Applying kajal (kohl) is a simple yet effective way to accentuate your eyes and enhance your overall look. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you apply kajal the right way:

### Step-by-Step Guide

#### 1. Prepare Your Eyes

Before applying kajal, ensure your eyes and the surrounding area are clean. Remove any traces of makeup, oil, or dirt using a gentle cleanser or makeup remover. Pat the area dry with a soft towel.

#### 2. Prime Your Eyes

Apply a thin layer of eye primer or foundation around your eyes. This helps in creating a smooth base and increases the longevity of the kajal.

#### 3. Choose the Right Kajal

Select a matte kohl pencil or stick that is of good quality. Opt for one that is smudge-proof and long-lasting. A creamy, smooth-textured kajal glides on easily without tugging on your delicate eye area.

#### 4. Begin with the Lower Waterline

Start by pulling down your lower eyelid gently with your non-dominant hand. With your dominant hand, apply the kajal starting from the outer corner of your eye and moving towards the inner corner. For a more intense look, you can apply multiple layers.

#### 5. Upper Waterline (Tightlining)

For a fuller lash look, apply kajal to your upper waterline. Look down and gently lift your upper eyelid. Apply the kajal from the outer to the inner corner of your eye. Tightlining gives the appearance of thicker lashes and adds depth to your eyes.

#### 6. Smudge for a Smokey Effect

If you prefer a smokey look, gently smudge the kajal along your lower lash line using a small smudging brush or a cotton swab. This creates a soft, blended effect.

#### 7. Set with Powder (Optional)

To prevent smudging and ensure longevity, lightly dust some translucent powder under your eyes after applying the kajal. This step is especially useful for those with oily skin or in humid conditions.

#### 8. Additional Touches

You can also apply kajal along your upper lash line for a more dramatic effect. Extend it slightly beyond the outer corner of your eyes for a subtle winged look.

### Tips for Perfect Kajal Application

- Steady Hands: Rest your elbow on a flat surface while applying kajal to keep your hand steady.

- Avoid Over-Applying: Too much kajal can make your eyes look smaller. Apply just enough to define your eyes.

- Hydration: Keep your kajal pencil sharpened for precise application, and ensure it is well-hydrated to avoid dryness and breakage.

- Removal: At the end of the day, remove kajal with a good-quality makeup remover to avoid eye irritation and infections.

By following these steps, you can achieve a well-defined, striking look with your kajal, making your eyes the focal point of your makeup.
