Kajal Hacks You Didn’t Know About! Tips to Prevent Smudging

By Khadija Beauty @khadijabeauty3

If you like being low-key in terms of dressing up and applying makeup, you’re like most of the girls. The best way to dress down your look while still looking chic is to apply kajal. Kohl’s eyes look best when you want to go for a makeup-free look on regular days. 

Whether you’re simply running errands on the weekend or have to attend a quick virtual meeting with your boss, look presentable while still being low-key by applying kohl. You can even upgrade this look minimally by applying mascara to make your eyes look bigger. 

Do you usually apply kajal, but it smudges around your eyes, making you look like a racoon? To avoid smudging of kohl, we have some amazing makeup hacks, which will ensure your kajal doesn’t smudge and is long-lasting.

Apply it in a precise way:

The way you apply kohl predicts whether it will smudge or not. If you precisely apply it to your waterline, it won’t smudge. But if you happen to swipe it across even a tad bit below your waterline, chances are, the kohl will smudge soon.

Use foundation before kohl:

Just like you use a primer before applying makeup, you can use a foundation on your eyes as a primer before applying kohl. Blend the foundation well to avoid a cakey effect, and then swipe your kohl across your eyelids for a long-lasting effect. 

Avoid lining inner corners:

The inner corners of the eyes are usually moist, and most of the makeup starts trickling down from there. So, avoid lining the inner corners of your eyes, or you can even apply a white eyeshadow or a white liner to get a natural makeup look. This trick will make your eyes pop up. Follow it up with mascara, which will make your eyes look bigger and brighter.

Make a dry base before applying kajal:

If you have oily skin, your kajal is bound to smudge sooner or later. To avoid this makeup faux pas, make a dry base before applying kohl. Use a compact powder or a white eyeshadow on your eyelids, which will absorb the oil and give you a smooth and dry base to apply kohl. You can even dab some loose powder on your eyelids and dust off the excess before applying kohl.

Apply an additional eyeliner coat:

Coating your kohl with eyeliner is a full-proof way to keep it from smudging. Once you apply your kajal, trace it over with an eyeliner, which will also make sure you get a more defined rich look. Let it dry and finish your eye makeup routine with a few strokes of mascara.

With these makeup hacks, you can ensure your kohl won’t smudge. Of course, to make sure your eye makeup doesn’t smudge, you must invest in high-quality products which are formulated to last long. Good brands promise good returns, so don’t settle for cheaper kohl brands that will make you look like a raccoon in the middle of the day.
