I love wearing browns. Brown on the eyes and orange on the lips works so well on my warm yellow skin. Does not matter that the orange starts looking like hot pink on my lips within few minutes of application.Weird? Exactly. I should get one of those brown rainbow eyeshadow refill from Inglot. I already own few brown eye liners. But few does not cut it u know ;) So I had to get the Lakme eyeconic color kajal in Brown.
The Eyeconic kajal in Brown comes in the same packaging as that of the normal Lakme Eyeconic kajal. Same black/blue packaging but instead of Lakme written in the bottom, we have the color written. Brown in this case. Practical packaging and travel friendly. Nothing fancy.
Priced at Rs. 250 while the black one retails for Rs.200. Still works cheaper than other brands or Lakme Absolute range.
The shade is deep chocolate brown with slight hints of black. Not a blackened brown though, If u get wat I mean.
Totally matte and works great for office wear. If u shy away from deep blacks then u must try this. Subtle yet defines the eyes beautifully :)
Is smooth and creamy. Does not break though and glides like butter over the eyes. I used it on my waterline and it did not sting my eyes.
The pigmentation is good. If u have really pigmented lids, it might not show up. Brown is like that sigh! But nothing a concealer can't fix :)
Lasts for 7-8 hours on my waterline and nearly 10 hrs on my upper lash line with slight fading. I did not find it smudging but I got dry eyes and kajals hardly smudge on me.
The kajal is waterproof and smudge proof. Once it sets, does not budge instead fades to non existence :P But no kohled eyes work better than panda eyes any day.
VERDICT :
I love my Maybelline Swirl Gel Liner in Brown but this pencil liner is easier to use and budget friendly. I will definitely re purchase this liner when it gets over which it will as it has become my everyday staple.
P.s. : Watch this space for the review of the blue shade from the range. Another pretty one :)
