there is this great kajal its shaped like a small pen and one you open it its a pointy endless soft bar of kajal and you just open ur bottom eye lid and gently put the kajal on ur inner eyelid it works great ive been using it for years. its made by "Hashmi" brand and does sometimes spread but if you put a thin layer its just a perfect inner eye liner i get compliments everytime i wear it at weddings!!
Mascara I have only used DiorShow and would swear by it!**
i think wearing it on the bottom makes the eye look bigger.. i dont wear eye-liner on the top.. I used to but noy anymore.. not since i discovered the MAC mascara and kajal...
i looooooooove Kajal.. if u apply it properly the eyes look damn sexy
I either use Rimmel or Sleek. I really don’t know the difference like it just depends on how skilled and good you are doing it right? I like to leave a little flick and then just eye pencil the bottom eyelid. I like the Egyptian look but I soo don’t think it’ll work on me anyways so yeah
Girls please suggest an eyeliner (pencil) which doesnt smudge and stay in place! .. I have used Gosh, Estee Lauder and currently using HB and they all smudge or disappear after a few hours .. not as intense anymore :( .. please!!
Whether your eyeliner bleeds, disappears, smudges etc can depend on how teary your eyes are! MAC has a few different types of eyeliners (in response to Pakifairy's question!)
Please check ebay if you want to purchase hashmi product. Enter keywords : HASHMI KAJAL SURMA & user 'spicebazzar' is UK based n has few kajals available.
ASK99 - If you use eyeliner on the bottom only 1/3 way in - it suppose to make your eyes look bigger. If you line them all the way to the inside at the bottom - it's suppose to make your eyes look smaller.
I use urban decay eye liner in zero. It doesn't smudge and glides on super soft. It's hard to get off - you;ll have to wash your face with soap or eye makeup remover.
I don't do the kajal but would like to try a good one. I also heard it has lead in it. I think there are some other ones without lead but just make sure!
please cleaer one thing here, wen we apply eyeliner on the bottom only 1/3 way in, should we start wearing it from the outer corner covering 1/3 way or shud we start from the inner corner?
please clear that as i m very bad at makeup, specially eye liners, also suggest me which kajal/pencil/ eyelines should be used that leaves a long lasting effect and dont smudge???
i have big eyes and hate them!!! anyhow yes eyeliner on the lower lid does make them appear smaller i've noticed a giant different my eyes don't look nearly as frog like haha
sometimes i do like to wing out the ends and on days that i take the time to curl my super straight eyelashes i use very little liner on the top that way it looks a lot more natural and daytime friendly.
Oooh - this is a question that needs illustrations!! But since I can't right now....
Depending on how you put the eyeliner/shadow/kajal on, you can create very different looks.
From a 60's look with a liquid eyeliner, to a natural day look with a deep brown pencil....
The smokey eyes to the bollywood "china doll with too much makeup" look. Lol.
I'll post pics for examples when I hit my 25.....
Oh - P.S. I am a MUA (Make-up Artist), but not for weddings, more for art/fashion.
Hey u Hashmi girls, i read that a lot of the hashmi / surma / kohl / kajal stuff from pakistan contains lead and gives u lead poisoning. So i stopped using it, tho it was really good. They figured this out in some place in America.
i used this desi kajal
and my eyes starting hurting after a couple of days and when i luked i found out out it was like this pimpke thingy on my Lower lash line where id been using the kajal ..at first i thought it was something else but whenever i use it ..i get those pimples ...ughh

really looking forward for ur example pics and some tips n techniques for specially for giveing eyes a bigger look, as i m just a beginner , :(
Natasha.... you need to stop using that kajal ASAP. Those 'pimples' you're getting on your eyes can turn into a stye or chalazion, which is like a big bump on ur eyelid and can take months to go away, or if it gets really bad, you would need to have minor surgery to have it removed. Your eye is having an allergic reaction to the ingredients in your kajal, so please switch to a different brand.
