Colossal Kajal by Maybelline Review
What sets NYC cabs apart from the rest of the world? The yellow yellow naughty fellow colour! And I guess that’s what inspired Maybelline for the packaging of their very popular The Colossal series which includes a mascara and kajal which I will review and swatch today. And it makes sense since its a New York brand. See how these little cues tell us a lot about brands and their origins. You know what else the kohl reminds me of? The lab coats White and Jesse wear in the meth lab in Breaking Bad (I super love the show..Yo biaaaatch!) You know what else it reminds me of? Sarojini Nagar
Maybelline Claims: The deepest black Kajal, creates bold lines & is smudge free for up to 12 hours. Add intense drama to your eyes with the blackest black eye kajal from Maybelline. A pencil kajal that gives bold lines, glossy shine and glides on smoothly. Maybelline Colossal Kajal is totally smudge-free and water resistant. It is enriched with Vitamin E that soothes the eyes and prevents irritation. Opthalmologically tested & suitable for contact lens users. Read more here
The colour is blacker than the other retractable kohls I have tried. The finish is matte which I love. Although I like dewy kajals but then they smudge easily so mattes are more logicial. It reminds me of the gel liner by Maybelline. I’m not saying they are same but both of them have the same matte finish I like.
Even though its matte, it never tugs or pulls and applies easily. I like the way it fades. It starts fading after 5-6 hours from my waterline but doesn’t smudge and goes all across my face but disappears magically without giving me those raccoon eyes. Its safe to apply and never irritates my eyes.

Pros of Maybelline Colossal Kajal:
- Matte finish
- Dark black colour but you still need a couple of swipes
- More affordable than Eyeconic and Kajal Magique
- Soft and creamy to apply
- No irritation on eyes
- Doesn’t smudge much on my slightly oily lids
Cons of Maybelline Colossal Kajal:
- Doesn’t stay for 12hrs as claimed
- You need atleast 2 swipes for the intense black finish
Price: Rs.175
VNA Rating: 4.25/5
So is it for you? Maybelline Colossal Kajal is a dark black kohl with a matte finish. Its quite long lasting and doesn’t smudge much. Its a hot favourite among Indian girls and now I know why.

Lovely review Anshita, I haven’t tried this one, guess I should give it a try now, it’s never too late for trying great products :D
I feel like trying all the kajals in india now!
I have them. Not as good as my Lakme Absolute Kohl, but best for the price. Nice review darling :)
absolute is in a high price category na..in this range this is a good option
I just love it and used 2-3 pencils of it but right now m using Eye conic and loving it equally! :)
Nicely reviewed!
even i love both of them
I have tried these when they were first introduced few years back. It never showed up on my waterline.. Maybe the recent ones have better formulae…
try the new one now and see if it works
Nice review! I like this so far but Technakohl is still my fav. :)
I need to try technakohl now
Sounds great. So far I have been loving the Rimmel scandaleyes kohl, it is a gel in a pencil liner and it is AWESOME! :)
its also reviewed on blog :)
the black is so intense.
not really!
Woudl you believe that I have not tried this one yet? Got to grab it soon!
u should!
Gotta try soon, :)
do!
My old one is coming to an end, will try this one next.
which one r u using right now?
Nice review. I have tried this and it’s a pretty decent product/
thanks!
I like this one for waterline a lot as it is not too creamy and therefore stays in place for long :))
exactly my point
It is a good budget kajal, but it never lasts for more than 4-5 hours on me :(
even 4-5 hours in summers is enough for me :P
nice review for girls ! :D
