My views on Maybelline Colossal Kajal :

This is my favourite kajal..i have ever used..i love the kajals/eye liners available in India..they r intense black and lasts long.i have used Boots eyeliner when i was in UK,but its not jet black .

I use this Maybelline Colossal Kajal on water line  and upper lash line too.i have very sensitive eyes,it doesnt cause any irritation till now..the only draw back of this is ..no Ingredients list mentioned for this product !!

It claims to be smudge proof...but its not 100% smudge proof !! but anyways i am totally impressed with the staying power,intensity and the color....i am running out of this now..this is my last one..now i am in search for a best kajal available in USA..if u have any suggestions pls let me know ..

wearable Soft Purple smokey eye : step by step Tutorial !!

Guest post By  : Chhavi Choudhury

Hi Everyone Thanks for stopping !!

In this post I will be sharing with you a Pictorial on how to create a wearable Soft Purple smokey eye. I have used CoverGirl’s Eye Enhancers 4-Kit Shadows in the color Blossom  . To Know the step by step instructions of how i created this look..please keep on reading !!

This is the eye shadow palette i used to craete the look,to know the detailed review of this palette ,read Here

Here is the step by step instructions : you can get this simple and wearable soft purple smokey eye look in these 10 steps.

Step 1:

Start with a clean face. Apply a good eye shadow base primer to help your shadows last longer.

Step 2:

Place the shimmery pink shadow (color number 1) all over the lid using a flat shader brush. Pack the color on really well as this color will be the main focus of the look. Make sure to not take the color above the socket of the eye.

Step 3:

Use the indigo color (color number 2) in the crease to deepen it a little bit. This is a matte shade which is perfect for crease. Use a blending brush to place the color and blend it out well. 

Step 4:

Use the lavender color (Color number 3) on a fluffier blending brush and blend the color on your orbital bone. This step helps create a beautiful gradient.  Use this color with light hand on the outer one third of the eye.

Step 5:

Take the lightest shade (color number 4) on an angled flat blending brush and tap of the excess. Now place the brush under the arch of your brow bone. Start at that point in wind shield wiper motion and blend the color. 

Step 6:

To complete a smokey eye look, it is important to smoke out your bottom lashes as it helps balance out everything. Use the indigo color (color number 2) to smoke out the outer half of the bottom eyelid. Connect the shadow on the bottom lid to the shadow on the top eye lid. Use a pencil brush for this step.

Step 7:

Take the pinky color (color number 1) on the pencil brush and place it on the inner half of the bottom lid and around the tear duct. This color looks beautiful on the tear duct and in the inner half of the bottom lid. 

Step 8:

Line the upper eyelid using a matte gel eye liner. Extend the eyeliner to give a slight wing.

Step 9:

Use Mascara on top and bottom lashes. Try to use any mascara that gives good volume to your lashes. This eliminates the necessity of false eye lashes.

Step 10:

Tight line your eyes to intensify the smokiness.

Now the eyes are done. The result is a soft purply smokey eye look. It is important to pair up smokey eyes with a complimenting lip color. For full face of makeup look complementing this eye makeup, click Here
