L’Oreal Paris Kajal Magique Features
- The mineral pigments in this product give it that intense black color.
- Smudge proof and waterproof.
- Comes in a retractable twistup style packaging.
Pigmentation: Thanks to a new generation formula, the pigmentation of the Loreal Paris Kajal Magique is incredibly black. The product contains mineral pigments which are responsible for that deep, intense black color.
Texture: It’s extremely smooth, so it goes on very well. It’s not a matte product but the texture allows the deep black to stand out against your skin.
Pros
- Contact lens friendly—The Loreal Paris Kajal Magique can be used by contact lens wearers without any worry.
- Ophthalmologist tested—For those of you that may worry if this kajal is safe enough for your eyes, rest assured, it’s completely safe!
- Intense black finish—Just watch yourself after the finishing touches.
- Smudge proof for 5-6 hours—Worried about the Kajal spreading all over your eyes and looking like a raccoon? Well, your worry is over as the L’Oréal Paris Kajal Magique does well to stay in its place without smudging.
Cons
Fades away in a few hours—If you’re someone who has oily skin, then you probably understand the struggle of finding a Kajal that stays in place. This one leaves the water line in a few hours but doesn’t smudge too much.
My Overview On Its Performance
After using it on a regular basis, I found that it does not live up to the 12-hour staying power claim. However, it does stay put without smudging for 5-6 hours which is pretty decent considering the price of the product. It takes a few swipes to achieve that intense black shade, but it is there nonetheless. The packaging of the product makes it easy to carry around everywhere, and the retractable style of it prevents any wastage of the product which is a huge plus over the kajals that you would have to sharpen to use. That’s another thing worth mentioning. The size of the product is just perfect. It’s not too thick, and in case one is looking for a thicker eyeliner look, it can always be built up.
How To Use/Apply L’Oreal Paris Kajal Magique?
The best part of this product is that it can be used in multiple ways. It can be used on the waterline, lashline and your eyelids. Its intense payoff makes it perfect for a smoky eye as well!
- Step 1: Peel off the paper packaging from the back.
- Step 2: Remove the cap at the top and check to see if there’s enough product to apply.
- Step 3: Twist the product from the bottom in case you need more.
- Step 4: Swipe it onto your lash line. Add another coat if required.
