KEEP IT OR CHUCK IT : Duh ! this product is definitely for KEEPS!!



NEXT, the sandals .. i wasn't looking anything to buy in particular but me n friend landed up checking out a new shop in the market.. since the shop is in vile parle - which is like a hub of many colleges, it had 10% discount offer to students who show their identity cards on the counter. ANYWAYS !! so i liked these sandals and picked them up for 445 bucks after discount !!



The shop had two colors for this sandals - Grey colored ones which i bought and other was BLACK AND RED ... i thought grey ones will go with everything i wear ... they are very comfy.. soft and the sole is of good quality too ... also the sandals have these Velcro straps which will PREVENT LOOSING MY SANDALS IN TRAINS ...hahahaa ... yes i have lost sandals and many other adorable footwear while travelling during peak hours in MUMBAI LOCALS...  

SO DO YOU LIKE THEM ??? let me know ...

till then ,
TRAVEL SAFE !!
