Biotique Naturals Bio Kaajal ~ Review and swatches

How happy I was when I swatched this kohl stick on my hand,, glossy black,,super pretty,,felt like my quest for the perfect black glossy kohl has finally ended!! but no,,how can I find the perfect one untill n unless I spend loads on these kohl sticks.

This is how it looks on my eyes.

Read futher as to why I am so upset with it.

As per the packaging :
This soothing eyeliner is made in the traditional Ayurvedic manner, blended with pure sesame oil, sweet almond oil and extracts of eclipta alba, indian gooseberry and berberis aristata.
Nourishes the eye area and leaves the eyes sparkling. Also promotes eyelash growth

Bio Kaajal  :
Nourishing and Conditioning eye liner. Kaajal has been used since the Bronze age to protect eyes against glaring sun and irritations, and to darken eyelids for a stunning smoky look.

As per me :
I like how glossy and black this kaajal is but then it smudges like anything,,, already I am facing dark circle problems and to top that this kohl stick makes me look like I am sick or sth.
I have used it only once and am no more going to use it, so all you sweet people kindly comment on what can I do with this Kohl stick.

Shade :
Glossy Deep Black shade

Its twice as deeper as shown in the pic below :)

Staying power :
It stays on water line for around 1 hour, then it has its own mood of travelling down and stays on the under eye area for as long as you don't see your face in a mirror or someone points you out that why the hell have you used kaajal underneath your eye lids :\

Ingredient List :

Impressive but blahh!! It smudges so no use of pondering over the seemingly  good stuff present in it.

Packaging :
Dislike,, Boring, unattractive and everytime you will swivel the bullet up the tip of the kaajal will be broken. Maybe its with the one I have but since I am not going to buy it again so I have to  tell this also.

Quantity :
.2 oz / 3 gm

Price :
INR 99

Recommendation : No please,, there are many good ones out there.

My favorite Kaajal till date :

1. Maybelline Colossal Kaajal , review here
2. Lotus Herbals Kaajal , review here

Thanks

  3. Maybe you can use this as a base for smokey eye looks? I love kajals. I collect them. I just got the VLCC kajal in the mail today, shipped to me all the way from India. It's too bad this didn't work out for you. I was thinking of getting a Biotique kajal online, but now I know I should avoid this.

    1. Hie Christina :) thanks for the suggestion girl :) I haven;t tried the VLCC one yet,,how is it?

  4. *In a nostalgic tone* There was a time when I used to wear kajal too.
    But yes, now that so many smudge-proof liners are available I have totally stopped using kajals. They are great, but only on those who these stay. Usually my kajals also travel all around my eyes. That's why I stopped using them.
    Here is a suggestion if I may, on your lower lash line use the kajal as you would and then, top it off with a liquid liner, This way, the soft contours a kajal give to the lower lashline remains, while it becomes intense and smudge-proof. That is how I use up my kajals.
    let me know if you like the idea or if it works for you :)

    1. Thanks a bunch sweetheart :) ur 2 sweet <3 I get bored easily so I am always on the look out for something diff :D
      Yes I will try that idea for sure,,gives me a reason to buy a liquid liner too ;)
      I use lakme satin kajal too, its good n smudges less,, colossal is good and smudges minimum, bt after using it for a year I kind of got bore with it ,, so m using the lotus one now.. I have a habit of rubbing kajal on my eyes to get thick black outline but now I only swipe it twice n it don't smudge,,bt i miss my heavy kohl eyes.. ;(

      Thanks :) :)

    2. A friend's sister was searching for a name for her new born daughter. I have always liked yours so recommended that. They wanted to know the meaning that's why I asked. They loved your name and guess what? There is now a little girl called Namita Khan this side of the border :)Oh and my name is Shazia. Shazia Ali.

    3. OMG You have not even the faintest Idea how fortunate I am feeling right now :D a baby named Namita :) :)awwwww Thanks so much Shazia you have made me so so happy :)

      Give my love to Namita Khan :D :D :) God Bless her with all the good things in this world and may she always always smile :)

      And Shazia :) your name is so pretty and may I say elegant :) It means someone who is unique and precious right.. :)

    4. I will definitely convey your wishes to her parents :)
      Oh wow! You know the meaning of my name!! It's a pretty common name here in Pakistan. Parents had zero imagination lol
      Cheers!

    5. Thanks :) please do that for me :)
      Yes yes I know the meaning of your name :) It is so pretty girl :)
      Shazia also means happiness along with being unique & precious,,Is there any better name to welcome a daughter?? :) Your parents chose a very beautiful name :)
      And you know what,,my name was chosen by my elder brother ,he was 3 yrs old at my birth and his nursery teachers name was Namita,,so he said to my maa and papa that my sister's name will only be Namita and nothing else,,he said she is pretty like my Mam so my sister will only be named Namita and nothing else..
      we do have a Naming ceremony and me being a Punjabi/Sikh was supposed to have one and then only would my name's letter had been found but no my brother refused to let anyone change my name :D :D

      :) :)

  17. Omg!! Namita... I jus bought this kajal yesterday... It smudges but I found out how to make it smudge proof... It will work well if before applying it we use dry foundation or wet settling compact... (I used Maybelline wet compact) in the under eye area... I also found its on 6th position amongst top ten Kajals in India... Btw your dp is too cute... And no racism here but me too Punjabi... So same pinch girl<3 :):*
