Hello beautiful ladies,
Colossal kohl’s new range is definitely a treat for all
coloured kajal lovers. Yes I am an addict of coloured kajals and liners so
there was no point that I miss this latest product in my vanity box. I was
totally mesmerized by the model wearing it so I gave it a try. While I was
searching few products online I spotted this one and bought it from a local
store because I was restless to try it. Previously I purchased the Colossal
turquoise which marked a good impression on me so I had high expectations from
this range too. This new range comes in two other variants also namely Smoked
Silver and Jewelled Jade.
Impression of Maybelline Colossal Kohl Crushed Emerald
Packaging-Colossal Kohl Crushed Emerald has a packaging
similar to Colossal Turquoise. It has the same yellow colour tube with the
details printed in colour of kohl itself. The green colour strip makes it easy
to identify the shade. Colossal Kohl is a twist up kajal which doesn’t have an
outer plastic covering like the one we get for other colossal range. The
packaging is sturdy and travel friendly.
Shade- The shade depicted by the model endorsing it is different from what I can perceive. She is wearing intense dark green matte kohl which is very well defined. This is what tempted me to purchase it. Crushed emerald is a rich vibrant emerald colour with faint shimmer. These shimmers add a rich look to eyes but the colour is not as profound as shown by model but still I like the shade. Since I was expecting dark matte kohl the cover girl totally mislead me.

Pigmentation is
average and not as deep as I was expecting from colossal range still the shade
intensifies on multiple swipes and single swapping won’t work. It glides evenly
on lids and defines your eyes like any other kajal but not as precisely like a
liner as it claims.
Durability-The kohl is waterproof and does not come out on
washing face but is not smudge proof. I tried rubbing my eyes which is my usual
habit and I noticed it fading. This was so disappointing and I tried this many
times to ensure myself completely. It has a good staying power and stays on my
eyelids decently for 6-8 hours without fading. Oil based cleanser removes the
eyeliner completely so removal is not a problem.
