Company Says: - The new Eyeconic Kajal by Lakmé is literally iconic as all you need is one sweep of kajal and it lasts for 10 hours. The product is waterproof, it doesn’t smudge and it is even safe for the eyes since it is dermatologist tested.   

10 hours     No Smudge      Waterproof        Dermatologically Tested

 

Ingredients: - Not listed

My Opinion: - For me kajal is a must, I have been applying kajal on my eyes since I was hardly 15. I still do till this day. Kajal adds definition and depth to the eyes. I apply kajal on my waterline as well as I line the upper lid with it. Today I am reviewing this newly launched Lakme Eyeconic Kajal as I have used it for more than 10 days and I am happy with its performance. The packaging is sleek and it looks like a black plastic pen with a similar cap which clicks shut tight. It can be thrown into the purse without worry. And since it’s very slim and trendy, I don’t mind carrying it around with me in my purse for touch ups.

              This kajal is not very creamy and intense black as well. A couple of swipes are required to build up the intensity. But it glides on my lids without pulling or tugging. The Eyeconic kajal is matte and has no glossy effect to it. I use it as suggested by the company and truly it does not smudge on my oily lids. I have to swipe atleast twice on my lids and 3-4 times on my waterline for an intense black line. In an air-conditioned environment, it stays put for about 5 hours on my waterline and 8 hours max on my lids after which it starts to fade off a little. But in non air-conditioned environment, it fades and smudges a little on my waterline after 3 hours and simply fades off on my lids after 6 ½-7 hours. The 10 hour claim is not true.

                    The company rightly says that this kajal is smudge proof and after it sets in (after 2 mins), it cannot be smudged. But touching the eyelids with fingers can ruin and smudge the line. I have not done any eye makeup look with this kajal and I have been using it on my naked lids (powdered) and I am quite happy with the results. Since Lakme says that this kajal has been dermatologically tested so it feels safe to use it daily and with lens too (yes I am a chashmish :D). one big drawback is that the ingredients are not listed on the pack. And I don’t know what’s this fuss is all about using the Bi-phased Makeup Remover. Plain almond oil works well to remove all the traces of this kajal from my eyes. But simply washing off with water won’t help as it is truly waterproof and face washes also don’t help much.
