Heyyy Girls!!!
I've been wanting to review today's product forever but somehow never got down to actually doing it. After I re-purchased it for the fourth time last weekend, I finally decided to write a post on one of my favourite kajal/kohl pencil.
Reviewing today, Maybelline Colossal Kajal.

Price : INR 150
Quantity : 0.35 gms.

I don't know where to start raving about this kajal. I love it sooooo much. Okay, lets begin with the mechanical, roller style pencil. I'm sure just like me, all you girl's must pretty much detest the sharpening part of the regular eye liner pencils. Any expensive eye pencil is not going to do even half the job unless it has a well sharpened tip.Hence, keeping your kajal in ship shape is essential for getting the striking, kohl lined eyes you desire.
Maybelline Colossal Kajal comes in a eye-catchy yellow mechanical pencil with the branding in black font. The pencil can be easily twisted open to reveal the kajal reducing wastage of time and product while manually sharpening. The kajal has a formula with 5 caring ingredients and is enriched with Vitamin E to soothe your eyes. The pigment of the kajal is dark and comes with the promise of no fading, smudging or budging. Let's find out if it stands true to its word.
Application :
Use as required on your lash line or water line.

Every Indian girl loves her kajal. If you are a daily kajal wearer like me, I would definitely suggest you try this one. With an extremely affordable price and long wear color pigment, this kajal is a dream come true for me. I wear it daily to the gym for my grueling work out routine and even at the end of it, while I'm dripping of sweat, this kajal still looks amazing in my eyes. This one gets a whole hearted recommendation from me.
Final Verdict :
Maybelline Colossal Kajal gets a 4.5/5 from me!
I am not much of a kajal person due to my small eyes :P But I use Lotus kajal whenever I do :)
ReplyDeleteGreat review!U r so passionate about makeup and skincare..;)
Hey Raaga,
ReplyDeleteI have small eyes too, get it from my mom's side in Dehradun ;-P Imo, small eyed girls like you and me, look much sexier when we wear kajal/kohl in our eyes, to quote an example Bollywood actresses, Priety Zinta and Udita Goswami.
And thanks for the kind words, I'm indeed obsessed about anything to do with beauty and fitness, this blog being my outlet :-D
Thnks for the review this will really help me. I will surely go and buy 1... always wannted to buy one good kajal... Have tried all possible brands MAC, himalay, lakme etc.. But not really convinced because of oily skin kajal spreads easily... Will surely try this 1... Thnks..
ReplyDeleteHey Pooja,
ReplyDeleteI've tried every possible brand too and was sooo glad when I found this one. I have combination-oily skin too, so hoping it will work for you as well it did for me.
Keep me posted on how you liked it!
Hey thanks a lot for review... Always wanted to buy a good kajal.. Hav tried all possible brands mac, lakeme, himalay etc... but was never convinced because of oily skin kajal speards easily.. Will definately try this 1... N its very reasonable also.. Thnks... Any suggestion for good mascara bcoz my eye lashes r very thin...
ReplyDeleteHey Pooja,
ReplyDeleteFor thin lashes you need volume. I suggest you try L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes mascara. I use it myself and have reviewed it on this blog. Read up and buy it if you like what you read/see.

ReplyDeletei am blessed with beutiful big eyes.. dats wat ppl say me.. vei excited to use the kajal but it hasnt reached my town.. :-(
ReplyDeletecan any1 tell me can we put this kajal as eyeliner
ReplyDeleteYou could try lining your lash line with Maybelline Colossal kajal but make sure to use an eye base/primer benath it to prevent smudging and extend the wear time.
Deletehey himanshi...i hav a big bulgy eyes!!!
ReplyDeletehow can i shape them wid kajal...plzz tel me
Hey Harshita,
ReplyDeleteIf you have big eyes, I suggest you line them with a thin, fine line on the waterline. Also, a fine line on the lashline would look pretty. Since your eyes will already call for attention, avoid doing too much eye makeup all at the same time. Opt for brown liners over black for day time or when you want to underplay your eyes.
Hope this helps!
