Black Color Kohl Eye Pencil Comparisons - Review Drugstore Brands

Every Girl ....Indian girl  at least  will have faced the smudged kohl liner dilemma. I ,personally love lining the lower eye line with Kohl stick. The only reason I don't apply it everyday is that it smudges and spreads all over my face after some hours. A lot of girls like me will be on the look out for the perfect kohl stick for day time use that will not smudge and spread so easily. I tested three sticks last week and I have finally found the winner. 

I tested 1) Lakme Kajal 2) Maybelline Colossal Kajal and 3) Lakme Eyeconic 

Ease of Use :

Winner : The Lakme Eyeconic Stick and Maybelline stick gives better grip and control over application because of the slim shape. Loser : The old school Lakme pencil being on the bulkier side is a tad bit difficult to control  

Aesthetic Value :

Winner : The Maybelline Colossal Kajal packaging is very eye catching 

Loser :  The packaging of both Lakme brands are a nondescript black in color 

Wear:

Winner : The Lakme eyeconic kajal is the longest lasting of all three eye pencils 

Loser : The old school Lakme stick smudges within 2 hours of application 

Fall Winter OOTD : Go Casual Chic in a Sleeveless Jacket

Finally,I have started to feel the weather change around me.Although I am not your typical winter person, I do enjoy the in between weather.This weekend was a pleasant weather weekend and fortunately not too chilly.It's that time of the year when you bring out your cozy warm winter wear out of the deeper ends of the wardrobe.This winter I am all about incorporating basics in my outfits and styling them in as many ways as possible.

This weekend,we decided to go to Select City Walk mall to meet up with some friends and to try out the newly inaugurated Burger King. But looking at the queue outside the place we decided to have a late lunch at Chilli's instead.I simply loved the burgers and fell hard for the strawberry lemonade.I also hopped in at Zara to get myself a new pair of winter boots.

I wore my Zara quilted leather flats for the outing as comfort is the key factor when I am looking forward to traipsing around in the mall for the whole day.I opted for a cool sleeveless jacket that I got from Asos and paired it with Zara leggings and United Colors Benetton basic white tee. I added a pop of color with my metallic green round frame glasses from Asos and a color blocked Bag from Accessorize.You can see how i styled it with Black on Black Outfit here

I love the casual chic vibe this light weight jacket adds to the outfit making it a perfect OOTD for a Fall winter weekend.

Website - The Luxe Cafe

I chanced upon the luxury e - magazine-TheLuxeCafe.com, when I was surfing the internet for some styling tips for my upcoming vacation 

I am absolutely addicted to this site. TheLuxeCafe.com is the place where I first came to know about the Makaibari tea from Darjeeling-India, which is the most expensive tea sold ever. 

Silver Sandals and the Beach

Goa can be pretty amazing when it rains . The overall monsoon vibe acts like the perfect setting to take blog photographs. Just enough light to lend a lazy ethereal quality to all pictures shot at the beach.

Black on Black like a #Boss

One of my favorite styling trick is to coordinate "On trend" pieces with some basic items from my closet all year round. One such piece that I absolutely love to style is my leather mini skirt . I have styled it for Fall as well as Spring in so many ways all year round.
