| Maybelline Kajal VS Lakme Kajal |
I personally consider the Lakme Kajal
to be the best budget kajal and that is a completely personal choice.
I am testing two of these most used kajal from Maybelline and
Lakme on a few grounds and let us see how these perform.

| Maybelline Kajal VS Lakme Kajal |
Longevity-
Maybelline Colossal Kajal (MCK):-
Stays for 4-5 hours on the waterline and stays on the eyelids for almost
the whole day without smudging.
Lakme Kajal (LK):- Stays
for 3-4 hours on the waterline and stays on the eyelids for the whole day but
gets smudged.
Finish-
MCK:- Is less pigmented
than the Lakme Kajal and has no shine or glossiness.
LK: - A very dark glossy black
finish.
Smudging -
MCK:- Smudges slightly
when rubbed
LK:- Smudges a lot when
rubbed.

with a makeup remover.

a makeup remover.

LK:- Doesn’t burn my eyes when on waterline.

LK:- 50 INR

Wastage –
MCK:- The bullet of kajal
breaks sometimes and gets messy.
LK:- Pencil has to be sharpened but the wastage is
okay given the quantity.
***I skipped out on testing how water proof these two are but if you would like to know that let me know in the comments and I will update that as well.
So, I like Lakme Kajal for my everyday use, especially when
I am in a hurry and Maybelline when I know I am going to be out for a long time
and need the kajal to last a long time.
Which one would you pick for your everyday use??
