Common questions
What is kohl eyeliner?
Kohl eyeliner is a soft, highly blendable eye pencil made with finely milled pigments. It applies creamy rather than firm, so it glides along the lash line instead of dragging. That softness is what makes it work for both a natural line and a smudged, smoky finish, and it is why kohl has stayed in makeup bags for as long as it has.
What is the difference between a kohl pencil and a regular eyeliner pencil?
A kohl pencil is softer and creamier, so it blends and smudges easily for a smoky look. A regular eyeliner pencil is firmer, which gives a sharper line that stays put. Pick kohl when you want to blend the line out, and a firm pencil when you want it to stay crisp.
Is a kohl eyeliner pencil good for sensitive eyes?
This one is fragrance free, which matters, since fragrance is a common reason eyes sting or water. The soft formula also means less pressure and less dragging along the lash line than a hard pencil. Anyone who wears contact lenses or reacts to eye makeup should still patch test first and stop using it if the eye becomes irritated.
How do you keep kohl eyeliner from smudging?
Set it. Press a matte eyeshadow in a similar shade over the line with a small brush, and the powder holds the creamy formula in place. Skipping eye cream directly on the lash line before application helps too. If you want it to stay sharp all day without setting, a firmer pencil or a gel liner is the better tool.
Where can you buy kohl eyeliner that is not full of fragrance?
Most drugstore kohl pencils carry added fragrance. This one does not, and it is made with the same hypoallergenic ingredients as the rest of the Kinetics range. It ships direct from Kinetics Cosmetics, so you are buying from the people who make it rather than through a reseller.
