This crayon-like eye pencil delivers intense color and versatility
One of the most commonly used beauty products from the region is of course, kohl. This secret beauty must-have that dates back to ancient times, has now been recreated by Yves Saint Laurent. Their latest Couture Kajal, is a multi-tasking,a 3-in-1 kohl, liner and shadow.
Perfect for creating graphic lines, smudgy edges or a smoky shadow, the pencil applies smoothly without any tug and is available in 4 ultra-pigmented shades (Noir Ardent – black, Bleu Cobalt – cobalt blue, Bleu Petrole – petrol blue and Vert Anglais – dark emerald green). The best part is you’ll never need to sharpen this eyeliner, its unique shape allows its point to always be perfectly sharp.
To use as eyeliner, starting from the inner corner of the eye draw a fine line along the base of the lashes. To use as a kohl, draw inside the eye using the tip of the cone and glide the texture outside of the eye using the side of the cone, then smudge the color with your fingers. To use as an eyeshadow, apply generously across the eyelid using the side of the cone, starting from the outside and working toward the inner corner of the eyelid. Blend with your fingers for a smoky shadow effect.
Yves Saint Laurent Couture Kajal is available for 176 AED at Paris Gallery in Abu Dhabi Mall.
