    Hello everyone!
    I hope you and your family are keeping healthy and staying safe. I'm currently working on my graduation project where I'm trying to understand the relationship between beauty and personal grooming. I would love to hear your thoughts on the same!
    I'd really appreciate it if you'd take five minutes of your time to fill in this quick survey.

    I was taught by my mom to make it by taking a whole almond, dipping it into ghee(use a needle to hold it), then holding it over a ghee fire (cotton wick) until it is charcoal. Then strain it thru a very fine cloth and use with castor oil. Didn't know there were so many ways to make it! Interesting!

It was my eyeliner and my mascara during all my teenagehood and my college studies.

    The South Indian way of making homemade Kajal is as follows:
    Make a fine paste of sandalwood by rubbing the pure wood on a flat soft stone mortar & a fine paste of Hirda & both to be mixed well & applied on the bottom of a clay pot.
    The wick is made out of a cotten cloth 6"×6" & is soaked in the juice of Bringiraj plant leaves & dried in sunlight- repeat for for 5days
    Keep it on a mud Diya. Caster Oil is used to lit the wick & the pot with the above paste with some support to allow air.
    The black soot formed is then mixed with castor oil & stored in a silver container for use.
    Sandal / Hirda / Castor oil will give cooling effect to the eyes & Bringiraj will improve the eye sight

    Wow!!! Thank you for making this video. Recently as I’m getting more organized I purchase a eye liner case and I thought it’s time to collect eyeliners!!! Which I have 5-8 of blue shade but in black shade I only have couple and indian mesh Kajaal small case. Every time I try pencil eyeliner it does not set in proper or gets rub on and becomes Smokey eye!!! Than I tried my indian mesh Kajal indian way with finger and Voila!!!! It stayed perfect!!!! Not just that my eyes dint burn and was very soothing like the hair oil scalp!!! I dap the black finger on my side burns that covered my greys!!! And it’s I believe less than a $1!!!! Thankfully I have not collected and done enough damage to my hair, eyes or body as every time I get excited to try and shop and collect I somehow end up stepping back and going desi ways!!!! Not only it’s cheap but it’s all organic natural and soothing!!!! One reason I look so young 😁😎✌️as I appreciate old traditions👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 . Although I never ever knew kajal is made this way!!!! Thank you for making this video and educating me.
