You can work stunning deep, dark kohl eye makeup in three easy steps. Yes, it is that easy to copy. Here’s how you can do it.

dark and dramatic kohl eyes

Step 1:

Moisturise and prime your lids. It will make the eye makeup last longer and stay creaseless. Use the concealer first and then pack on a beige eyeshadow to make your eye makeup pop and come out real intense.

Step 2:

Take a black kohl pencil such as the Lakme Absolute Kohl Ultimate Kajal – Black and line your eyes with it. Glide the pencil along the rims of your eyes, fully framing them in a deep black hue.

Step 3:

Take an angled eyeshadow brush and smudge the lines on the upper lid just enough to soften the lines by blending it outwards. Smudge the kajal on the lower lid in the same way. Finish the look with a couple of coats of mascara.

BB pro tip: Create a soft wing by extending the lines on the outer corner of your eyes using the same angled brush, if you fancy a winged eye look.
