Beauty in Indian origin talks about Solah Shringar or the sixteen commandments of makeup. One of them called "kajal" or "kohl" is widely used in India since ancient times . A beautiful pair of kohl rimmed Eyes is quite a delight for the onlooker .
Eyes are accentuated with Anjana or Kohl or Kajal, which is applied on the edges of the eyelids to make the eyes look attractive.
