It was so much fun working on this song and I hope people enjoy it as much as I loved the process.”

Review - Olivia Kajal Is For Everyone!






.

The thinly brushed eye liner application needs a lot of perfection to draw smooth and neatly shaped eye-liners. Even after so many practices most of us end up with an irregular line that leads to doing the whole eye makeup again.

So, instead of creating all this mess, using a traditional kajal is the best alternative for creating a fine eye-liner style tidy line. It’s not only easy to use but also adds more glamour and dramatic look to eyes because of its dark pigmentation. Eye makeup cannot be completed without the use of a dark jet black eye-pencil, eye-liner and kajal.

We sisters have been using this black magical thing since childhood. We love to use it as an eye liner and eye pencil, it finishes our eye makeup with delicacy and accuracy. These days we are using Olivia brand’s Kajal Stick and here we are sharing our experience of Olivia Kajal with all of you.


Our Verdict

Olivia Kajal comes in a simple packaging with directions of how to use it on the backside. The bullet shaped long kajal stick is secured in a plastic body with a tightly fitted cap. 

Olivia products including this kajal are halal cosmetics and chemical free. The absence of harmful chemicals make all Olivia beauty products safe for use. The application of Olivia kajal is risk-free and it would not give you any eye irritation or teary eyes.

It gives a very dark pigmentation if applied with a touch of water. This kajal is slightly on the dry side, so if you want to draw a dark thick line, swipe it twice for your desired glamorised look. It works well as an eyeliner and eye pencil.


It is definitely not a very creamy formula and due to this it does not smudges easily, even in summers and high humidity. As Olivia’s kajal is almost smudge-free, it doesn’t go away in few hours. The staying power is around 6 to 8 hours.

It is very handy and can be carried in a small bag. School and college going young girls would love to add it in their cosmetic range. 

The price is so affordable that you will love to give it a try. It is truly budget friendly eye-makeup. We bought it from a local superstore for just Rs 50.

Availability

Olivia Kajal is easily available in all cosmetic shops, super markets and online stores.

Rating

Olivia Kajal stick is a great technique to add more classic definition to your eye-makeup. We are giving it 4.5 / 5.
