Maybelline Colossal Kohl Turquoise Review

Hola my cuties! How are you enjoying the monsoon drizzle? I am sipping lots of green tea because I ate a lot of yummy "Death By Chocolate Cake" ordered for my birthday. For someone like me who hates bitter tasting things, green tea is definitely not a favorite. But as we are finally planning our long pending honeymoon at an exotic destination, I have to look fit. I want to go to some place where there will be crystal clear turquoise water. I just love the sight of the sea and enjoy listening to the splash ocean waves. The turquoise color reminds me so much of the sea. Being a sea lover, how could I miss using Maybelline Colossal Kohl Turquoise? When I received Maybelline Colossal Kohl Turquoise in the Diva Likes beauty haul, my happiness had no bounds. I loved it a lot and held it in my hands as if I was holding a bit of an exotic ocean in my palms. I am reviewing the same today and I seriously hope all the color shy beauties could break the myth of hiding beautiful eyes behind black kohl and splash some turquoise on to it.

My Experience With Maybelline Colossal Kohl Turquoise:

"Blue eyes hypnotize..", this song sung by "Yo Yo Honey Singh" goes over and over in my mind ever since I started using Maybelline Colossal Kohl Turquoise. This comes in a classic packaging of Maybelline Colossal style yellow twist up pen which is totally cute. The pen is sturdy, sleek and travel friendly. The creamy and soft tip of the kohl glides easily like butter on your eyes. One very attractive thing about Maybelline Colossal range is, it never irritates my eyes and does not make them feel cakey. It has minute glitters in the kohl which gives a lovely sheen in presence of abundant light. If I talk about the look after application, I would say it's not like the normal innocent look and that is why I am in love with. If you are wearing it with a base of black kohl or without it, it will give the same result which is perfect. There is no need for multiple swipes. Just one swipe is good enough for the accurate look. I have even conducted a smudge test and it hardly smudges after rubbing it.

I would say this kohl is a budget buy, keeping in mind the quality of this beauty. The kohl almost never smudges till it is rubbed on very hard. The pigmentation and glitter do not spread even on my waterline. It stays as long as 8 hours without any problem. I have kept it on my hand to test for 12 hours and it did not fade off completely till I removed it with a cleanser. It is absolutely waterproof and stays intact if plain water is used on it. I totally love this one and have received many compliments for the same. Whether I am going out with my girl friends or my hubby, no one seems to ignore my turquoise eyes. The base kohl used on my eyes is L'Oreal Color Riche Le Kohl Midnight Black. I will be reviewing it soon.
